In pursuit of repetitive beats: experience rave culture at the PHI Centre

In the late '80s, the "raves" phenomenon was in full bloom in the U.K. Of course, it left no one indifferent: fear, hatred, or adoration. You even had to hide from the police for these parties to occur! Want to (re)experience this unparalleled musical era? The PHI Centre and technology take you to the heart of this underground and confidential England, in the shoes of fans ready to dance…

"This interactive documentary virtual reality experience transports you to the scene of a typical rave, accompanied by the sounds of old-school Acid House. Grab a flyer and set off with your friends in search of an illegal rave, somewhere in a secret location near the city of Coventry. You start by listening to tunes at home, then scout dark, empty rest stops for isolated phone booths to receive the information, then finally experience the euphoric release at the party."

Good to know: plan to arrive 15 minutes before the start time indicated on your ticket. 45 minutes are required for the experience.

N.B.: Schedules and more details can be found directly on the company's website.
