About this event
New research from Virgin Media O2 has revealed that parents are worried that outdoor play no longer provides their children with the stimulation they need.
That’s why Virgin Media O2 is launching a first-of-its-kind Connected Playground to get those creative juices flowing and introduce children to a different type of play. The playground will be a vibrant, interactive, and fun experience for children, blending hyper-fast connectivity with lights, sound and physical play – all thanks to the power of Virgin Media O2’s network!
The playground equipment, including climbing apparatus, a slide and swings, will be fitted with sensors, pressure pads and infrared beams, and children will be tasked with creating their very own music track as they play on each piece of equipment. Each interaction will influence and alter the song meaning children will need to play smart and tap into their creativity to create the perfect tune. Once completed, the child can download their curated soundtrack to take home as an unforgettable memory.
To give as many people as possible the chance to experience the Virgin Media O2 Connected Playground, we ask that you book no more than one session per person. One ticket is entry for three persons. Tickets are free of charge.
We can't wait to see you there!
