VR Canberra - Virtual Reality Games and Rides

Last updated February 2026

VR Canberra offers immersive virtual reality gaming experiences in the heart of Mitchell's retail precinct. The venue features multiple VR stations with a variety of games and experiences suitable for different ages, from adventure quests to puzzle-solving challenges. Located in a convenient shopping complex on Lysaght Street, it provides a climate-controlled indoor activity that works year-round. The facility combines cutting-edge VR technology with family-friendly gameplay options. **What to Bring** Comfortable closed-toe shoes for standing and moving around. Hair ties for long hair to prevent tangling with headsets. Small bag or pockets for phones and valuables while playing. **Best Age Range** Best for ages 8 and up due to VR headset sizing and content complexity. Younger children may find the headsets too heavy or experience motion sensitivity. Teens and adults typically get the most immersive experience. **Good to Know** Bookings recommended, especially for weekends and school holidays. Free parking available in the shopping complex. Sessions typically run 15-30 minutes depending on the experience chosen. Can get busy after school hours and weekend afternoons. **Nearby** Mitchell Markets operates on Saturdays for fresh produce and local goods. EPIC (Exhibition Park) is a short drive away with regular events and showgrounds. **Tips From Other Parents** Book online ahead of time as walk-ins often have long waits on weekends. Let kids know they can take breaks if feeling motion sick - it's completely normal. Arrive 10 minutes early to get familiar with equipment and safety briefing.
