It doesn’t matter whether you love your work or hate it, a good work-life balance is often difficult for many in the entertainment business to achieve. 

It’s indisputable: ever since the very start, escape rooms have been an incredible hit across the world.

Thinking about becoming a VR operator? Whether you’ve got an existing business or you’re starting a whole new one, you’ve probably got a lot on your mind.

Entertainment businesses are no strangers to large group bookings.

And with the vaccine rollout, these bookings are back. Whether we’re talking corporate team building events, children’s birthday parties, or bachelor/bachelorette parties, there’s nothing your bottom line loves more than knowing you’ve got 20, 30 — even 40 or more people booked.

Running an entertainment business? You’ve heard of VR by now. Chances are, you’ve seen competitors sign on, and you’re starting to wonder, am I ready?

When it comes to new technology like virtual reality, there’s a fairly predictable adoption life cycle that describes who buys in and when as it becomes successful.

Along with VR came a new kind of business: the VR arcade. Typically, people come in, pay a fee, and play some VR games for a while. With the majority of people not owning their own VR headsets, it’s a business model that seems to make sense.

By now, pretty much everyone is aware that virtual reality is a thing. They’re at least vaguely aware that you put a device on your face and interact with some sort of video game or other software. Chances are they haven’t actually tried it, though.

Every FEC is different. Laser tag, arcades, kids’ play equipment, restaurants, games, axe throwing — there’s always something new you can add. A unique blend of activities that works for your local market. The latest in location-based entertainment alongside the old, reliable staples.

And with the season only a couple of months off, it’s an event that many businesses will be acting on now to ensure they get their slice.
