(Updated 19 June, 2021)
The Sydney launch of SHOWTIME, a new immersive experience which will see roaming acts take the funtertainment of Archie Brothers to new heights finally launched this weekend. Just in time for the new extension to any unised Discover NSW vouchers you may still have too. Originally, it was meant to coincide on the weekend of Brisbane and Melbourne’s SHOWTIME debut last month, but was delayed due to the temporary restrictions that came into effect. Beginning July 10, weekends at Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq go into high gear as the most talked about entertainment space of dodgems, arcades, thrillrides, laser tag and bowling gets a super boost of fun-hancements that constitute the new pop-up everyone on the east coast has been talking about.
As punters enter the odyssey of activities, wonderland interiors, captivating scents of sweets and buttered popcorn, roaming performers and acts will delight with laughs and gasps, fortunes will be told through tarot readings, balloon making shows, and patrons being transformed into moving art with stations of face painting.
