-Permanent closure May 7th-
It’s with a heavy heart we are announcing the closure of Arcadia Virtual Reality after 7 long years, filled with wonderful times in both the virtual and physical realms.
We want to thank our team of VR Ambassadors for the many years of outstanding customer service and the friendships made along the way that will outlast our last days.
We also want to thank the wonderful people of kelowna and the out of town visitors who came and experienced what virtual reality has to offer with us.
While the pandemic offered the roughest times for small businesses, most aren’t out of the throes of the impact yet. While it may be too late for us at this point we ask that you go support the local Mom and Pop shops around Kelowna.
Our friends
Kelowna Brewing Company
Freddy’s Brew Pub
and
Sweetnam’s Nik Naks
Among many more, would appreciate your support and are amazing local businesses run by lovely human beings that have been nothing but wonderful to work side by side with over the years.
We want to thank all of you for the support we’ve had over the years, we’ve made many a friend, shared plenty of laughs and had the best of times both inside and outside of the game.
Our last day of operation will be Monday May 6th so we hope you can come enjoy the virtual world with us before then and keep your eyes peeled for our “Going Out with a Bang!” Final party/Nerd n Brew.
We’re sad to go but it’s been a heck of a time. Keep exploring virtual reality tech, keep playing, and keep your nerd on!
Thank you all for everything!
Erik, Peter & Jennifer Madsen
And the whole Arcadia family.
