Downtown Ann Arbor gained Sandbox VR’s second Michigan location after the company held a soft opening on June 12 at 215 E. Washington St.
The nearly 5,500-square-foot venue targets groups of two to six, with four private rooms, a party room and more than 10 bookable experiences including Squid Game Virtuals, Stranger Things: Catalyst and Age of Dinosaurs.
Owner Anil Nichenametla said he chose Ann Arbor for its lively atmosphere and because Michigan still has relatively few VR spaces; he added the site was busy with back-to-back Father’s Day reservations.
Prices start at $57 per guest, sessions run in roughly 30-minute increments, and participants receive a video of their experience afterward.
The opening expands a franchise that already has more than 80 locations worldwide and about 150,000 monthly players, following its first Michigan site in Royal Oak.
