Redline VR Hosting Summer “Ren Faire Pop-Up,” June 23 - July 1
Catch an experience fit for Kings and Queens this summer at Redline VR!
This June, Redline VR will transport their bar into renaissance times fit for kings and queens during the “Ren Faire Pop-Up.” The pop-up will run for two weekends, Fridays, June 23 and 30 and Saturdays June 24 and July 1, starting at 7 p.m. This unique pop up event will feature themed VR games and cocktails, live acrobatics, tarot and palm readings, magic and costume contests.
Headlining the Saturday, July 1 show at 8 p.m. is Tiny Girl Big Show, performed by Leah Orleans. Pushing the limits of capability, independence and charm, this original one-woman circus extravaganza is a rollercoaster ride of smarts, skill and sparkle. Her show aims to bring joy, authenticity and jaw dropping tricks to audiences–and she can shoot a bow and arrow with her feet!
Redline VR will also offer two “Family Ren Faire Pop-Ups” from 3 - 6 p.m. Saturdays, June 24 and July 1, which will include crafts and activities, face painting and a stage play aimed at a wider range of audiences.
