NEW THIS YEAR
The VR Theater is showing one, 1-hour program of the best of VR narratives, so every ticket is same experience. Showtimes begin 15 minutes in advance of start to encourage early arrival. No-shows forfeit seats to the waitlist 10 minutes prior to show start.
Eliminate wait time for the VR Theater Kiosks and Immersive Pavilion Arcade! As a pilot at SIGGRAPH 2019, these Experience Hall venues will allow participants to sign up on a first-come, first-served basis. Show up early to sign up for the waitlist, then explore the rest of South Hall K while you wait your turn. When your time comes, our system will text you. If you fail to show up within 10 minutes of receiving a text, we will move on to the next person on our list.
