Routines have their charm, with familiar cafes, beaches, or bars ensuring a good time in Brisbane. But, if you’re seeking fun things to do in Brisbane, it’s time to shake things up!
Get ready to embark on extra special adventures! We’ve compiled a list of seven unique experiences that every adult in Brisbane should try this summer. Keep reading to uncover your next thrilling escapade.
1. Arcadium Adventures
Spring Hill
And last but definitely not least in our humble opinion, what’s better than an adventure at Arcadium followed by a celebratory drink in our bar!
At Arcadium Adventures, enter into the realms of Mystery and Magic with your team for adventures full of riddles and puzzles that are sure to get your brain going. Once you’ve managed to unravel the mysteries within your chosen realm, you can pop into the Arcadium Bar and enjoy one of our fantasy cocktails, beers, or wines!
There’s a lot of fun to be had for the big kids out there in Brisbane, so why not take a break from your standard pub night and try something new? We’ll be waiting for you here at Arcadium Adventures!
2. Maniax
Newstead
If you’ve been particularly stressed out lately and need an effective way to release that energy, we have just the place for you: Maniax.
Maniax is an axe-throwing bar, which might sound too intense at first, but believe us, it makes for an awesome night out. For $45, you can throw axes for one whole hour, after an introduction on safety and a brief coaching session. Once you feel relaxed and good as new, you’ll have some nice brews and snacks waiting for you!
3. Zero Latency
Newstead
Virtual reality is slowly but surely taking over the world, and Zero Latency is making that trend by creating the ‘world’s greatest free-roam virtual reality experiences’.
What exactly does that mean, you may ask? There are eight games you can choose from, including ‘Zombie Survival’, ‘Outbreak Origins’, and ‘Undead Arena’. Once you know which one you want to go for, you simply put a VR headset on, get a backpack, and pick up the controller. After you’re fully equipped… you just go for it and play a video game in real life!
4. B. Lucky and Sons
Fortitude Valley
Yes, we love a good game night and here’s our second arcade suggestion: B. Lucky and Sons.
“Not your average arcade” is how they describes themselves, and once you take a look at the variety of games they have, it becomes clear why. From Mario Kart to Space Invaders, NBA Hoops to dance games; at B. Lucky and Sons there’s something for everyone.
Besides the games, the arcade also has an irresistible menu, with a luscious list of liquors and sangas for all tastes.
5. Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq
Toombul
If you know you want to have a night like no other, but can’t decide which activity to go for, Archie Brothers Cirque Electriq is the spot for you.
Why? It has all sorts of games you and your mates can enjoy, including arcade, VR, bowling, bumper cars, and even more! Plus, the Rando Sando menu and the crazy, colourful cocktails make it even more irresistible.
6. iPong
Macgregor
Imagine the classic game of beer pong, but with a tech twist: that’s what iPong is all about. In this unique bar, you can claim a table and play (see: drink beers) all night long, while enjoying some mouth-watering snacks. If you get tired of beer pong, there’s always some darts waiting for you too.
7. Netherworld
Fortitude Valley
Pinball machines, arcade machines, classic consoles, and all the board games you can think of: that’s exactly what you’ll find at Netherworld.
But that’s not all! While you enjoy some friendly competition with your mates at this arcade, you can drink one of their 24 local beers, ciders, and mixed elixirs. Combine all that with their delicious vegan bites, like the Mimic Mac & Cheese or the Munchkin Mushies, and you have the recipe for an unforgettable night.
