HologramZoo & Holosports Darwin brings virtual reality, holographic shows and arcade gaming together at Gateway Extra Shopping Centre in Yarrawonga, Palmerston. The venue is designed for families, friends, groups, first-time visitors and date nights, with experiences available for individuals as well as larger parties and corporate events.

The VR offering ranges from motion-based rides to more interactive games. Its VR Theme Park includes experiences such as Dragon Rides, Magic UFO, Drop Tower, Battle 4, Racing Car and Treadmill, while the immersive arcade is built around the idea of placing players inside the action. Visitors can also try multiplayer VR escape games for groups of two to four, working as a team through scenarios that would be impossible or unsafe in real life.

Hologram experiences provide a different kind of attraction, with shows including Dinosaur Encounter, Under the Deep Ocean and Monster Escape. The site also describes a space-themed journey through other galaxies and a holographic sports room featuring activities inspired by table tennis, swimming, running and archery. Hologram room hire runs as a group experience, with the venue stating that each room can accommodate a show of around 40 to 50 minutes and includes three arcade games.

For a more traditional arcade session, there are more than 15 games and attractions, covering car racing, moto bike, basketball, boxing, air hockey, bowling, whack-a-mole, sniper games and hologram gaming. The venue also promotes birthday packages with decorations and refreshments, and has an RC car collection for children and enthusiasts. With options that range from competitive two-player games to shared rides and team-based adventures, it suits mixed-age groups looking for an active indoor outing in Palmerston.
