The Experience

In Pursuit of Repetitive Beats is a euphoric, interactive VR adventure that transports audiences back to the West Midlands in 1989, during the early days of the Acid House movement.

Open daily from 19 July - 1 September, Monday - Thursday 1pm - 8pm, Friday - Sunday 10am - 10pm.

Pre-booking essential.

From poster-strewn bedrooms to pirate radio stations, police headquarters to secret warehouses, you’ll step-into the shoes of West Midlands rave culture pioneers as you go in search of the party.

Witness this social phenomenon first-hand, in an immersive exhibition and explorable virtual world set at the end of a turbulent decade in the UK. Combining Acid House tracks with interactivity and multi-sensory simulation.

In Pursuit of Repetitive Beats brings to life the stories of the promoters, police officers, and rave-goers, whose rivalries and relationships drove a revolution in music and society.

Book your ticket back to 1989 to share in an experience that shaped a generation; to feel the anticipation, the trepidation, the excitement, and the euphoria, that was Acid House.
