It’s a grand day out. We hope to see you there!
Enter through the Nexus portal and discover your skills and build your party to complete the ultimate quest! Rely on your individual wits, or the combined skills of your group to overcome fun and interactive challenges and tasks as you navigate the different realms. Explore the realm of Ages Past and encounter the fanfare and battles of the Vikings, Knights and Pirates. Will you be able to convince these brave warriors and rapscallions to give you the clues you need? Journey through Fae & Goblin Town to discover the magic of the fae folk, the nature elements, and the hidden secrets of the mermaids. Beware, for not is all as it seems in this realm! Step into the future and the past with the Time Travelers. Appreciate the dapper things in life, learn the proper etiquette of refined time traveling, learn to dance, and even have a spot O’ tea along the way! Get lost in the Borderlands where you will navigate through the strange, the obscure and the weird. While you are busy saving the realms playing the interactive Portal Quest, you will also enjoy an opportunity to shop for unique wares and treasures. Fill up on some good food and delicacies of all kinds or visit the 3 (21+) taverns—one in each realm—and stay for the evening performances and entertainment line-up!
