F1 Arcade lands in Birmingham

Birmingham are you ready to race? F1® Arcade’s exhilarating racing experience is coming to Birmingham, putting you in the driver’s seat and immersing you in the ultimate social gaming experience. You might be thinking, I can’t even drive, let alone race…. Get that thought outta your head! F1 Arcade has been designed for the first timer and casual racer to get behind the wheel of an F1 car and speed to glory or rather spectacular tumbles. Join us from the 21st of November in Birmingham to race on one of our 53 full-motion, state-of-the-art racing simulators and enjoy a range of delicious food and drink offerings. This will be our second venue, bringing our popular social gaming bar to Chamberlain Square in Birmingham.

The F1 Arcade Experience

F1® Arcade Birmingham provides a unique experience where you can enjoy adrenaline-fuelled racing in our state-of-the-art simulators. Even if you’ve never fancied yourself as the next Leclerc, Alonso or Albon, we’ve set out to bring you closer to the world of F1; our immersive, experiential hospitality concept allows you to take on world-famous tracks and compete with your friends, family and/or colleagues.

With multiple race modes and skill levels to select, it doesn’t matter if you are an absolute beginner and have your race basically driven for you, or a seasoned sim racer, hell bent on track domination. Our London venue has seen immense popularity and we’re massively looking forward to taking Birmingham by storm.

The Perfect Host City

Situated in the heart of the city in Chamberlain Square, (could we have even picked a better location?!) our Birmingham venue is perfectly located whether you’re looking for your next after-work social, a place to unwind with friends, or the ideal birthday spot – The Octane Bar at F1 Arcade is also great for social gatherings whether you are racing or eating, drinking and meeting. The fact is, you don’t even need a booking to enjoy The Octane Bar at F1 Arcade, drop in any time for drinks with friends.

It was a no brainer to pick Birmingham as the perfect location for the second F1® Arcade, a city with a rich history in motorsport and home to former Formula 1® World Champion, Nigel Mansell. The vibing culture offered by the Paradise location alongside the growing reputation as the perfect entertainment destination provides an exciting hub for our second venue. With cutting-edge full audio and motion gameplay, world-class food and drinks offerings and an electric atmosphere, we offer something for everyone.
