Wifi Wars - Evening Entertainment!
From DJ's to quizzes - we always like to have something fun for the evening on the main stage. This year, we couldn't get any more interactive or fun - introducing WIFI WARS!
Starting around 7.30pm on the main stage (time to be confirmed) Steve McNeil will be hosting Wifi Wars, the interactive comedy game show.
What is WiFi Wars?
From classic TV game shows to zen-like word puzzles, from retro video games to modern first person shooters, WiFi Wars has something for everyone in its truly original whistlestop tour of all the ways you can have fun, in public.
The audience competes, both as teams and as individuals, on games, quizzes and more that are magically beamed into their smartphones and tablets using WiFi Wars’ Guinness World Record-Breaking tech, developed in residency at London’s prestigious Royal Institution.
Tickets to use the software and play are £20.00 per person - however if you buy your ticket in advance, Timeless gaming convention will subsidise the ticket so it only costs £10.00 to play (you must also have a ticket to the gaming convention to get entry, wifi wars ticket is only to access the app to play along). Of course, if you just want to sit and watch, all you need is your standard timeless ticket.
Your Host - Steve McNeil
Hosted by comedian Steve McNeil (team captain on the hit TV show "Dara O’Briain’s Go 8 Bit") and Rob Sedgebeer (a Chortle “Legend of Lockdown” award winner), WiFi Wars is the Award-Winning must-see show that’s like nothing you’ve seen before. As teams and players thrive and fail, each show’s unique narrative emerges hilariously in real time, with freshly-minted heroes becoming local legends in every place they visit.
