Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of the Electric Carnival. For those that don’t know, Electric Carnival is an inner city musical playground incorporating all of the cities prime nightspots and the interlinking streets; all of which is accessible with one ticket.
Warehouses, marquees, music venue's, railway arches, nightclubs, art galleries, man made lake installations and loads of other unique spaces are completely transformed with state of the art sound and visual production. Expect madcap entertainment and full on Carnival vibes as 9,000 people take to the streets!

▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
DIGITAL FUNFAIR
A unique sideshow self contained under a marquee. Combining digital technology, dance music, film and stuff lying around in the street, the Digital Funfair creates an experience which people will remember for a long time. The Digital Funfair is a collection of unique interactive attractions that entertain, empower, inform and most of all make people laugh.
Attractions include:
BEAT JIGSAW
The Beat Jigsaw is a jigsaw puzzle which allows you to create music and VJ style graphics. It is a musical instrument, an immersive experience and most importantly, a lot of fun to play with!
PAC BIKE
Jump on our PacBike and cycle through a three dimensional park, generated in real time and filled with attractions and sounds.
Use the Bike to play series of classic arcade games such as Pacman and Space Invaders that have been adjusted to be controlled by the PacBike… A challenging and hilarious spectacle!
VIDEO KARAOKE
Ever dreamed of appearing on the silver screen? Performing along side Marilyn Monroe or battling Darth Veda in a light sabre battle. The Video Karaoke system gives you the chance to take centre stage and step into the limelight…This could be the future of Reality Television!
PEEP SHOW – The 21st century mutoscope!
This Peep Show is an updated form of the mutoscope, the early motion picture device which has thrilled viewers since its invention in 1894. Now the ancient idea has been catapulted into the 21st century!
We dare you to put your face in the hole, turn the handle and see what happens!
VIRTUAL COCONUT SHY
Three televisions mounted on poles show images of a variety of well known faces – you have to throw balls at them to give them what you know they deserve. If you are on target the screen appears to smash and you hear the satisfying sound of breaking glass. The more you hit the longer you play and the better you feel!
