Birmingham’s new F1 Arcade opened its doors in November. It's only the second F1 Arcade venue in the country. We paid a visit to the arcade ahead of its opening to enjoy the arcade. The bespoke racing simulators are located all around the 11,000 sq. ft venue. There's a main cocktail bar to the left side of the arcade, with the F1 racing chairs dotted all along the sides of the venue. The simulators are designed especially for the venue, featuring motion and audio-visual effects to immerse guests in the race. The idea takes inspiration from the world of Formula 1. It currently has a 4.9 rating from 90 reviews.
