Hello gamers, virtual reality enthusiasts, friends, family and pets with opposable thumbs. The Ctrl V team is on a mission to save kids through virtual reality gaming, and we need your help!

24 HOURS OF VIRTUAL REALITY

From November 3rd (Sat. 10AM-Midnight and Sun. 10AM-8PM), Ctrl V St Catharines will be hosting a 24-Hour Virtual Reality Charity Event. Multiple Ctrl V locations all across North America will be participating in the same event this year and we have a schedule full of a ton of different fun events going on throughout the event! We hope to raise over $20,000 to contribute to Extra Life from all Ctrl V locations nationally.

Our facility, located in St. Catharines, Ontario, is equipped with 14 premium VR stations using the HTC Vive. The Ctrl V St Catharines team will be raising funds in support of our local Children's Miracle Network hospital, McMaster Children's Hospital, and we hope to raise over $1,333.
