I was somewhere between The Venetian and The Palazzo, two combined properties that transition into one another without warning. People shop, dine, and ride gondolas al fresco underneath the hotel’s blue skies– a version of their own hyper-reality. And suddenly there it was: The Void at the Grand Canal Shoppes and the sudden realization as to why placing it inside and in between these two Sands properties made sense.
Are you a Star Wars fan? Do you like video games? Doesn’t matter. You don’t have to be. It’s state-of-the-art technology and a worthy of any luxury traveler to experience. It’s a stunning venue, really, and it’s addicting. You get this sensation that you’ve stepped into the 21st-century when walking inside. There’s a login process on iPads with digital forms to fill out. Though a simple demonstration, it sets the tone. First impressions count.
I remember saying something like, “okay this is siiick, but I’m getting nervous.” This is coming from the girl who eats and breathes horror movies. Nevermind the nerves kicking-in on cue thanks to the thundering and incredible sound system vibrating the floor and past my Nike‘s, or the badass, sturdy Call of Duty gear the group ahead is trying on for the mission to confront Darth Vader.
The Void is truly an unimaginable exhilarating adventure. You can’t possibly wimp out and stay behind. Grow some ovaries, or balls if you’re a guy. The Void is the first step towards new traditional entertainment in a contemporary world, and it’s right on cue for the turn of the century. It will become as normal as going to a movie theater.
The only thing to watch out for are the hilarious lessons you’ll learn from your group of four after experiencing The Void. You’ll learn whether you’re: the leader, the scaredy cat, the brains, or the soldier. You’ll also learn the same about each other, which truly makes for a fantastic after-show conversation over cocktails.
It has recently added a new attraction to their hyper-reality headlining roster– Nicodemus: Demon of Evanishment. The storyline goes like this: it takes place at the Chicago World’s Fair on the south side of Chicago when a demonstration goes wrong and a creature now lurks.
The Void is the first hyper-reality company to break into mainstream entertainment around the world with their Star Wars experience. It tests your senses and survival skills, if you will. It’s an unbelievably impressive hyper-reality powered system. You’ll never experience anything like The Void.
This hyper-reality company isn’t the only 21st-century luxury travel attraction popping up as of late. The underwater flight-craft is offered at their Four Season resort, and you can fly over coral and next to marine life.
