This exciting new work encourages kids to explore the digital world with curiosity, caution, and confidence. As the adventure unfolds, they’ll pick up essential online skills that will last a lifetime, while adults will enjoy nostalgic nods to classics like Atari, Nintendo 64, PlayStation, Wii, Game Boy, and even Carmen Sandiego.

By bus
A bus drop-off point is located adjacent to the Centre, accessible from Middle Street. Due to the large number of buses using this area, it is designated for drop-offs only. Buses can park on the grassed areas behind RPAC (weather permitting), or return to the drop-off area at an agreed collection time.
By car
Parking is available in front of the Concert Hall and in the patrons' car park at the rear. Please note: on-street parking at the front of the Concert Hall is reverse (angle rear in) only.
Additional public car parks are available between Doig and Waterloo Streets, around 100 metres easy walk from RPAC.
By train
RPAC is about a 200-metre walk from Cleveland Railway Station. For the safety of all students and visitors, please use the pedestrian crossing on Shore Street West, in front of the train station, and also on Waterloo Street.
Food and drink
Students are encouraged to enjoy a snack or lunch before or after a performance. The RPAC Piazza and a large grassed area near the Events Hall are available for use.
Water is allowed in the Concert Hall and Auditorium during performances, but no other food or beverages are permitted inside.
Bags
Designated areas for school bags will be advised. Bags are not permitted inside the Concert Hall and Studio. The Concert Hall can get quite cool, so we recommend students take a jumper/jacket into the theatre.
