Activate, the innovative active gaming venue that blends digital entertainment with physical activity, has opened its first British Columbia location in Coquitlam. Spanning 9,756 square feet, the facility offers ten immersive game rooms, including popular options like Mega Grid, Strike, and Laser.
Players use RFID wristbands to track progress, unlock rewards, and advance through game levels. Options for cooperative or competitive play make the experience accessible for families, friends, and thrill-seekers alike.
Originating in Winnipeg, Activate has grown to nearly 40 locations worldwide, with plans for further expansion across Europe and Scandinavia. The facility brings a fresh approach to gaming by combining physical activity with advanced technology, making it a destination for entertainment and fitness.
We had a great time at Activate trying some of their challenges:
– Mega Grid: A high-energy game that tests agility and speed
– Strike: Hit glowing targets on a wall for precision and coordination
– Laser: Navigate through laser beams in a race against time.
– Press: A game of pattern recognition with multicoloured buttons requiring fast reflexes.
– Scan: A challenge where players collect and scan specific food items into a virtual basket.

Activate Coquitlam is located at 1090 Lougheed Hwy. #108, Coquitlam, BC.
