Outdoor AR Graffiti Gaming Tour in Midtown Manhattan
About
GLO Graffiti is a 60-minute outdoor augmented reality gaming tour that transforms the real streets of Midtown Manhattan into an interactive playground. Led by a licensed NYC tour guide, guests explore 6½ Avenue while creating digital graffiti, playing multiplayer games, completing challenges, battling flying robots, and discovering the story of New York graffiti.
GLO combines the creativity of an art class, the excitement of a multiplayer video game, and the discovery of a guided NYC experience. Instead of simply seeing Midtown, you play through it. The experience works for solo explorers, friends, couples, families, visitors, and New Yorkers seeking something genuinely unexpected together.
- Up to 8 travelers in the group
What to expect
- 16 1/2 AvenueYour experience begins at 135 West 55th Street, where a licensed NYC tour guide will set you up with an augmented reality headset. Unlike virtual reality, augmented reality keeps the city in view while adding digital art, characters, games, and surprises to the world around you. Then your group heads outside for five blocks of collaborative gameplay along 6½ Avenue. Spray digital walls, design your tag, throw digital paintballs, team up for multiplayer mini-games, complete challenges, battle flying robots, and explore hidden environments layered onto public spaces. Along the way, your guide shares the story of New York graffiti, from underground roots to galleries and popular culture. Passes by without stopping
