At the beginning of February, Twitter Australia unveiled their spectacular new Sydney HQ to the world. With a select number of key clients invited for the opening, SportSim were invited to add some sporting flavour to the ‘Australian summer’ themed event.

Before the guests arrived, a handful of cheeky ‘Tweeters’ (‘Twitterers’?) couldn’t resist having a kick as part of the ‘testing’ process. Then the doors swung open and it was champagne all round, followed by a whistle stop tour of the new office, to take in the spectacular views of Sydney Harbour.

The SportSim sport simulator was parked next to our friends from ‘247photobooth’ for the evening. Staff and guests would take a picture of themselves, or their friends, using the sport simulator, then Tweet the image with #spreadourwings. They’d then get an instant printout of the image, immortalising their moment of sporting glory, 39 floors up, forever!

As for the sport simulator…it got a solid workout throughout the night as we transitioned through soccer, rugby, Aussie Rules, cricket and baseball. More champagne equals more confidence, and it wasn’t long before previously shrinking violets stepped up for their moment in the sporting spotlight.

As SportSim headed home for the evening, we have a feeling that many in the Twitter community kicked on in to the Sydney night. Lots of fun and we’re very pleased to have helped make the night a great success.

The portability and small footprint of the SportSim sport simulator make it the perfect option for office parties and events. Contact us for more information.SportSim-Rugby-Simulator-Twitter
