The wait is finally over! Our Virtual Hideout Manchester team has a brand new TikTok account, and we’ve got some great content on the horizon. Be on the lookout for hilarious videos, helpful VR tips, and some unmissable giveaways!

You might be wondering what all the fuss is about - TikTok is just one of many social media platforms, afterall - but there are endless reasons that we decided to jump on the TikTok bandwagon. The app’s popularity is undeniable, spread over 150 different countries with over a billion users in total (as of 2023), with around 23 million in the users per month in the UK according to Smart Home Fox.

It’s clear that TikTok has a vast reach when it comes to audiences, but the app’s success isn’t just about numbers: quality is just as important as quantity, and TikTok has some of the most incredible content out there. Trends come and go every day on the platform, with users expressing their creativity through editing, dance, makeup, songwriting, comedy - and our personal favourite, gaming! TikTok is the perfect place to experiment with content and find audiences with similar interests and humour.

As a VR gaming arcade with a fantastic team of creatives, our TikTok mission is to show off the wonders of Virtual Reality to a wide range of audiences, from our local area of Manchester to the rest of the world. Want to check out some amazing new VR games? Our TikTok will feature some incredible gameplay from our list of 100+ games! Want inspiration for activities to do on your big trip to Manchester? Our TikTok will point you in the direction of the beautiful Northern Quarter for some spectacular VR fun! Or do you just want to kick back, relax, and enjoy some hilarious content? Our team has an excellent sense of humour!
