Citydash

Overview

The street game experts at Pop-Up Playground are back with their latest citywide adventure. Presented in conjunction with UK-based game designers Fire Hazard, Citydash is a game of mental and physical agility played right here on the streets of Melbourne.

The fun begins in the grassy amphitheatre in Federation Square, and runs for roughly an hour. Teams will chase moving targets and decipher clues in real time, all while avoiding capture by the patrolling guards. Basically, it's like orienteering for grown-ups, mashed up with a big game of hide and seek. The game was a highlight of Pop-Up Playground's most recent Fresh Air Festival back in March, and returns with all new challenges and locations.

Pop-Up Playground will run three sessions of Citydash across Saturday May 30 and Sunday May 31. Tickets are $15 for earlybirds, with sales closing 24 hours before the event. For more information, visit www.citydash.net/melbourne.
