How to get to ANIMUS Arena in Timișoara

Step 1: the address you enter in your navigation app

In your navigation app, enter Calea Torontalului 69, VOX Technology Park, 300668 Timișoara. The name of the park matters: it is a well-known landmark and much easier to recognise visually than the street number, which on such a long road can be ambiguous as you approach.

The site has two ready-made links on the Contact page: a Google Maps one, which opens a search for the venue, and a Waze one, which starts straight in navigation mode. Both lead to the same destination. The practical advice is to open the link on your phone before you set off, not while driving, and to send the same link to the other members of the group.

Calea Torontalului is a main road in the north of Timișoara, with traffic that varies with the time of day. For sessions booked at weekday peak times, allowing a few extra minutes is sensible, because the booked time is when the session actually starts, not the latest time arrivals are accepted.

If you're coming from outside Timișoara, the destination doesn't change: same address, same park, same building. There is no second entrance to the arena, and no sessions are held at the company's registered office, which is a purely administrative address.

Step 2: from inside the park to Building B

VOX Technology Park is a complex of several buildings identified by letters. ANIMUS Arena is in Building B. This is the step where time is most often lost, because in an office park the buildings look alike, and a visitor who walks into the first building they see then has to cross the park.

Checking properly takes a few seconds: look for the building letter before going in. Once you're in Building B, the rest of the route is straightforward and has no alternatives. You don't need to look for a separate arena reception on the ground floor and you don't need an intermediate appointment at the park entrance.

For groups, the simplest solution is a meeting point agreed in advance at the entrance to Building B, about 15 minutes before the booked time. That way the group goes up together, the briefing is given once for everyone and the session starts on time for every participant.

Step 3: the 1st floor and the ANIMUS signs

From Building B, go up to the 1st floor by lift or by the stairs. As you leave the lift, ANIMUS Arena is signposted, so the last part of the route needs no further directions. This is where the journey ends and the welcome begins.

If you arrive earlier than the recommended 10 minutes, that's no problem: you wait in the reception area. If you arrive exactly at the booked time, the session starts straight away, but the briefing is compressed, which reduces the time for questions before the first game. That's why the 10-minute recommendation is stated explicitly in every booking confirmation.

• Enter VOX Technology Park and head to Building B.
• Go up to the 1st floor — ANIMUS Arena is signposted as you leave the lift.
• We expect you 10 minutes before your booked time for the briefing.

Step 4: what happens on arrival

On arrival, the group is identified by the name on the booking. You don't need an account on the site and you don't need a printed document: the booking is made by name, date, time and number of players, and these four details are enough for identification.

Next comes the briefing before playing. It is short and covers exactly what you need to play: how the LED surface works, what the active zones mean, how scoring works, what to do when a round ends and which rules of behaviour apply in the arena. You don't need previous video game experience and you don't wear special equipment.

After the briefing the session itself begins: 40 minutes in the arena, during which the instructor chooses from the active games in the current act, based on the age, size and pace of the group. For standard sessions and packages without their own terms, payment is made on site, by card or in cash, with no deposit. Private Party has its own terms, published on the Pricing page.

The clothing advice is simple: comfortable sports shoes and loose clothes. No special equipment is needed, because the experiences are played on the LED surface, by moving, jumping and light kicks, not by using personal accessories.

Parking: what is confirmed and what isn't

Parking rules for arena visitors have not been officially published yet. As a result, this site makes no statement about the number of spaces, whether it's free or any possible charges. We chose this wording because inaccurate logistical information causes more problems than none at all, especially for groups arriving in several cars.

Until it is officially published, the safest approach is to ask before your session, at contact@animusarena.ro or on WhatsApp at 0774 205 846. The answer will reflect the situation on the day of your booking. Once the rules become official, they will be published on this site and on the Contact page.

If you're running late or can't make it

If you're running late, let us know as soon as possible at 0774 205 846, by phone or on WhatsApp. The session starts at the time booked for your group, and lost time can't be made up by extending it, because the next slot is already scheduled for another group. An early heads-up does, however, let us adapt the briefing and the order of games for the rest of the session.

For standard sessions, cancellation and rescheduling are free if you let us know at least 24 hours in advance, at contact@animusarena.ro. For Private Party cancellation or rescheduling, contact the team.

For large groups, a change in the number of participants communicated in good time is useful: the packages have different capacities, and a significant change may mean a more suitable package. Full package details are on the Pricing page.
