Gold Club San Francisco Wants Guys to Stay Home With VR

SAN FRANCISCO—Now that "non-essential" California businesses have been shuttered, and everyone has been advised to avoid public places whenever possible, Gold Club San Francisco, a popular Bay Area adult cabaret, and VRClubz have joined forces to help promote the national health and safety self-isolation policy.

With nightlife at a standstill and so many establishments being forced to shut down around the country, a gentlemen's club would seem to be an unlikely business to turn to for support in "flatten the curve" efforts—but both The Gold Club San Francisco and VRClubz.com are lending their hands in helping encourage people who want to go out and party to stay home!

The Gold Club San Francisco, like many bars and clubs around the country, has been forced to shut its doors—but the club's virtual business model has doubled sales overnight by building a virtual reality doppelganger of the club that customers around the world can enjoy. Right now, the virtual club is busier than it has ever been, but instead of capitalizing on that traffic and increase in revenue, the Gold Club SF and VRClubz.com have decided to keep their virtual doors open for free, waiving all entrance fees—not to mention donating $1,000,000 in digital currencies that can be spent at the club!

"The Gold Club SF VR is a truly unique gaming experience," said VRClubz.com Creative Director Daniel DiLallo. "By combining film with game technology, we have created a powerful new form of entertainment that takes advantage of both worlds."

Gold Club SF VR is an immersive interactive experience that simulates the real thing. The "game" features real dancers from the Gold Club SF, as well as several famed adult film stars such as Christy Mack, Alexis Monroe, and Kendra Lust. Players can take a front-row seat to stage dances or enjoy champagne room private shows which offer single, double, or triple girl action. Tipping the stage girls causes them to remove articles of clothing, while the club's resident DJ plays tracks by up-and-coming music artists.

Though the entertainment can be enjoyed either in VR or on a PC, Gold Club San Francisco is also giving away VR headsets (customers just pay shipping and handling). To get in on the action, download the app here or check out the library of Virtual Reality Dream Dances here.

"Gold Club San Francisco is a world-renowned gentlemen's club that has been a top destination in San Francisco for decades," said Craig Bordeau, General Manager of Gold Club San Francisco. "With virtual reality, we recognized a golden opportunity to deliver our highly-rated entertainment experience to the comfort of your living room."

VRClubz.com is comprised of award-winning game designers who have worked on games such as Transformers, Guitar Hero, and Spiderman. The creative director, Daniel DiLallo, is a former Activision game developer who has established himself as an industry pioneer in virtual reality.  DiLallo is an authority in the VR space, having directed a wide range of projects with top entertainment brands and various business ventures.
