The virtual sled that turned Port Vell Christmas into a 4-person adventure
Neural Ride X4 · Port Vell Christmas Fair · 40 days of fair
At the Port Vell Christmas Fair in Barcelona, the Neural Ride X4 became "VR Nadal" — a virtual arctic sled for 4 people at once, with synchronized motion and individual 360° vision for each rider. From November 28, 2025 to January 6, 2026, entire families lived the same adventure at the same time, turning the waiting line into part of the Moll de la Fusta spectacle.
VR Nadal — The Neural Ride X4 arctic sled, dressed for Christmas at Port Vell
During the six weeks of the Port Vell Christmas Fair, the Neural Ride X4 occupied its own space under the name "VR Nadal", open from 11:00 to 23:00 alongside the rest of the Moll de la Fusta attractions. The chosen adventure was the Neural Ride arctic sled — the snow and speed experience of the simulator fit naturally with the spirit of the fair, without needing to create new content. Four people at once, each with their own headset and their own perspective of the same descent, experienced "every fascinating journey where Christmas magic comes to life", as described by the fair organization itself on its official website.
The Neural Ride X4 proved to be the perfect simulator for seasonal events: capacity for 4 simultaneous people, existing content that required no additional development, and a visual presence that attracted families from any point of the Moll de la Fusta. With 12 hours of uninterrupted daily operation for 40 days, the simulator ran without a single technical issue.
