Rob Hubbard Tribute Electric Cabinet

You'll need to know where you're looking for this one - it's not the kind of place that announces itself loudly. The Rob Hubbard Tribute Electric Cabinet is housed in Beverley, a proper gem of a market town in East Yorkshire, and it's a shrine to one of gaming's most influential composers. If you grew up in the 1980s hammering away at a Commodore 64, those chip-tune melodies will hit you hard.

The cabinet itself is a working installation that lets you experience Hubbard's legendary video game soundtracks the way they were meant to be heard - through actual arcade hardware rather than an emulator on your laptop. We're talking the composer behind International Karate, Commando, and that ubiquitous Commodore 64 loader tune that became lodged in an entire generation's brain. It's interactive, so you're not just gawping at a museum piece.

This is squarely for retro gaming enthusiasts and anyone who understands why those synthetic bleeps and bloops matter. Casual visitors might find fifteen minutes enough; proper devotees could spend an hour. Given that Beverley itself rewards wandering - the minster is genuinely spectacular, the town centre has proper character - you won't feel short-changed if the cabinet turns out to be a quick stop.

Stay at Manor Farm Camping or Butt Farm if you're basing yourself here. Both are close enough that a morning exploring Beverley's attractions, including this electric cabinet, works well before heading out to explore the wider Yorkshire coastline and countryside.
