This Immersive Film Experience Will Recreate the 'Alice in Wonderland' Mad Hatter's Tea Party
Go down the rabbit hole with wild costumes and bottomless 'potions'.
After its Australian debut saw 1000 Sydneysiders board a cruise ship for last year's immersive Titanic Experience, Beyond Cinema has decided to go all in with their fantastical cinematic extravaganzas — having already announced three new events for 2018.
Just earlier this month, the immersive cinema company announced it'll transform a Melbourne CBD building into a jail for The Shawshank Redemption experience on June 30, and takeover Sydney's sandstone castle at Curzon Hall, Mansfield for The Great Gatsby version on August 19. Tickets for both events are currently on sale, with tickets including the film screening and additional options ranging from canapés or 'prison food' to bottomless drinks and a full sit-down dinner.
Now, the cinematic journey will take a leap down the rabbit hole for a Sydney Mad Hatter's Tea Party. Transcending the boundary between film and imagination, the three-hour Alice in Wonderland-themed immersive experience will of course centre around English afternoon tea, which, like the film, will go insanely awry with bottomless 'potions' and punches.
As with other events, fancy dress is required, which in this case will be your most colourful and bizarre outfit. Each attendee will also be assigned a character to gear their dress-up toward. It is unclear what film will be screened with this one, though, of course, there's bound to be some form of wild cinematic entertainment for guests. The location will remain secret for now and the date has not yet been announced, but you can sign up for pre-release tickets and get the latest updates here. Just don't be late.
The Mad Hatter's Tea Party will happen in Sydney sometime in 2018. For updates on tickets, register here.
