An immersive ‘escape room style’ outdoor ‘Alice in Wonderland’ experience is hitting Geelong streets this year

Journey down the rabbit hole this August with this all-outdoors experience.

If you’ve been aching to go on a topsy-turvy journey into the magical realm of Wonderland, we’ve found just the thing!

A new immersive outdoor escape-room style experience based on the truly iconic Lewis Carroll children’s novel is set to take over Geelong’s streets this August, transforming our regional city into a giant fairy tale.

Hosted by the creative beings at CluedUpp Games, the giant game is running for one day only, on Saturday, August 13, where attendees can experience the beloved tale in a whole new and truly immersive way.

In teams of up to six players, players have to find a way to save Alice, who is trapped in Wonderland and time is running out to save her. Players will ultimately follow Alice down the rabbit role which is filled with challenges, clues and conspiracies that you’ll need to solve in order to win the game and to “uncover a dark conspiracy at the heart of Wonderland”.

The experience is taking place across a number of locations across the world – 1500 cities to be exact – with Geelong being just one lucky destination to score this event.

Your secret and central starting location will be revealed two weeks prior to the event and participants can start anytime between 9am and 2pm with the experience lasting between two and three hours on average.

Entirely self-guided, it’s a puzzle-solving experience which unfolds unfolds exclusively via the CluedUpp app. You have to, as a team, scramble across town on foot solving clues and completing challenges against the clock.

You only need to book one ticket per team. Each ticket admits up to six adults and kiddies play free!

Essentially it’s like an outdoor escape room mixed with a little bit of role-playing with you and your friends to explore a wonderland for the day. It is optional to dress up and celebrate the madness of Wonderland but absolutely encouraged.

As a bonus, you and your friends can even score prizes for categories like fastest team, best Alice in Wonderland-inspired costume, best team picture, best team name, and best dog photo. It’s time to get creative!

Tickets are available online for $105 and are already selling quickly. Only one ticket is required per team, so call up your friends, round up the pooches and take a trip through the looking glass to save Alice. Head here for more info.
