The Main Event

Step inside history's most daring conspiracy.

This immersive, live action Gunpowder Plot experience has it all - conspiracy theories, live theatre and the latest digital technology transporting you into the heart of the story with you as the central character.

Find yourself transported back more than 400 years into the world of the infamous Gunpowder Plot with this fully immersive experience.

Trust no one as you delve undercover to unveil the enigmatic individuals behind history's most notorious anti-government rebellion. Featuring live actors and digital characters, with Tom Felton (known as Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter) portraying Guy Fawkes, you don't just observe history—you participate in it.

The danger and intrigue feels real as you attempt to escape the Tower of London, discover a secret safe house and make the daring journey along the Thames towards the Houses of Parliament in order to foil the plotters.

This unforgettable immersive experience themed around gunpowder, treason and plot lasts around an hour and 40 minutes, with a 20-minute break during which you'll be able to enjoy refreshments in the specially recreated Duck and Drake, accessible only to plotters.

Who Can Go

  • This experience is suitable for children 10+ and adult supervision is required. Children under 16 years old need parental or guardian consent through the waiver before admission, and they must be accompanied by an adult aged 18yrs or over at all times. If a child chooses to leave the experience for any reason, they must be accompanied by an adult.
  • Please note that some scenes are very dark with loud noises, which some children may not enjoy. It’s a fun experience and most people don’t find it too scary. There are some surprises and moments of suspense but it is not frightening.
  • This experience includes strobe lighting, confined spaces, sudden loud noises and temperature changes. These effects are designed to immerse guests in the experience and be impactful.
  • For your own safety, the experience may not be suitable for: Those who suffer from high blood pressure, heart conditions, asthma, back or neck conditions, epilepsy, or any type of medical condition affecting the senses of smell, vision, or hearing, those of a nervous disposition, the elderly, those with disabilities, blind or visually impaired, those with sensitivities to scent, loud noises, or flashing lights, pregnant women, those suffering from breathing or respiratory problems, such as allergies or scent sensitivities, those who are prone to motion sickness, guests under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • The experience is not wheelchair accessible.
  • You’re advised to wear comfortable footwear and clothes you can move in as you’ll need to bend down while walking and crawling, squeeze through narrow tunnels and to get through tight spaces. However, if you feel unable to participate there are other routes, simply speak to a member of staff on arrival.
  • You can wear your hearing aids inside the experience. Please let the team know if you require additional support when using the VR headsets.

  • Impressive, immersive and entertaining

    We were already fans of the War of the Worlds experience, so we had high expectations when going to this... but it did not disappoint at all.

    Here's my 12 year-old's review: "it was exciting, amazing and awesome - thank you."

    The actors were excellent, weaving an interesting tale which we got to take part in. The sets and special-effects were high-quality, and the location and building really added to the day.

  • Amazing!

    Got this as a present for my partners birthday. Didn't really know what to expect but it looked fun so thought i'd give it a go. It was amazing! Wearing the VR headset and the live actors make you feel part of the action and like you've stepped back in time. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different as a gift.
