Unique domes for immersive shows to open in the UK: how it will work.

Major immersive event in the UK

According to The Sun: Lovers of horror and festive holidays can rejoice: this year a new major immersive event will open in the UK.

Called Apollodomes, this attraction will be the first of its kind, immersing visitors in a world dedicated to Halloween, with a Christmas version planned soon.

Details of the interactive attraction

Designers from Holovis, in collaboration with Landsec, have announced the opening of large immersive projection domes in the UK.

The two domes will be 19 meters high and have an area of 1,300 square meters, also equipped with an immersive theater and panoramic screens that will allow visitors to feel as if they have entered another world.

The opening will take place at Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth, and the first event in the domes will be Halloween-themed.

Horror enthusiasts will be able to visit Pumpkinville, described as a “magical world of magic, tricks, and spooky experiences.”

“Fear and fun for the whole family”

Local press reports that there will also be a ‘SpookAdemy’ where children can learn how to be scary.

Additionally, a ‘The Lantern Lounge’ is planned – a Halloween-themed café and bar.

At night, themed bars featuring classic horror films will operate in the dome, while for adults a terrifying experience called ‘The Summoning’ will be organized, including an intimate fear session.

Pumpkinville will be open from October 24 to November 2.

Christmas version

Although tickets have not yet gone on sale, one can subscribe to a waiting list for details.

After Halloween, the domes will transition to a Christmas theme. Details are still scarce, but sketches featuring huge jaws, Christmas trees, and festive lights are already available.

Organizers also promise areas for entertainment, food, drinks, and shopping under one roof.

Producer Mark Hurri has joined the team to work on the theatrical component, and visitors can expect an unforgettable experience.

He has previously worked on projects like Immersive Peaky Blinders, Doctor Who – Time Fracture and The Great Gatsby – Immersive Experience.

“ApolloDomes offers a unique experience, combining cutting-edge projection technology with world-class theatrical performances.”

This project is sure to become a bright event in the world of attractions.

The new attraction in Portsmouth promises to be a real hit, combining entertainment for the whole family with special atmospheric events. As Halloween approaches, visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy not only terrifying experiences but also a festive atmosphere that will last until mid-autumn, after which a Christmas version will also spark interest. Stay tuned for developments!
