Brighton
Duration: 1 hr 45 min time slot in the venue
Overview
It's time for a cel(l)ebration
If you want to do one truly unique activity on your last night of freedom, this is it. Don’t just settle for a night on the drink, immerse yourselves in a comedic theatrical drinking experience you’ll never forget.
Inspired by Hollywood blockbusters and TV shows based on the iconic San Francisco big house, this quirky venue will transport you to the depths of inner Alcatraz. This famous, off-shore Federal Penitentiary started its life in 1934, and saw hundreds of America’s most famous bad guys through its doors – including Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly and even Robert Franklin Stroud aka ‘The Bird Man of Alcatraz’.
You’ll join these infamous rogues, have your orange prisoner jumpsuits on and be thrown into real metallic cells.... but what the warden doesn’t know is that you’ve smuggled your own liquor in past him (yes, this is BYOB), and you’re about to get on it. Your smuggled spirits will be added to mixers, juices, syrups and garnishes that some of the old time jail birds have managed to get under the wardens' radars - they'll then be made into bespoke cocktails before your very eyes.
