Participants are encouraged to smuggle their own spirits into the “prison,” which are then turned into custom cocktails by the expert mixologist “guards.” The experience is unique, creative, and offers a refreshing departure from conventional nights out.
The immersive setting provides a thrilling and memorable way to ring in the new year. It’s perfect for groups looking for something unconventional with expertly crafted drinks.
