The hugely anticipated Wake The Tiger is coming to Bristol on Saturday 30 July.

 

Prepare to journey to a parallel world as tickets for a groundbreaking new experience go on sale today (Tuesday 5 July) at 12:00.

 

Wake The Tiger will blur the lines between experiential art gallery, interactive theme park and intricate film set – creating a unique and immersive adventure appropriate for visitors of all ages.

 

Tickets for the upcoming experience can be found on the Wake The Tiger website.

 

 

Brought to Bristol by the artistic team behind the pioneering music/performance art festival Boomtown, attendees will be confronted with a multi-layered labyrinth of different creative environments and fantastical wonders.

 

On arrival to Wake The Tiger, visitors will step into the parallel world of ‘Meridia’ where they will enter an old factory, left abandoned by a mysterious community of adventurers carrying out unfathomable experiments.

This supernatural, sci-fi theme is created with the aim of inspiring visitors to reconnect with their environment and community. 

 

The experience will feature 27 individual spaces, each exploring themes of connection, innovation, inspiration and discovery.

 

These spaces include the underground networks of the Mycelium Room at the factory’s core, the intergalactic explorations near the journey’s end and many more intriguing sights.

Lak Mitchell (Creative Director of the project) has said of the project: 

 

“You have to see it to believe it. Wake The Tiger is an abandoned time capsule of fantastical experiences just waiting to be discovered.

 

“It will invite you to explore connections with the environment around you as well as challenge you to transform the world we all live in. 

 

“This is a vision that plays into and expands on everything we have spent our lives building, taking raw underground art and fusing it with the latest technology.

 

“We can’t wait for guests to explore what we have created in the heart of Bristol.”

On Saturday 30 July, guests will finally have the opportunity to travel through the illuminated singing ice, strange underwater worlds, futuristic mechanical chambers and elder forests as they explore this strange world.

 

Tickets are on sale now from £16.50 on the Wake The Tiger website, where more information about the upcoming Amazement Park can also be found.
