Experience an adventure like no other

Join Alice on her amazing journey through Wonderland and experience an adventure like no other.

Come along and join the fun in this enchanting world of song, dance and interactive games that will have the whole family dizzy and giddy with nonsense.

Meet your favourite assortment of curious characters; the skittish, constantly late White Rabbit, the Dodo and other birds who love a sing-along, the Duchess and her crazy cook, the Cheshire Cat who will leave you with a grin and Humpty Dumpty on his way to meet Tweedledum and Tweedledee. You can’t miss the silliness as the Mad Hatter arrives with the March Hare and Dormouse to have a grand old time with Alice at the tea party.
