What to Expect

It’s time to get festive behind bars. Don your orange jumpsuit and get ready for a Christmas party like no other. However you choose to celebrate, you’ll be in for an evening of unrivalled festive joy in a setting that’s unlike any other.

For a Christmas party venue in Brighton with a twist, look no further than Alcotraz. If you do enjoy a tipple, our “serving” mixologists can use the liquor you smuggle inside to craft up to four personalised and bespoke cocktails. But if drinking isn’t your thing, there’s still plenty on hand to entertain.

First, our mixologists will craft four delicious mocktails for you at no extra charge, and you’ll find there’s still a great deal to get involved with besides sitting in your cell. Speaking of, when you sit in your highly realistic prison cell, everyone you encounter is a highly trained actor, and they’re there to put you centre stage of your own story. You can choose to interact with the storyline as much or as little as you wish; you could play games with the guards, or be part of a plot to take down the Warden.

Whether you’re a drinker or not, prefer to stay on the sidelines or be the centre of attention, you’ll be in for a festive celebration we guarantee you won’t forget.

FAQs

For processing and conviction, we recommend that you wear light clothing as you will be required to wear a standard-issue Alcotraz orange jumpsuit (provided) for the duration of your stay.

Your experience will last 1 hour 45 minutes, and inmates will be provided with their own orange jumpsuit for the duration of their time behind bars.

Our standard-issue Alcotraz jumpsuits cater to all inmates, with sizes ranging from XS to 4XL. Please note that you are free to wear your jumpsuit as you wish to make it more comfortable, such as tying the arms around your waist.

The inmates you come across behind bars are highly skilled mixologists, and they work best with smuggled spirits. But, if you prefer wine or beer, this can also be served to you… If you can get it past the Warden.

Alcotraz operates a closed bottle policy, meaning we will not accept any bottles previously opened. Please only bring new, unopened and sealed bottles.

Inmates get approximately 4 personalised cocktails delivered by our expert mixologists, using the liquor you smuggle in with you. All liqueurs, bitters, syrups and other ingredients that go into making your cocktails are included in the ticket price, so all you need to bring is the liquor of your choice.

Alcotraz is an immersive experience where guests get absorbed into a storyline that is brought to life around them through characters including the Warden, the Guards and inmate Cassidy - all played by actors.

Those who really want to get involved will soon be trying out their American accent and telling the Warden what they are in for!

Those who would prefer to sit back and enjoy are welcome to do that too, whilst enjoying personalised cocktails in this unique and fun world.

Alcotraz may be an immersive experience, but is not scary. We have actors working inside the prison who help bring to life a fun, lighthearted experience for guests. However, if at any time guests do not act respectful and polite towards actors and the venue then they run the risk of their experience being cut short.

If drinking isn't your thing, don't worry. The Alcotraz experience is exactly the same for non-drinkers as a huge part of your time behind bars is the immersive storyline that unfolds around you where you can interact with the storylines and the actors. For those not drinking liquor, there is no need to smuggle anything in and instead, you will receive x 4 expertly crafted mocktails included within the ticket price!
