At Alcotraz Brighton there are 2 ticket types to choose between. Both offer the immersive theatrical experience and four bespoke cocktails. The only difference is whether you sit in a cell or on the canteen tables in the middle of the Cell Block.
Prison Cell Seating
Perfect for couples and groups, each ticket is seating within one of the “Prison Cells”.
What this includes: Imprisonment inside Alcotraz with 4 personalised cocktails made by our inmate mixologists.
Please bring your own bottle of liquor to smuggle past the Warden with the help of the Guards of Alcotraz.
Prison Canteen Seating
Only for groups of 2 and 4, each ticket is seating at one of the “Prison Canteen Tables”.
What this includes: Imprisonment inside Alcotraz with 4 personalised cocktails made by our inmate mixologists.
Please bring your own bottle of liquor to smuggle past the Warden with the help of the Guards of Alcotraz.
What do I wear to Alcotraz?
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.
How long will I spend at Alcotraz Brighton?
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. If you want to spend more time behind bars, with time to mingle and eat pizza, you may want to consider our private hire package, exclusively for large groups of 30+.
What size jumpsuits do you provide?
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.
What alcohol can I bring with me?
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.
Can I bring open bottles of alcohol?
Alcotraz operates a closed bottle policy, meaning we will not accept any bottles previously opened. Please only bring new, unopened and sealed bottles.
How many drinks are included?
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.
Do I need to get involved if I don't want to?
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.
Is it scary?
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.
What if I/someone in my group doesn’t drink alcohol?
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!
Is Alcotraz Brighton wheelchair-accessible?
Unfortunately, our Brighton Cell Block is not currently accessible for wheelchair users.
