It’s finally the season to watch Christmas movies on repeat and spend the majority of your time in your pyjamas. But in the ever-so rare moments that you do fancy stepping out of your dressing gown and on to the streets of London; you ideally want to be heading somewhere so Christmassy, it puts Whoville to shame. And where is more festive than the iconic McAllister mansion from the (even more iconic) Home Alone movies, hey?
Bringing a sizeable dollop of festive nostalgia to the capital city, the Home Alone Experience will be landing in London for one day only, giving festive film fanatics the chance to step straight into the screen, and explore three sets inspired by Kevin’s hefty house in the States.
The immersive experience will feature recreations of the McAllister’s hallway, living room and bedroom, with each set bringing the holiday magic of Home Alone to life. The halls will be decked with festive wallpaper, retro furnishings, and the unmistakable decor of the legendary abode. With photo opportunities at every turn, visitors will be able to snap some Christmassy content, with the help of the professional photographers that will be on hand in each room and the plethora of themed props.
However, there is unfortunately some not-so-merry news. The first batch of tickets for the event sold out faster than we could say ‘Wet Bandits’, and so there’s currently no tickets available. But, there is a chance that there will be some more tickets released, so keep your eyes peeled and your fingers crossed, ya filthy animals.
The Home Alone Experience is free to attend but you must have a ticket and be over the age of 18. The first set of tickets are currently sold out, but keep a beady eye on the website, as additional tickets may become available.
