What makes this clink a little more bearable? Well, successfully smuggle in liquor past the Warden and get it to the hands of Alcotraz’s canteen-working inmates who will serve you up delicious, bespoke cocktails. What are you waiting for? Line up below the metal detector and be ready to enter Cell Block Two-One-Two!
What to expect
Alcotraz London promises to be one of the most exciting and unique nights out in the capital.
Once you’ve been convicted, inmates are led into a world like no other. Experience mischief and notoriety when you come face to face with an infamous bootlegging gang. Your task is simple: smuggle your liquor of choice past the Warden, and the “serving” mixologists will use it to create delicious bespoke cocktails.
You are encouraged to be as creative as you can with your attempts to smuggle your liquor into Alcotraz London. Remember, the Guards are crooked and on your side – and have their ways of hiding contraband. But just make sure the Warden doesn’t catch you…

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 gang delicious cocktails are included in the ticket price, so all you need to bring is the liquor of your choice.
Our London Cell Block is fully wheelchair accessible. If you book and are attending with a wheelchair user, please get in touch with your booking number!
