World-first gameshow attraction is opening in the UK
IF you’ve ever wanted to take part in a gameshow without being on TV – this is your chance.
The world’s first live interactive gameshow experience is coming to London and will launch in spring 2026.
Called Gameshow LIVE! the experience is a world first and has been inspired by classic TV nostalgia – you’ll feel like you’re in the midst of an old-school gameshow.
When contestants arrive they’ll be immersed in the glitz and glamour of Saturday night television.
There will be a huge stage, enormous lights and even a giant Gameshow wheel full of prizes to be won.
It’s a big experience with room for 200 players.
However, teams will be split across 40 state-of-the-art interactive booths with room for four to six players in each.
Once you’re sat at a booth there will be the chance to play plenty of games within various rounds, so you’re bound to find one to gain points.
Think gameshow-style challenges from trivia and music rounds to buzzer battles.
Teams will battle it out to reach the top of the leaderboard and there are even bonus rounds where players will be invited to get onto the stage by their host.
Over the course of 90-minutes, players will compete for prizes like fondue sets, giant teddy bears, smart TVs, robot vacuums, air fryers – and even a speedboat.
Plus, there’s an outrageous star prize that’s kept strictly under wraps.
You can even get cocktails and snacks delivered to your booth at the press of a button.
The experience has been created by the team behind Swingers Crazy Golf and Outernet – an immersive entertainment district.
Josh Ford, Gameshow LIVE! founder, said: “Gameshow LIVE! takes the magic of the TV gameshows we grew up with and transforms it into a high-tech, high-energy night out.
“The competitive socialising sector has evolved rapidly, and now is the perfect time to introduce something genuinely new.
“I’m confident our combination of nostalgia, spectacle and pure competitive joy will delight guests, from those looking for an unforgettable night out to those secretly turning up purely for the chance to win a speedboat.”
Gameshow LIVE! will open Spring 2026 in Central London. For more information and to sign up for pre-sale access, visit gameshow-live.com.
Sun Travel headed to the Traitors Live to test out the latest experience…
I played the first-ever Traitors live experience – it was a heart-pounding world of lies and best friend-betrayal…
I’VE been in high-stakes situations before – the kind that quicken your pulse and leave your hands trembling.
But nothing could ever have prepared me for the chilling dread and simultaneous thrill of stepping into London’s very own ‘Scottish castle‘ for the new The Traitors live experience
Little did I know, this was just the start of what was going to be two hours of lies, deception and brilliant gameplay.
Alongside 10 other players, I made my way into the belly of the building. The basement’s chill sent a shiver down my spine – very apt for the live experience of the iconic TV show.
A door was opened and the round table revealed itself – with every detail meticulously recreated. As the door slammed closed, our host revealed himself – smartly dressed and fully in character.
Claudia would have been proud – it was almost as if he were one of her disciples, which I’m guessing felt the same for the other seven rooms full of players in different stages of the experience.
We begin with a message from the queen herself, followed by our first time going into complete darkness by popping on blackout goggles.
Having selected that I didn’t mind, as soon as my goggles covered my eyes regret sank in. My palms became clammy, as I jigged my knee – I was now begging silently to not be chosen as suspenseful music echoed around me.
The music then rose to a crescendo, increasing the fear as it bubbled through my chest. Then it was over – the Traitors had been chosen, and I had remained a Faithful. Thank goodness.
With the experience progressing, players must complete five challenges to earn gold just as they do on the TV show.
In between the challenges, there are ‘nights’ where players put on their goggles again and someone is murdered.
There are also round tables, where you get to discuss players and ultimately vote to banish someone.
Read more on the experience – and discover who was a Traitor here.
For more immersive experiences, here’s another one that takes you all around London.
Plus, here’s another immersive attraction to open in the UK with indoor racing track and ‘top secret’ games.
