Ready for the games to begin? In October, Midtown will be the home to “Squid Game: The Experience“ taking place at the Manhattan Mall and tickets are now available!
If you’ve been going through Squid Game withdrawal like us, we have good news for you! Due to a frenzy of demand and an incredibly successful pop-up in L.A., Squid Game: The Experience is finally making its way to New York! It officially opens on Oct. 11th!
Test your nerves through five intense challenges! Come face to face with the iconic Young-hee Doll in “Red Light, Green Light.” Will you freeze in time? Try your best to get all your marbles in the notable shapes from the show, the umbrella, circle triangle and star! Watch your step as you step across the treacherous “Glass Bridge.” Will you be able to identify which tiles are good to make it safely across?
The event personifies the series we all know and love but it also gives new twists and turns throughout the experience. Don’t worry, unlike the show, if you lose a game, you won’t be hauled away. While everyone can keep playing, only one winner will emerge!
Guests can enjoy the special night market before and after the games. Indulge in a variety of Korean-inspired food, cocktails, and mini-games. Bring on the gochujang! This is the perfect prize and end to this game (or build up your strength at the beginning)! There will also be exclusive merch for super fans. There will be plenty of photo ops all throughout the space, mirroring the aesthetics of the show.
Conveniently located in Koreatown, the Manhattan Mall at 100 W. 33rd Street is just a short walk from Penn Station and numerous train lines, making it easy to get to this one-of-a-kind event.
The experience is open to all ages, with general admission starting at just $39. This includes entry to the experience and access to the night market before and after the games!
For an even more exclusive experience, upgrade to VIP for just $65. VIP perks include front-of-the-line admission, complimentary coat check, discounts on merchandise and snacks, VIP Lounge access, a free drink, and an exclusive Squid Game mask!
