Is the experience scary?
The Gunpowder Plot is not a 'jump-scare' attraction, but the actors may make physical contact with guests as part of the experience. If you would prefer to avoid any contact, please let our team know when you arrive.
Throughout the experience, all guests are expected to behave appropriately and safely. This includes refraining from abusive language, disruptive behaviour or touching any actors/other guests. We’re all here to have fun, right?!

Food pre-orders are required at least two weeks prior to the event date or within 24 hours if a booking is made within two weeks of the event date. Pre-booked food relates to a specific group booking and cannot be transferred to a different/future booking.
