Step Into a Bioluminescent New World Hidden Beneath Shoreditch

Book Now

Welcome to Avora

A gateway has opened beneath the streets of Shoreditch. Step through it and you leave Earth behind for Avora, a bioluminescent world no human was meant to see.

You cross into this immersive experience in London as one of Roscorp’s chosen few, recruited for the first expedition to make contact. Live actors, theatrical sets and three handcrafted cocktails or mocktails pull you deeper into the planet as the night unfolds.

Meet the Avorians. Explore the glowing forest. The further in you go, the clearer it becomes that Roscorp hasn’t told you everything. Before your time is over, you’ll find out what Avora really wants.

Your First Stop

Roscorp Laboratories

The lab is your threshold. You’ll check in, lock away your belongings and pull on a Roscorp jumpsuit. Dr Shelly runs your briefing. Mason, head of security, runs the search. Try not to give him a reason.

Human bodies can’t survive the planet’s atmosphere unprepared, so before you cross you’re handed a flask of Luminol, a substance found only on Avora. It’s your first cocktail, sealed and yours to carry through the gateway to drink on the other side.

Then the portal opens. Whatever Roscorp told you about Avora, you’re about to learn how much of it was true.

Through the Gateway

A New World

Step through the gateway and the forest answers back. Light moves through the trees in pulses as you enter a world unlike anything on Earth.

The Avorians will guide you. Two more cocktails, built from the planet’s own ingredients, are yours as you explore. Nothing here is given without reason. The Avorians are deciding whether humanity can be trusted, and the last team sent through the gateway never came home.

Find out what happened to them. The answer is on the planet, if you know where to look.

Watch the World Come to Life

The Nighttime

The deeper you travel, the stranger Avora becomes. Glowing light runs through the whole ecosystem and the tension shifts around you.

Inside the Avorians’ shelter you’ll learn what they are protecting, and what Roscorp is really doing on this planet. You are standing inside the biggest discovery in human history. The only question left is what it will cost.

The Harvest is almost here. The Avorians would very much like you to stay for it.

A Unique Theatrical Cocktail Bar in Shoreditch

The Story

Avora is a unique immersive bar in London, built inside a fully working theatrical set, that places guests at the heart of the story. You’ll never experience another cocktail adventure quite like it. Scroll to find out more…

Jeff Rosbourne is CEO of Roscorp Enterprises, one of America’s largest technology corporations. Following the remarkable discovery of a gateway that leads to the magical new world of Avora, Rosbourne purchased the surrounding land.

Dr C. Shelly, one of the first Roscorp employees on Avora, helped build the laboratory around the gateway. She has developed a synthesised version of a precious substance discovered on Avora to allow visitors to safely enter the world.

Roscorp is now funding the exploration of all research teams making their way safely to the new planet. You will mark the first civilian team to travel to Avora. Your mission is one of discovery.

Avora is swathed in lush woodland by daylight, but the world truly comes to life at night. Almost the entire ecosystem emits bioluminescent qualities which light up the dark and make the forest extraordinary. This is believed to be the result of a precious substance named Luminol.

As you explore, it is essential that you discover continued sources of Luminol to survive. Luckily, Dr C. Shelly has established a relationship with the inhabitants of Avora, who know many of the planet’s secrets – including where to find the precious substance.

Whilst on your mission of discovery, you’ll interact and engage with the local Avorians. They may just have the answer to help us save our own planet.

Safety and security is of utmost importance on Avora, as there is much to the world we are yet to discover. Expect to see Sergeant Mason Kryll on your mission.

Transmissions From Roscorp

Avora is a unique interactive bar in London where you're recruited for a research mission to a newly discovered planet. Roscorp briefs you, hands you a jumpsuit, and sends you through a gateway most people don't know exists. What's waiting on the other side is part of the mystery. You can expect three cocktails or mocktails that are woven into the story as you go. Whether you're new to immersive experiences or you've already worked your way through London's themed bars, this one plays by different rules.

Each person in your group will receive three full-strength cocktails, each tied to a moment in the story. The first will be handed to you even before you set foot on Avora and will get you ready for the mission you are embarking on. The other two are built around the world you're standing in. Mocktail versions are available for anyone who'd rather not drink alcohol.

Yes, non-drinkers are welcome at Avora, and they get the full experience. Every cocktail has a mocktail version mixed to the same recipe, served in the same glass at the same moment in the story – just without the alcohol. Let us know on arrival and we will take care of the rest.

Not at all. Our actors are the ones doing the acting. You'll cross through the gateway with Dr Shelley, and it isn't long before something on the other side makes it very clear you're not alone. Some guests stay quiet and watch the drama unfold. Others lean in and bring their own character into the plot. Either way works and you can be as involved as you want to be.

That's the goal. Avora is not just an activity bar in Shoreditch: it’s a fully immersive experience with cinematic sets, bioluminescent plants, a unique soundscape, and a cast who stay in character from beginning to end. By the time the lights drop and the forest starts glowing around them, most guests forget they're still in London.

Yes. If dinner-then-drinks has gotten predictable, Avora gives you something to react to together: a portal, a briefing that doesn't quite add up, and a planet that knows your name before you've said it. You'll spend the evening side by side working out who to trust.

The Avora London immersive cocktail experience lasts 1 hour and 45 minutes from your start time. That covers your Roscorp briefing, your time on Avora, and all three cocktails.

No. Avora is an immersive cocktail bar in Shoreditch built inside a live theatrical set. There are no locks to crack or puzzles on timers. Instead, you're recruited by Roscorp for a mission to another planet, you meet what's waiting for you there, and you drink three cocktails or mocktails along the way. Not everything you're told before you go through the portal turns out to be true.
