This Christmas, Wake The Tiger will transform into a festive tradition with a twist, with the launch of RETRO-MEGA-MAS, running from Saturday 9 November 2024 to Sunday 5 January 2025. Known for its innovative and immersive experiences, the art park will transport visitors through decades of Christmas memories, combining retro charm with mind bending, surrealism.
Visitors to RETRO-MEGA-MAS will step into a world of vibrant nostalgia where iconic Christmas moments from the past are reimagined in unexpected ways. The experience will include a diverse array of sentimental installations, such as toy cars queuing to enter the attraction, a room filled with giant Rubik’s Cubes and a quirky invasion of the 1980s favourite slushy maker, Mr. Frosty. These blast-from-the-past touches are designed to evoke the joy of childhood Christmases while offering a fresh, creative perspective.
One of the major attractions at RETRO-MEGA-MAS will be the inclusion of robots created by artist Giles Walker. These festive androids will entertain visitors with acapella performances of holiday classics, such as Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree and Run Run Rudolph. This playful mix of retro music and futuristic artistry will add a unique twist to the Christmas atmosphere.
The immersive experience is further enhanced by creatively designed rooms and installations that blend retro themes with interactive elements. Visitors will encounter a magical pile of nostalgic toys, hidden dinosaurs watching television and one room transformed into a Rubik’s Cube wonderland. Other deft-defying installations include a shopping trolley balanced on the roof with teddy bears and Quality Street being sucked up into the OUTERverse. Every corner of RETRO-MEGA-MAS is designed to spark memories and encourage playful interaction.
An experience for all ages, families will find joy in rediscovering the toys and traditions of Christmases past, while adults will enjoy reliving their childhood memories in a new, creative setting.
