The viral Willy Wonka 'Chocolate Experience' is heading to the US
Newsy
An Eventbrite page says the event follows the "groundbreaking success" of the Glasgow experience that spawned dozens of memes.
You may have lived through every second of the now-infamous "Willy Wonka Chocolate Experience" from behind your phone screen, but what if you were given the chance to live out the meme in real life?
Yes, the now-infamous Glasgow event that became a viral hit and made worldwide headlines is coming back — this time, to California.
According to a page on Eventbrite, which firstly states "YES THIS IS A REAL EVENT," "Willy's Chocolate Experience LA" will mark the return of the "highly-acclaimed" adventure and its debut in the U.S. following its "groundbreaking success" at the Glasgow event.
But those descriptions probably aren't how attendees would describe it — if they're not just laughing about it now.
Visitors attending the Glasgow event in February were promised an "immersive" Wonka-themed experience complete with giant props, dancing Oompa-Loompas and candy galore. Instead, they were met with a large warehouse filled with lackluster decorations, a half-inflated bouncy castle and two jellybeans each, one attendee told The New York Times.
