Inside the Experience: Highlights & What to Expect

It’s hard to explain without giving too much away, but think: live theatre meets theme park ride meets music video. Based on Jeff Wayne’s legendary musical version of The War of the Worlds, the whole thing takes place in a brilliantly designed steampunk world where the Martians are invading and you’re caught right in the middle of it.

Explore 24 Epic Scenes (Yes, including VR!)
Step into the story across 24 fully immersive scenes! Crawl through smoky tunnels, dodge Martian heat rays, and take flight in a virtual hot air balloon as you escape the invasion. It's not just a show, it’s a full-on sci-fi adventure the whole family can dive into.
Feel Every Boom, Blast & Tentacle
This is a true sensory ride! Feel the tremor of a 300-foot Martian machine, smell the scorched earth, and get sprayed with sea mist as chaos unfolds around you. Expect rumbling floors, poking tentacles and goosebumps. Warning: your senses will be on red alert!
Jeff Wayne’s Iconic Score, Reimagined Live
Hear the legendary soundtrack like never before. With nine newly remastered tracks, live actors, surround sound and holograms, Jeff Wayne’s epic music becomes the heartbeat of your journey. It’s cinematic, dramatic and totally unforgettable.
