A Real-Life Judge Dredd Attraction is Coming To London in 2021
If you’re a fan of Judge Dredd, you might be excited to learn that a section of London will be transformed into Brit-Cit, the dark neo-future London setting of the classic comic.
As you know, Judge Dredd is best-known to be prowling the streets of Mega-City One, which is located on the eastern coast of North America, however, most of this attraction will be based in London’s Brit-Cit.
London's Crystal Maze LIVE Experience announced the plans and it will be called Judge Dredd Uprising: The LIVE Experience. The attraction will feature five different zones, a laser-tag combat area, and more. It’s scheduled to launch in the Spring of 2021.
Rebellion chief executive officer Jason Kingsley OBE said in a statement:
"The world of Judge Dredd is the greatest imaginative universe to come out of British comics and we’re proud to bring it to ever-wider audiences. Every reader has dreamed of setting foot in a Mega-City, and with Judge Dredd Uprising: The LIVE Experience they can do just that..."
Brit-Cit includes Piccadilly Circus, the New Old Bailey, but also a section to include the Cursed Earth. The description of the attraction says:
"In the sprawling megalopolis Brit-Cit, the post-nuclear London of the future, all manner of characters roam the streets. But Judge Dredd, has discovered a terrible plot and you and your merry gang of chancers are the city’s only hope!"
The chief executive officer of Little Lion, who operates the Crystal Maze LIVE Experience, describes this new Judge Dredd attraction as "part comic book, part sci-fi film, part immersive theater, part escape room, part action-adventure and part indoor theme park… all wrapped into one."
This sounds like fun! Here’s some concept art!
