Alcotraz is a unique cocktail experience that takes place in Liverpool. It is inspired by the notorious Alcatraz prison in San Francisco and offers a one-of-a-kind immersive experience where guests can enjoy cocktails in a prison-themed setting.
When you visit Alcotraz in Liverpool, you'll first be greeted by the strict prison warden and will be required to wear an orange jumpsuit to fully immerse yourself in the experience. The venue is designed to resemble a prison, complete with cells, bars, and prison paraphernalia.
One of the main attractions at Alcotraz is the opportunity to make your own cocktails. Upon arrival, you'll be allocated a prison cell where you'll find a secret stash of liquor. You can then use this liquor, along with the provided mixers and garnishes, to create your own unique cocktails. The experience is interactive and encourages creativity as you experiment with different combinations of ingredients.
To enhance the prison atmosphere, the "guards" and "inmates" who work at Alcotraz are fully committed to their roles, adding an extra layer of fun and authenticity to the experience. They will interact with you, provide guidance on making cocktails, and may even attempt to bribe you for contraband items.
As part of the Alcotraz Experience, guests are required to bring their own liquor which you will smuggle into the Penitentiary. Please bring base spirits such as Vodka, Gin, Rum, Tequila or Whisky. The bootlegging gang inside Alcotraz have found that a 35cl bottle of spirit per two inmates or 70cl bottle per four is the easiest to get past The Warden. If coming in larger groups, please bring as few variations of spirit as possible within the group. Alcotraz operates a closed bottle policy meaning we will not accept any bottles previously opened. Please only bring new, unopened and sealed bottles. All bitters, purees, juices, syrups, liqueurs and other ingredients that go into making delicious cocktails are included within the entry price so please simply bring your own choice of liquor.
Please bring ID and arrive promptly for your sentence slot. If you are late to your sentence and have a ticket you will still be processed, as long as you arrive within 30 minutes of your experience start time. Unfortunately, if you are running over 30 minutes late for your experience you will be unable to enter.
The Alcotraz Prison Cells vary in size and can hold between 2 to 6 inmates. If attending in a small group of 2 or 3, we will do our best to ensure that you are kept separate from others and receive your own cell but on occasion this is not always possible and there is a chance that you may end up within the same cell as another couple or small group.
