The Mad Hatter's tea party
Imagen
In the book, the tea party never ends because the clock stopped at six. It is the heart of the Alice themed event: a long table of teapots, mismatched cups and sweets.
- Living Cupcakes: a performer in a dress holding about 150 cupcakes.
- Sweets candy bar.
The chocolate fountain comes with strawberry, banana, peach, marshmallows and sponge cake, with staff included, and the waffle cart rounds off the tea party. The cupcakes for the dress can be supplied by the client or by us as an extra; a custom dress design needs 1 month's notice. A few "Eat me" and "Drink me" labels on the sweets do the rest.
The Queen of Hearts' game: giant chess and croquet
Imagen
Lewis Carroll loved chess, and Alice's second adventure is a game on a giant board. At the Alice themed event guests play life-size:
- Giant chess: 5 × 5 m board and a 63 cm king.
- The Queen's croquet with a 6 or 9-hole mini golf.
In the book the Queen plays croquet with flamingos and hedgehogs; we turn it into a mini golf course with obstacles and a prize for the best shot. The chess is played with the traditional rules while the audience follows the game, and it is set up in 30 minutes. More giant games, such as mikado or snakes and ladders, keep everyone playing in the Queen's garden.
Wonderland characters and corners

What makes the Alice in Wonderland themed event unforgettable are the unexpected encounters along the way:
- 3 m stilt walkers dressed as chess pieces or forest trees.
- Living statues that come to life in front of guests.
A magician with packs of cards recalls the Queen's playing-card soldiers, and close-up magic tours the tables. The vintage telephone invites guests to leave a message "through the looking-glass", and the London phone box adds Carroll's British touch. For children, a storyteller narrates the tale, and a caricaturist turns each guest into a character from the book. If your client wants princesses and film characters for children, see the Disney themed event; this one is based on the original book.

Alice in Wonderland party for weddings and corporate family days
A topsy-turvy world
An Alice in Wonderland themed party has the rare gift of pleasing every age: children recognise the story and adults enjoy its Victorian, slightly eccentric style. That is why it works as well at a corporate family day as at an elegant celebration. Nothing here is quite what it seems.
At an Alice themed wedding, Carroll’s world inspires an original reception, with corners that surprise guests as they wander around. At a brand activation, the topsy-turvy world is the perfect excuse to present a product in an unexpected way. And for a themed birthday party, just celebrate the famous «unbirthday». Ask for a quote for your event anywhere in Spain.
- Spring family days: a garden of games and an afternoon tea that children and parents enjoy together.
- Victorian inspired weddings: a reception full of curious details that guests talk about for days.
- Original brand activations: Alice’s upside-down world as the stage for presenting a new product.
- Birthdays and private parties: an «unbirthday» celebration with sweets, games and characters.
