Avora London REVIEW: Is This Family Immersive Adventure Worth It?

Have you heard of Avora? If you’re searching for an unforgettable, out-of-this-world experience in London, this is it. Originally designed as a thrilling adventure for adults, Avora has now been adapted for families to enjoy together—though if you’re seeking a night out with a twist, the adults-only version is still available. From jaw-dropping theatrical sets to incredible sensory experiences, Avora promises an immersive journey like no other, perfect for creating memories with your little explorers.

Our adventure began with a playful twist—getting suited up in Avora gear! The kids slipped into stylish jackets, while the grown-ups wore comfy jumpsuits that had us all feeling ready for our expedition. Right away, we were transported into a high-tech science lab, where we mixed up our first drink—a delightful cocktail that tasted just like Malibu, but completely alcohol-free, making it perfect for both kids and adults to enjoy. The whole setting had an air of mystery, hinting at the incredible journey to come.

Once our drinks were prepared, it was time for the real adventure to begin. Guided by our enthusiastic hosts, we embarked on a magical journey to the world of Avora, leaving London far behind. The transition felt like stepping through a portal into a new realm, full of vibrant colours, enchanting sounds, and surprising interactions with the friendly Avorians. As we explored, we encountered mind-blowing sensory moments that made the whole experience come alive in a way you wouldn’t believe until you see it yourself.

The actors at Avora were truly the heartbeat of the adventure. With their engaging storytelling and immersive performances, they made us feel like active participants in a living, breathing world. They were especially great with the kids, making them feel included and adding an extra layer of magic to the experience. Even my 14-year-old nephew, who’s usually not one to be easily impressed, had a blast! He was fascinated by the interactive elements, proving that Avora’s magic isn’t just for little ones. My 9-year-old daughter and 7-year-old niece were wide-eyed throughout, completely captivated by the immersive story and all the surprises along the way.

Sure, Avora comes with a bit of a price tag, but I can genuinely say that it’s worth every penny. It’s more than just a visit—it’s a 90-minute adventure that blends the best of live theatre, interactive storytelling, and immersive play. And the best part? You’re not just watching the show—you’re part of it! It’s a rare opportunity to experience something this special with the whole family.
