Secret Cinema, London’s viral, large-scale immersive film experience company, has unveiled its next swashbuckling venture: Pirates of the Caribbean.
In partnership with TodayTix, the business confirmed a new experience inspired by Disney‘s iconic blockbuster will sail into the British capital February 2027, promising cinematic-scale sets, live theatrical performances, stunts, and a live band in what is Secret Cinema’s “most ambitious production ever.”
Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: The Immersive Adventure launches exclusively in London, and its limited, 10-week run marks the first time the Johnny Depp-starring franchise has been adapted into an immersive theatrical experience.
It follows sold-out Secret Cinema screenings of the likes of Blade Runner, Casino Royale, Dirty Dancing, and 28 Days Later. The events ask attendees to dress for the occasion and use live actors to bring to life the extravagant sets recreated in various venues.
Just recently, Secret Cinema also revealed plans for a long-term flagship venue at Greenwich Peninsula, with Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: The Immersive Adventure set to be the first production staged in the company’s new long-term home.
“For 10 weeks only, guests will be plunged into the legendary world of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, with the freedom to roam richly detailed environments, encounter iconic characters, and become part of the story themselves. Every night unfolds as a high-energy adventure, culminating in a spectacular celebration worthy of the seven seas,” said Secret Cinema.
Merritt Baer, artistic director of Secret Cinema and co-founder of TodayTix, added: “Get ready for high jinks on the high seas! With epic aerial stunts, fearless swordfights and a cast of your favourite swashbuckling pirates, where better to invite audiences than raucous Tortuga and aboard the Black Pearl for the ultimate cinematic adventure: Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean.”
“We can’t wait to open our new flagship venue at Greenwich Peninsula, minutes from The O2 Arena, with the world premiere of Secret Cinema presents Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: The Immersive Adventure — a journey that we promise will blur the lines between film, theatre and live spectacle in Secret Cinema’s most ambitious production ever.”
Tickets will go on sale in April.
