Stars of the iconic BBC show Gladiators will be at Bluewater on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd March taking over the Village Marquee for an exciting action packed immersive experience.
Fans can meet with the stars of Gladiators, take exclusive photos, and try their hand at special versions of popular events Hang Tough and Duel. Guests who meet the 1-metre height restriction will have the chance to battle it out on the inflatable podium or those who meet the 1.2-metre height restriction can test their stamina in the Hang Tough event, seeing if they can outlast their friends—or even a Gladiator!
The event is free of charge and open on a first-come, first-served basis from 10am to 5.30pm both days. To avoid disappointment, guests are encouraged to arrive early to secure their spot.
Dan Cavallo, Marketing Manager for the BBC, said: “We’re so excited to be bringing our largest scale fan activation yet to Bluewater. We are thrilled by the support for S2 of the show, and want to give fans the opportunity to meet the Gladiators and test their mettle in the ‘arena’. These events have been super popular, and we’re expecting our biggest turn out yet, so get down early and enjoy an exciting day of Gladiators action!”
James Waugh, Centre Director at Bluewater, said: “We are thrilled to announce that Bluewater will be hosting the biggest Gladiators immersive experience to-date later this month. It is going to be a fantastic opportunity for families to enjoy a free action-packed day out at Bluewater, with the chance to meet some of the cast as well as participating in the challenges.”
