From the creators of HFF Best in Immersive winners Vote for MURDER & Unreal City CHAPTER 1: East Egg Join Nick on a journey back through his memories to better understand the tragedy of Jay Gatsby amidst the realities of wealth disparity and class struggles in America. Featuring an original score played by live musicians, GATSBY an Immersive Illumination is a dark ride-style immersive experience. Ticket price includes light fare and non-alcoholic beverages. Darling Nick! How have you been my dear cousin? I just heard you are coming east! How gorgeous! How long has it been? We are living in East Egg and you must come over for dinner immediately. I won’t take no for an answer. You haven’t met the baby; and you must see the house, it’s simply marvelous! I’ve talked it through with Tom’s assistant and she’s entered all of the possible times you could visit into the “TICKETS” link above. Please confirm when you decide which time is best by purchasing your ticket, there is a very limited amount of them available and I would hate for you to miss out! Oh and do be sure to enter your email address upon purchasing darling so I may send you gay and exciting messages before you arrive for dinner. This is a fully immersive experience and you may find yourself sharing an intimate setting; but I assure you everyone you will encounter here is absolutely fully vaccinated. Part of your visit will take place outside and part of it inside; please bring your own face covering for the indoor portion of the evening, we wouldn’t want that horrid influenza virus spreading through our gorgeous house now would we. And I’m sorry my dear cousin but you may only join us after showing proof of vaccination or test results from within three days’ time. I hope this isn’t too inconvenient darling, you do understand. Anyway do come see us Nick, or I shall just lie here weeping, forever missing your darling face. Daisy
