Netflix keeps making Squid Game a reality.
First, the streaming giant produced Squid Game: The Challenge, a competition show that eerily recreated some of Squid Game‘s greatest hits, from Red Light Green Light to glass bridge hopscotch. Then, in Dec. of 2023, Netflix opened Squid Game: The Trials in Los Angeles. The Trials invited fans into an immersive, Squid Game-themed experience that tested their luck and skill in the show’s deadly children’s games. Now, Netflix is bringing that experience — renamed Squid Game: The Experience — to New York City.
Opening on Oct. 11 at the Manhattan Mall, Squid Game: The Experience lets players compete — as individuals, or in groups of up to 24 — for Squid Game glory. An Aug. 13 press release from Netflix teases that while some of the experience’s games are inspired by the original show, some are brand-new. (Red Light Green Light will definitely be involved, though, as the press release points out terrifying murder doll Young-hee will be in attendance.)
Once the games portion of the experience is done, participants can enjoy Korean food and drinks at the Night Market, or check out the Squid Mart for exclusive merchandise.
Tickets for Squid Game: The Experience start at $39, with general sales beginning Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. ET. However, if you don’t want to wait that long, you can join the waitlist now for the chance to purchase tickets before anyone else.
Squid Game Season 1 is now streaming on Netflix. Season 2 premieres Dec. 26.
