The Experience

What is The Traitors: Live Experience?

The Traitors: Live Experience brings the excitement of the hit TV show into a thrilling live event. You’ll be immersed in a world of strategy, deception, and drama, playing alongside others in a real-time version of the game.

How long is the experience?

The game lasts about 2 hours, from start to End Game.

After the game, feel free to stick around in our Traitors bar, The Cloak & Dagger. It’s the perfect spot to debrief, swap stories, and savour your victory (or plot your revenge).

What will I be expected to do?

All the action happens at The Round Table where you’ll need to work with others to complete missions to win gold for the table, discuss suspicions, vote to banish potential Traitors and try to win – either as a Traitor or a Faithful.  

If you are a Traitor, your role is to murder one of your fellow players ‘every night’ and remain undetected by the rest of the group.  

If you are a Faithful, your mission is to work out who the Traitors are and banish them from the game before they successfully murder all Faithfuls.  

Does the live experience follow the same format as the TV show?

The live experience closely mirrors the gameplay you know and love from the TV show, with a few surprises to keep you on your toes. It’s designed to capture the same intrigue, alliances, and suspense in an action-packed live game. Centred around the iconic Round Table, you’ll complete missions to build a prize pot of ‘gold' for your team, all while competing against each other to ultimately claim victory.

Do I need to have watched The Traitors TV show to play the live game?

Not at all! While fans of the show will recognise some elements, the experience is designed to be enjoyable for everyone, regardless of familiarity with the TV series. Our Round Table Hosts will also be on hand to guide you through the whole experience.

How do you win The Traitors: Live Experience?

Survivors will face a gripping ‘End Game’ showdown, where the ultimate winner(s) will be crowned. Just like in the hit TV show, the finale will see either a team of Faithfuls claim victory by successfully banishing all Traitors, OR a cunning Traitor (or Traitors) win by outlasting everyone else.

Throughout the game, your team will collect gold during missions to build a collective prize pot. The more gold your team collects, the bigger the prize pot becomes. At the end of the game, the prize pot will be shared among the winner or winners and act as their score for the game. Those with the highest scores (most gold) will earn a spot on our coveted leaderboard.

Will Claudia Winkleman be there in person?

Claudia won’t be there in person during your game, you will be looked after by your very own Host who will be on hand to guide you through your experience.

Will I be playing with other people?

Yes, each table seats up to 14 people, so while you’ll always be seated with the group you booked with, you'll also be competing alongside (and against) other guests. The Traitors: Live Experience is designed to be played with people you don’t know – adding to the suspense, strategy and unpredictability of the game! Just remember, anyone could be your enemy, even your bestie!  

Most sessions are 18+ only. However, if you book a designated Family Friendly time slot, please be aware that guests under 18 may also be participating.  

How do you select who will be a Traitor? Will I have to be one?

Roles are assigned by your Host after onboarding and the first meeting. If you’d rather not take on the role of a Traitor, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to let us know before the game begins. That said, just like in the TV show, there may be moments during the game when the chosen Traitors may attempt to recruit you!  

Either way, your goal is to play your part and convince others you are a Faithful.

What is the age limit for The Traitors: Live Experience?

Most of our time slots are designed for participants aged 18 and over, ensuring a thrilling and intense atmosphere. However, we will also offer dedicated Family Friendly time slots, perfect for younger guests and their families to enjoy the experience together.    

While the recommended age for these time slots is 14+, the experience is open to ages 12 and up, with 12 to 15 year-olds requiring a responsible adult to accompany them.  

Family Friendly time slots are clearly labelled. Please be sure to check which session you are booking before purchasing.

What happens if I’m banished or murdered?

Don’t worry - the experience doesn’t end when you’re eliminated! If you’re banished or murdered, you can still watch the rest of the drama unfold.

But remember, just like in the TV show, staying in the game is key - so strategise carefully and try to avoid being the first to fall! 

I’m too afraid to play! What if I cry at The Round Table?

Ah, the drama of The Round Table! Fear not, brave soul - you’re not on national TV. Emotions are all part of the game, and they often lead to the most memorable moments. Remember, this is your chance to embrace the deception, suspicion, and intrigue in a safe, supportive space.

If the stakes feel high, that’s because they are… but we promise, no one is here to judge you. In fact, a few tears might even throw the Faithfuls off your scent.

Where is The Traitors: Live Experience?

The Traitors: Live Experience is opening in Covent Garden, London a 2-minute walk from Covent Garden Station and a 5-minute walk from Tottenham Court Road Station and Leicester Square station. For more information on getting to the venue, please visit our Location page here.

Address: The Traitors: Live Experience, 60 Short’s Gardens, Covent Gardens, WC2h

Will food and drink be available at the experience?

All that plotting and scheming can be thirsty (and hungry) work. Luckily, you can refuel at The Cloak & Dagger, our bar which is fully stocked with a full range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, as well as a smorgasbord of tasty bar snacks.

Am I able to drink during the experience?

Absolutely! You’re welcome to bring your drinks to The Round Table and enjoy them during the game. Our team will also be available to take drink orders (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) at selected points throughout the experience.

We do ask that you drink responsibly – because we want everyone to have a fantastic time. Please note that our Hosts reserve the right to remove anyone whose behaviour disrupts the game. And remember, you’ll need your sharpest wits to outsmart the Traitors and claim victory!

Can we take photos or videos?

You are welcome to take photos and videos throughout the experience, but please be respectful of others at The Round Table and listen to your Host! If they ask you to put your phone away at certain points, please do!  

Professional equipment and tripods are not permitted.

Is there a dress code?

No way! Whether you’re dressed to deceive or keeping it casual, come as you are - relaxed, comfortable, and ready to plot your way to victory. Cloaks and tweed are welcome, of course.

Is there a cloakroom?

Of course! What kind of Traitor experience would it be without a place to stash your cloaks? Leave your belongings behind and focus on the real challenge - keeping your secrets safe!

Are there any toilets?

Yes. Toilet facilities, including accessible toilets, are available inside the venue.

Tickets

How much are tickets?

Ticket prices start from £29.50 (plus fees) and prices will increase slightly when the last few tickets for that time slot remain. Simply, the earliest you buy, the cheaper the tickets will be. You can find detailed pricing and booking information on our ticketing page here.

Why are there some tickets available at £29.50?

We want the event to be affordable, so each time slot will start with a limited number of ‘Early Bird’ tickets at a lower rate. As these tickets sell, prices will change to the standard rate, with the final few being the most expensive - giving early birds the best deal while keeping it fair for everyone.  

If you want to secure an ‘Early Bird’ ticket, you can easily find these via filters on our ticketing system.

What ticket options are there?

Your ticket is your seat at The Round Table.  

All tickets are General Admission, with pricing based on when you book. Our Early Bird tickets offer the best value, so grab them while you can.  

For those wanting to book a VIP Private Table, there will be a limited number available for each time slot. You can easily find availability, ticket types and prices you are looking for using filters on the ticketing system here.

Will I be seated with my group?

All players who book together will play together. To guarantee you’ll be seated with your group, please book all tickets in the same order (basket) at the time of purchase. If you book separately under different orders, we cannot guarantee that you’ll be seated on the same table. Please note, you can only book a maximum of 8 tickets per transaction, and we are currently unable to combine bookings or add numbers to your party after the initial booking.

Why can I only book up to 8 tickets?

The Traitors: Live Experience is a game of strategy, deception, and social deduction and just like the TV show, is designed to be played with people you don’t know. We have purposefully limited groups who know each other to 8 per table to maintain a fair and balanced experience for all players at the table, including those attending in smaller parties. We are unable to accommodate groups of 9 for this reason.  

If you have a larger group of friends, family or colleagues, you can book a VIP Private Table for up to 14 players, but please note that you will need to purchase all 14 seats and have a minimum of 10 players at the table to secure a private game. You can book a VIP Private Table via our tickets page here.  

I can’t see the date I am looking for. Will further dates be made available?

The Traitors: Live Experience will release tickets in three-month blocks or ‘Seasons’ with further Seasons available to book later. If you want to buy a date in the future or you want to secure 'Early Bird' prices, please sign-up here to be the first to know when the next Season goes on sale.

Can my friends and I book our own VIP Private Table?

There are a limited number of VIP Private Tables available to book via our ticketing system for every time slot. You can find availability by using the filters on the ticketing page here.

In order to secure this VIP experience, you’ll need to book all 14 seats at the table, with a minimum of 10 players required to participate in the game. (Our VIP Private Tables includes a welcome drink)

If your date is on sale, but there aren’t any VIP Private Tables showing, then unfortunately your chosen date is sold out.

If your chosen date is not on sale yet (November, December, and January only) you can make an enquiry via the calendar on our Groups page here.

Because the VIP Private Table is your own, families are welcome outside of the designated Family Friendly Sessions, noting that the age restrictions still apply for the game play. (Please see our FAQ regarding age restrictions).  

What is your refund and exchange policy?

If you are no longer able to attend your booked date, you can reschedule your visit by contacting the Universe Customer Service team here.

*Please note, changes to your booking must be made at least 7 days before your visit date. Any changes made within the 7 days will not be considered.  

Tickets for The Traitors: Live Experience are non-refundable.

I haven't received my booking confirmation / tickets. What should I do?

If you have checked your spam/junk folder and you still have not received your tickets, it is possible that your email address was entered incorrectly when purchasing tickets or your account’s firewall is blocking our address. If you would like to amend this, please contact our ticketing customer service team here.

Can I book tickets on the door at the venue?

Tickets will be available to book online up to 1 hour before the start time.  

Tickets can only be purchased online via our website and will not be available at the door.

I want to book a corporate event, birthday party / Stag or Hen do; who do I contact?

For groups between 10-14 and 20-28 players, you can book a VIP Private Table (14 seats) for your party through the online system (limited availability, minimum 10 players for the game). You can book up to two VIP Private Tables per order and to secure a table you must book all 14 seats per table. Book your VIP Private Tables here.

Is The Traitors: Live Experience physical?

The Traitors: Live Experience has been designed so that everyone can experience the game from start to finish.

Do you offer carer tickets?

Yes, we provide one complimentary carer ticket per paying accessible visitor.

Are there any special effects, flashing lights, haze or other effects I should be aware of?

The Traitors: Live Experience uses a mixture of live sensory effects such as lighting, haze, and flash to enhance the experience. If you have any concerns and would like more information, please email our customer service team here.

I have another question about accessibility that isn’t listed on your FAQs. Can you help me?

We understand that not all requirements are the same or visible, and we strive to be as inclusive as possible to ensure that everyone who wants to participate can fully enjoy the experience.
