Lost Lagoon: Bompas & Parr launching 'world’s biggest underground boating lake'

A huge underground lagoon hosting rum soaked parties is opening in London next month, which organisers claim is "the world's biggest underground boating lake."

The pirate-themed publicity stunt, which allows guests to set sail between different desert islands, comes from food and event maestros Bompas & Parr, and Captain Morgan rum. Visitors will navigate the immersive “neo-tiki” world by boat, picking up ingredients along the way to make their own cocktails, all the while facing challenges.

Along the way, they'll need to dress up in disguise, break out of jail and decipher 'ancient' tablets. They'll also have to combat ever changing weather, simulated by rain and wind machines.

Guests who are up for living the pirate’s life will also be able to enjoy beach-inspired food, entertainment and a whirlpool cocktail bar, which will be serving up an array of rum punches.

Speaking exclusively to the Standard, Bompas & Parr co-founder Harry Parr said: “Rum punches were the ultimate party drinks of yesteryear.

“We’ve spent the last six months working with Captain Morgan to create the ultimate cocktail adventure where you can concoct your own.”

“Lost Lagoon will be the most extravagant and luxurious immersive production of 2019,” added co-founder Sam Bompas, promising “a host of challenges, caves and wonders”.

The Lost Lagoon will run from January 29 - March 13 2019. Tickets from £20 - £45 and go on sale Friday December 14. For more information, visit lostlagoon.org
