Put on your baker boy hat. Immersive ‘Peaky Blinders’ experience comes to London, UK
The experience, called “Peaky Blinders Underworld,” transports guests into the shadowy criminal world of Thomas Shelby (played by Cillian Murphy in the series) and his infamous gang through interactive gameplay, live entertainment, and actor-driven encounters.
Landmarks fans should visit include The Shelby family’s iconic watering hole Garrison Tavern, which features live music, drinks and snacks, as well as The Bookies, Chinatown and Small Heath Fairgrounds.
Guests also have the opportunity to join Peaky Blinders, but first they must prove they have what it takes. Of course, there is also a gift shop, so you can take home souvenirs.

The experience, created by KMJ Entertainment in partnership with Banijay Rights, is scheduled to launch at Arches London Bridge in August.
“Peaky Blinders: Underworld is more than just a recreation of the Shelby family’s world, it’s a broader destination,” said Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. “This venue will give fans the opportunity to interact with their favorite series through a whole new prism, but even those who are less familiar with the show will find plenty to love about it.”
The series is produced by Banijay’s UK label Kudos and Garrison Drama and is available on BBC in the UK and Netflix in the rest of the world.
The standalone film Peaky Blinders: The Immortal was released earlier this year. Two subsequent series, led by the next generation of gangsters Jamie Bell and Charlie Heaton, are already in production in Birmingham, where the show is set, and are due to land in 2027 and 2028.
