Monopoly Lifesized deserves a spot on your bucket list if you’re looking for an experience that’s fun, interactive, and completely different from the usual London sights. This immersive attraction puts you on a giant, life-sized Monopoly board, where you and your team become the playing pieces, navigating properties, auctions, and unexpected twists in real time.
What makes it truly stand out is that you’re not just watching the game—you’re in the action. Unlike other attractions, Monopoly Lifesized challenges you with hands-on tasks that test your strategy, teamwork, and luck, making the experience energetic, unpredictable, and fiercely competitive.
Monopoly Lifesized brings the game to life across four boards, each with its own challenges. Step onto the Classic Board to explore original streets, the Luxury Board for a touch of glamour, the City Board to experience London’s skyline with urban props, or the Own It All Board if you are a competitive player who loves fast-paced gameplay.
Immerse yourself in the challenge rooms at every property, each designed in an escape-room style. From puzzles and code-breaking tasks to interactive mini-games, these rooms mix physical activity with problem-solving, giving you the chance to win the property and outsmart your opponents.
Monopoly Lifesized is also filled with giant dice, oversized houses, and themed backdrops. Pause every now and then to snap photos or pose with costumed Mr. Monopoly characters to capture unforgettable moments.
Before or after your games, explore the on-site shop. From classic editions and special sets to Monopoly-themed collectables, it is a treasure trove for fans and the perfect place to take home a piece of the experience.
After all the excitement, the Top Hat Bar is the perfect place to unwind. With Monopoly-themed décor and playful nods to the game, it is ideal for celebrating victories, enjoying a themed drink, or relaxing after a fun day.
Step onto a massive 15 m x 15 m walkable board where each square feels real under your feet, and moving around feels like stepping into your favorite childhood game.
Monopoly Lifesized started as a fun, bold idea to bring the classic board game into the real world. The concept was announced in 2019 by Hasbro in partnership with Gamepath, part of the immersive theatre producer Selladoor Worldwide. The original launch planned for 2020 was delayed by the COVID‑19 pandemic, and the attraction finally opened in London on 14 August 2021 at Tottenham Court Road.
The experience takes everything you love about Monopoly, from walking around the board to buying properties and testing your luck, and mixes it with escape room-style puzzles and team challenges. With a full-sized 15 by 15 metre board to explore, it has become a hit for groups looking for fun, interactive gameplay and memorable social experiences.
Monopoly Lifesized was created through a collaboration between Hasbro, the company behind the classic board game, and Gamepath, a division of immersive entertainment producer Selladoor Worldwide. The attraction was developed by a team from immersive theatre, tech, and escape room design, with creative producers Tom Beynon and Paul Mansfield leading the project and set design by Tim McQuillen Wright.
Monopoly Lifesized is housed in a large three-storey building at 213‑215 Tottenham Court Road in London’s West End, transformed into a 22,000 square foot immersive experience space in 2021. The venue was originally a retail property that was adapted to accommodate life‑sized gameplay boards, challenge rooms, a themed restaurant and bar, and a retail area, all under one roof. Inside, the space balances open game floors with detailed themed zones, lighting effects, and oversized props, bringing the feel of Monopoly’s board to life in an interactive way.
