The FriendsTM Experience Is Coming To The Nec, Birmingham This Summer

Could we BE anymore excited? After a successful run in Paris with over 150,000 visitors and currently showing in Brussels, The FRIENDSTM Experience will be making its UK debut at the NEC in Birmingham on Saturday 8 July 2023.

FRIENDSTM fans will be able to recreate their favourite scenes and celebrate some of the most iconic moments from the globally loved television series in this truly unique interactive experience, created by Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment, Original X Productions, and Warner Bros. Television Group.

Featuring a variety of nostalgia-packed, interactive sets including Monica’s kitchen and the iconic FRIENDSTM fountain, The FRIENDSTM Experience provides guests with plenty of opportunities to explore the show’s history and re-create their favourite scenes, such as peeking around Rachel and Monica’s purple door, relaxing in Chandler and Joey’s recliners or helping Ross with the infamous sofa pivot.

Of course, no FRIENDSTM experience would be complete without paying homage to the sitcom’s famed coffee house, Central Perk, which will be fully recreated in Birmingham’s NEC, complete with the legendary orange sofa. Fans will also be able to sip on coffee from the Central Perk coffee stand and take home a momento of their visit from The FRIENDSTM Experience shop where they will find a selection of exclusive merchandise.

Tickets will be on sale from 17 May and can be purchased via the website.
