The Cauldron is a technology-led entertainment studio that aims to deliver immersive experiences to its guests by combining technology with food and drink. Upon entering the company's venues, guests are given a magic wand, which acts as a control device for their visit. It helps them pour pints, activate lights and locks, explore science experiments, and stir cocktails. The device is also programmed to act as an open bar tab to track user spending. The Cauldron has served 1 million potions till date and welcomed 260,000+ guests. It has also inked ticket and product selling partnerships with entities like TimeOut, Airbnb Experiences, Secret London, Virgin Experience Days, and others. The company has featured on publications like Thrillist, NBC, Forbes, and Edinburgh News. The Cauldron will use 70% of the investment to open a central-London Cauldron flagship and provide additions to Wands & Wizard Exploratorium, 20% to finish the build for three new pop-up venues to open in markets across the US and Europe, and 10% to pay staff salaries.
