Spring is in the air, and a massive interactive candytropolis has risen in SoCal. Meet Sugar Rush, a deliciously sweet blitz of family-friendly FUN that will have guests of all ages enthralled. Sugar Rush is a safe, dynamic, open-air, on foot adventure encompassing a huge 50,000+ square foot, multi-world utopia.

Open daily, Sugar Rush will be a month-long singular event available exclusively from April 2nd – May 2nd. Bring friends, family, kids, and/or your beloved furry friend on Mondays through Fridays, 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Pacific Time and Saturdays through Sundays, 10:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m at the Promenade at Westfield Topanga, 6100 Topanga Canyon Blvd., Woodland Hills, CA.

Sugar Rush is a fully immersive but safe confectionary adventure. Every surface will be cleaned throughly for the duration of the event, and staff and performers will be masked and gloved. This distanced, limited capacity experience is a fun-filled oasis flooded with colorfully sweet installations, oversized props, art displays, custom parade floats, whimsical sets, countless curated photo ops, performances, immersive tunnels, geodesic domes, and multiple candy-powered interactions.

This spectacular, innovative event comes from the creative minds at Experiential Supply, the team who broke the mold back in 2020 with the tremendously popular Hauntoween LA and WonderLAnd drive-throughs, which kept the holidays fun and safe. Experiential Supply is an award-winning company to which the Hollywood film industry trusts to design large-scale, immersive experiences for films such as IT: Chapter 2, Ready Player One, The LEGO Movie, Smallfoot, and more.

“The drive-throughs have been a lot of fun and were necessary last year during the holidays,” says Experiential Supply CEO Jasen Smith. “Now, we feel it is time to welcome families into our world on foot to take in the rich, immersive environments we are building. The vast walking path we are creating naturally makes for a safe, distanced, and intimate experience. There are magical things to see and interact with. Plus, everyone’s favorite – candy – is included in your ticket price!”

You will definitely want to check out Sugar Rush! You will be transported into a magical life-size candy land like you’ve never seen before. Something everyone can enjoy – I know I sure did.

If you want to catch this trending photo op and/or experience the activation, you’ll need to get down to the the Santa Monica Pier any time between March 31st and April 4th. Wipeout’s iconic big balls pop up on the Santa Monica Pier at a whopping 25 feet tall and 70 feet long for fans and visitors to enjoy. But have no fear — this art installation is a Covid-safe, touch-free, family-friendly, interactive activation smack in the middle of the beautiful Santa Monica Pier that is sure to delight fans and visitors of all ages.

Everyone is welcome to stop by and participate in the photo opportunity in front of the big red ball installation and create mock contestant-style interviews for fun social media content and/or a playful memory. The onsite Wipeout “sideline reporter” will ask all the tough and hilarious questions. Fans are encouraged to share their best Instagram photo, telling their friends and followers why they have “big balls.” Visitors will also have the opportunity to scan a QR code and enter the Wipeout Bracket Battle for a chance to win the grand prize — a $1,000 gift card and exclusive Wipeout swag.*
