Glastonbury
Dare to enter the world of Lab Rats and pit your wits against our crack team of experimenters, and see if you pass the test. Where will you end up – heaven or hell? An unconventional experiment designed in collaboration with Ridley Buchanan Architects…

Two years ago we invaded the Shangri La field with the Decontamination Unit, a giant immersive installation in the middle of the naughtiest corner of Glastonbury, featured in The Guardian and the G2, The Times, Getty Images and Q magazine.

Read all about the idea here, check out a short film taking you through the cleansing of the muddied revellers here, see more pictures of our microbiologists, psychiatrists and haz mat suits here, and check out all the press coverage here. What will this year’s experience be like? Something equally unsettling, to be sure…

Secret Garden Party
This July we’ll return to our birthplace and our spiritual home, The Secret Garden Party!
Expect more of the trademark style of renegade research we’ve been busting out in the garden since 2008, like the Particle Zoo Safari (featured in The Guardian)…

life drawing classes…

disgusting challenges…

and of course, all the animals who’ve been crawling over you and winning your hearts…

Wilderness
Last year we had a smashing time at Wilderness, the most verdant and sumptuous of festivals to be found amid Albion’s fair and pleasant hills.
Last year we invaded the woodlands and smashed it up hard with our catapults in the Splurdge Fight with the Future Cinema’s screening of Bugsy Malone

This year we’ll be back for more delicious treats to pepper the leafy grounds with our guerilla warfare tactics… just you wait and see.

Royal Palaces
Every day this bank holiday weekend, Saturday May 25th, Sunday May 26th and Sunday May 27th at Hampton Court Palace and Kensington Palace, experience life as a Georgian-era royal surgeon with live leeches, bloodletting tools, and surgical demonstrations. And if you’re feeling brave, a medical makeup artist is on hand to recreate smallpox pustules on your arms, leg or face…

Plus, discover the links between the Royal Court of King Charles II and the alchemical arts, and watch a spectacular and explosive performance from the inimitable Dr Andrew Szydlo.

Part of a number of events we are running for visitors at London’s Historic Royal Palaces – Hampton Court Palace, Kew Palace and Kensington Palace. As a tie-in to the BBC 2 TV series Fit to Rule: How Royal Illness Changed History.
