'Immersive Experience' Rooted In Nature Coming To Woodfield Mall This Fall

SCHAUMBURG, IL — A brand-new immersive experience rooted in nature and imagination is coming to Woodfield Mall this fall. "Wondra" is described as a "fantastical attraction that blends nature, technology and storytelling into a breathtaking, multisensory journey."

Merlin Entertainment, creators of the attraction, said "Wondra" spans over 11,000 square feet. Vistors of all ages will walk among cloudscapes in dreamy skies, illuminate enchanted meadows with the sound of their voice and uncover hidden ecosystems through multisensory play. Every step is crafted to spark curiosity, foster emotional connection and ignite awe, according to Merlin.

Guests can join the waitlist for early access to tickets on Aug. 12, and general ticket sales begin on Aug. 13. "Wondra" can be found through Entrance 5 between Macy's and the parking garage near the lower-level dining pavilion, next to Peppa Pig World of Play.

"WONDRA is rooted in the idea that people are drawn to nature and we all crave more of it in our lives," said Liz Cummings, Merlin Magic Making Creative Lead for New Products and Concepts. "In creating this world-first attraction in under a year, we were able to respond to the moment—tapping into current trends and what people are truly longing for, and making it come alive with creativity, innovation, and the signature Merlin magic that our guests expect."
