Your closet has been hiding that Alice in Wonderland costume for too long. Backroom Social in Springdale is hosting a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party where dressing up isn’t just acceptable, it’s the whole point.
What’s Happening Inside Wonderland
You’ll find everything from a photo booth capturing your best Alice-inspired poses to a DIY card rose craft station. Vendors will be set up throughout the venue selling Wonderland-themed treasures, and the card tournament offers a chance to test your skills against fellow guests.
The specialty drinks menu leans into the theme, giving you plenty of options to sip while you move around the venue.
Dress Like You Mean It
The costume contest gives you a reason to go all out with your Wonderland look. Dress as Alice, the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, or any character from the story. You can also create your own interpretation of Wonderland style. The competition tends to bring out creative costumes, so if you’re planning to enter, commit to the theme.
