Santa Monica-born Candytopia is headed back to Atlanta, according to a press release. The “candy-themed wonderland” first debuted in the city in 2019, and apparently has been aching for a return.
“We’re thrilled to be returning to the city of Atlanta where we were so warmly welcomed in 2019,” says John Goodman, CEO of Youtopia Entertainment. “We’ve created an updated experience that our guests will find familiar, but with plenty of new surprises to discover.”
If you don’t know what Candytopia is, imagine Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, the 21st century Instagram version. It’s got over a dozen immersive, sugary experiences, including interactive art installations — and of course, candy samples.
Candytopia will open June 11th for a limited time, next to Buckhead’s Disco Kroger, at 3330 Piedmont Road NE. Tickets will go on sale on May 25th at 12pm EDT, and you can find them at the Candytopia website.
After a year of bitter isolation, let’s just say we’re ready for a sweet experience.
