Labyrinth Masked Ball 2026

Fall under Jareth’s spell as THAMES CON and The Jim Henson Company commemorate the 40th Anniversary of Labyrinth with an enchanting Masked Ball on 22nd August 2026 at Wycombe Abbey, High Wycombe, UK. Inspired by Sarah’s surreal ballroom dream, this magical experience calls you into a world of fantasy, elegance and celebration.

Immerse yourself in an evening filled with spectacle and entertainment. Enjoy live performances in the medieval courtyard whilst sipping themed cocktails from one of our alfresco bars (we recommend Jareth’s Knockers!). Once the ballroom doors open, dance…magic dance…to the film soundtrack and 80s hits, waltz to live classical music, join in group dances, participate in competitions, pose for photo ops and discover other interactive surprises.

When the celebration reaches its 13th hour, a legacy guest will lead a special commemorative moment to honour four decades of the beloved film - an exclusive experience created just for this anniversary event.

Dress to dazzle, don your finest mask and lose yourself in a night where fantasy and festivity intertwine. The Goblin King awaits…

West Wycombe Park (ORIGINAL FILMING LOCATION OF THE OPENING SCENE OF THE MOVIE) will be open to the public on Sunday 23rd August, so why not make a weekend of it and party with us on the Saturday and get a picture on Sarah's bridge on the Sunday!

Please note: There will not be a full Labyrinth Experience Convention in 2026
