Willy Wonka Glasgow: How a bizarre Scottish event went viral around the world
1 hr ago
THE story of a “Willy Wonka” experience gone wrong at a venue in Whiteinch has gone global.
Priced at £35 a ticket, the ‘Willy Wonka Chocolate Experience” promised a “paradise of sweet treats” as well as “mind-expanding projections and optical marvels”.
However, one parent has told how their eight-year-old child was left in tears at the experience as organisers pulled the plug halfway through the first day after being met with a furious reaction.
Parents were left “shocked” by the “pathetic” event as one explained how their children “received two jelly babies and a quarter of a can of Barr’s limeade”.
The story was first reported in the Sunday Mail at the weekend, and was then picked up by a number of Scottish outlets including Glasgow Live, STV and the BBC.

A woman who was hoisted into the air by shop shutters has joked she will have to "handle the fame" after CCTV of the incident went viral.
Anne Hughes, a cleaner at Best One convenience store in Tonteg, Rhondda Cynon Taf, was lifted several feet into the air when her coat got caught.
The store shared the clip on TikTok where it has been watched 1.8 million times.
"I'll never hear the end of it," she said.
Ms Hughes, 72, said she retired formally seven years ago but had been working at the store since then.
