The Design Museum has launched “The World of Tim Burton” exhibition which allows new event packages for corporates to create their own burtonesque events.
To celebrate the launch of the exhibition, the Design Museum worked with its event partners to create a Burtonesque world, from canapes and spooky bites and bubbles by Nyetimber English Sparkling Wine to gothic inspired styling and a specially curated dance performance by Trinity Laban.
Tim Burton was on hand to present his works that span illustrations, paintings, photography and sketches from some of the world’s most iconic productions including Edward Scissorhands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Wednesday and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Already, the exhibition hit record ticket sales which has resulted in the Design Museum creating a special package for corporate events designed to transport guests directly into Burton’s weird and wonderful universe.
Young Guns will provide entertainment for The World of Tim Burton Event Package which will include Jack Skellington stilt walkers, roaming Alice in Wonderland characters, ghostly string quartets and gothic DJs. Event Concept will be combining Burton’s distinct aesthetic with bold production elements, whilst Veevers Carter will be styling the event with gothic inspired flower installations and centrepieces.
Jimmy Garcia Catering, noted for creativity, sustainability and seasonality, has created a series of menus for every occasion that further underline “The World of Tim Burton”.
Livia Puggini, head of commercial hire & events, said: “Burton’s work has had a profound influence on art and film, and this exhibition offers guests an extraordinary glimpse into his creative process. Add in our partnerships with some of the capital’s best event creators and we are very proud to headline the weird, whimsical and wonderful as part of an event experience as we know it will get the conversation started for any audience.”
The Exhibition is now open, running until 21 April 2025.
