BURBANK, Calif. (July 29, 2019) — We are no longer on a break, FRIENDS fans! “The One with the Pop-Up” is here! It’s been 25 years since the first time we met Ross, Rachel, Joey, Monica, Chandler and Phoebe, so set your calendar back to 1994 and revisit some of the series’ most iconic moments with an immersive pop-up experience brought to you by Superfly, Warner Bros. Consumer Products and Warner Bros. Television Group. Tickets will go on sale Friday, August 2, exclusively at www.friends25popup.com.
The nostalgia-packed space offers fans the opportunity to explore the show and capture photos with set re-creations, props, and costumes that have defined 25 years of everyone’s favorite FRIENDS. Stick a turkey on your head, peek through Rachel and Monica’s purple door, relax on Chandler and Joey’s recliner after playing some foosball, or help Ross with the infamous sofa pivot. Learn Monica’s top tidying tips with Method Home Products and surround yourself with Phoebe’s favorite things before heading to the re-created Central Perk for a pic on the legendary orange couch. Could this BE any more exciting?
