Welcome to the Cave of Wonders Grand Opening Party!

Join us at Sparkerland for a night of magic and mystery as we unveil our first of four shows for the 2025-26 Season. Explore the depths of the cave and discover unexpected treasures and wall writings throughout the space, with clues for chances to win special prizes in celebration of our opening.

Tickets include one free drink at the mocktail bar and one free raffle ticket. Additional drinks and raffle tickets will be available for purchase. We are a dry establishment, however guests are welcome to bring their own alcohol. Mundelein Liquors is located just 3 doors down, also in the Fairhaven Plaza.

This is a family-friendly event that includes the kids' dis/PLAY Room, a safe space parents can drop off children age 1-9 for a $5 fee, and explore the show while their kids enjoy the dis/PLAY amenities, under intern supervision. Nursing moms or those who need a sensory break can take a moment to relax in our back lounge, located near the restroom.

Don't miss out on this exciting experience! Created and curated by internationally-acclaimed artist Sparker, featuring artwork by Anastasia Samoylova, Video Waste, Joshuah Jest, Sissie Halperin, and Ellen Williams. Featuring a special 8-minute soundscape experience created by musician James Page of Blue Monkey Studios that will play approximately once every 30 minutes. Live performances by The Moon Witches, The Ultimate Alliance, and Lea Tanton + Mark Wilson to close out the evening.

Mark your calendars and get ready to embark on an adventure like no other. See you there!
