NSPCC
Do you love Monopoly? Here's how you can participate in the NSPCC's first-ever life-sized game and raise vital funds for its helpline.
The 'world's favourite game' will be brought to life in an 80-minute physical, immersive experience.
The NSPCC Property Board is inviting those within the property industry to an evening of drinks and nibbles.
The friendly competition will be followed by a chance to network with our other industry professionals at an exclusive networking drinks reception.
Whether you opt for the Tophat or prefer the Thimble, here's everything you need to know about attending.
When is the NSPCC's Monopoly lifesized event?
The event is taking place on Wednesday, October 16 from 4:30-9:30 pm.
It will be held at 213-215 Tottenham Ct Rd, London W1T 7PS.
How much are tickets?
Teams are priced at £2,000 for a team of six.
There are also sponsorship opportunities still available.
You can keep up to date with all the details of the event - including timings, what to bring and the silent auction, via the event website.
What to expect from the event?
Each team will have their own Monopoly token which will represent them - just like they would in the board game.
The Scottie Dog, the Boot, the Racing car and more will all make an appearance in the life-sized version.
They will take scores and give hints to the players where required.
Meanwhile, each property square will have a full-sized location-specific room behind it that players enter to participate in a challenge to ‘acquire’ that particular property.
The challenges will be a mixture of physical and mental puzzles and games that will test players’ skills and lateral thinking.
They will be themed appropriately for the square and either feature some historical or current-day relationship with that part of London.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
