An Unexpected Marathon!

Wizards, Dwarves, and lovers of second breakfasts—your journey begins here! Join us for an all-day adventure through Middle-Earth with The Hobbit Extended Edition Trilogy Marathon. From the peaceful hills of the Shire to the fiery depths of Erebor, this is your chance to relive the epic prelude to The Lord of the Rings in one immersive sitting.

Our quest kicks off at 12noon sharp! Over the next 9+ hours, you’ll face trolls, dragons, and a gold-obsessed king—not to mention the rise of a certain dark power in the East. As always, there’ll be plenty of breaks for food, drinks, and leg-stretching between films. Even Bilbo wouldn’t dare skip dinner.

Grab your Trilogy Ticket and settle in for the full adventure... But be warned: once you've started down this path, it's terribly hard to turn back…

An Unexpected Journey (12:00pm – 3:05pm) "Home is now behind you. The world is ahead." Meet Bilbo Baggins as he’s swept into a grand adventure by Gandalf and thirteen dwarves on a quest to reclaim a lost kingdom. Expect trolls, goblins, and a very curious riddle game with a certain Gollum…

The Desolation of Smaug (3:35pm – 6:40pm) "If this is to end in fire, then we will all burn together!" The journey continues through Mirkwood, Laketown, and finally to the Lonely Mountain. With elves, barrels, and the terrifying might of Smaug the dragon, this chapter delivers action, tension—and treasure.

The Battle of the Five Armies (7:10pm – 9:50pm) "You have but one question to answer: how shall this day end?" The fate of Erebor hangs in the balance as armies gather, alliances fracture, and heroes rise. It’s an emotional, action-packed finale that sets the stage for the world we know in The Lord of the Rings.

So, call up your company, gather your courage, and prepare for a day of adventure, laughter, and dragonfire. Middle-Earth awaits—and this time, it's all about the journey there and back again.
