Immersive and interactive Unicorn World comes to Columbus in July

COLUMBUS – Unicorn World, an immersive, interactive and themed event for all ages, will come to Columbus on July 8-9. The event, which includes a magical forest and animatronic unicorns, will take place at the Greater Columbus Convention Center.

Created and developed by husband-wife duo Patrick and Lauren Mines, Unicorn World is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for families to build memories together through themed activities, including the enchanted forest, arts and crafts activities, story time and colorful, life-sized, moving and neighing unicorns.

“We can’t wait for the Columbus community to experience the fun and magic of Unicorn World,” said Lauren Mines, co-founder of Unicorn World, LLC. “It is so rewarding to see people of all ages – especially children – walk in and become giddy with excitement. Our hope is that Unicorn World will foster connectivity between friends and families as they create fond memories through the event’s activities.”

The Columbus event will be the 11th of its kind, including previous events in Houston and Atlanta. The Mines plan to take the event across the country this year, including Memphis, Philadelphia, Minneapolis and the New York City area. Other cities also are expected to be added.

“The reception to Unicorn World has been incredible so far,” co-founder Patrick Mines said. “Even though there is so much happening in the world, it’s clear that people still want to celebrate creativity and joy. We are grateful to be the ones providing them a magical place where they can escape from the busyness of life and be together.”

Tickets, which are $30 per person and free for children under age 2, are being sold online in advance and will not be available for purchase at the event. To manage event flow and crowd size, time slots must be reserved. For more information about tickets, time reservations and add-on experiences, visit theunicornworld.com.
