Organisers of a multi-sensory art experience are preparing to welcome visitors after a huge expansion.

A thousand square metres has been added to the 'OUTERverse walk through fantasy' at Wake The Tiger in central Bristol, with the project taking a year to build.

The attraction has welcomed almost 300,000 visitors since first opening nearly two years ago.Graham MacVoy, managing director, said his team is "counting down the days" until reopening on Friday.

Mr MacVoy said: "We're so proud of what we have achieved over the past 18 months, and this expansion is a natural progression for us here at Wake The Tiger."When you have so much creativity and talent all working together under one roof, you have to focus that energy somewhere."

Mr MacVoy said the team wanted to combine "connection, memories and spirituality" in an experience that will "blow their minds".

He said: "Every moment promises breath-taking visuals and awe-inspiring concepts beyond imagination."Words can't describe what to expect, so Bristol residents are just going to have to come and see it for themselves."
