Fans of the iconic television series "Friends" will soon have the chance to visit the Central Perk coffeehouse and Monica and Rachel's kitchen — without ever leaving Salt Lake City.
What's happening: "The Friends Experience" is coming to The Gateway Oct. 20 through Jan. 28, 2024.
- The interactive exhibit first launched in New York City in 2019 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the sitcom, which ran from 1994-2004.
- The pop-up has toured in several U.S. cities, including Seattle, San Francisco and Chicago.
The intrigue: Last year, CNN included the exhibit in its "best immersive experiences around the world" list.
Details: The Instagram-friendly exhibit will allow visitors to walk through and take selfies in recreated sets from the show, such as Joey and Chandler's apartment and the fountain from its title sequence.
- Attendees can also relive scenes, like Ross' laughable attempt to move a couch up the stairs.
Admission: Tickets are $26.50, plus fees.
