Willy Wonka Glasgow experience organiser

The organiser behind the Willy Wonka Glasgow experience is ‘truly and utterly sorry’

‘I’m really shocked that the event had fallen short of the expectations of people’


At this point, we’re all suitably equally traumatised and entertained by the saga that is the Willy Wonka experience in Glasgow and the organiser has finally spoken out about what happened.

Whilst he admits he is “truly and utterly sorry” he also is “shocked the event had fallen short of expectations.” And as for why the Willy Wonka Glasgow experience came crumbling down, well it was all down to the fact that the holographic paper didn’t arrive in time.

That’s right, if only that holographic paper had arrived the event would clearly have gone completely flawlessly…

Billy Coull, the organiser behind the Willy Wonka experience in Glasgow told STV news: “I’m really shocked that the event had fallen short of the expectations of people on paper. My vision of the artistic rendition of a well known book didn’t come to fruition. For that I am absolutely truly and utterly sorry.

“There was every intention to hold the event, from the pictures, despite not being in the best light hopefully you’ll be able to see that there was every intention to hold the event. Unfortunately there was unforeseen circumstances and the event didn’t come to light.

“These issues were technological in nature. We had ordered a holographic paper that didn’t arrive on time. The holographic technology in itself is absolutely fabulous technology and unfortunately there was a delay in postage.”
