Thornbridge Academy is in session. Who will you be on the other side?
Thornbridge is a Nordic-style, Gothic Academia larp for 75 players exploring transformation, grief, power, and romance. It invites players into an Academy that exists between worlds where supernatural beings and those with power, on the verge of change, are called, not enrolled. Everyone at Thornbridge is standing at a threshold, but not everyone is ready to cross it.
Over the course of the event, you’ll embody a student caught between who they are and who they might become. You’ll face the pull of volatile friendships, whispered romances, and unspoken late-night activities. Not everyone makes it through their Reckoning unchanged. Some transform. Some break. Some are never seen again.
The event will take place at the DeKoven Center in Racine, WI, about two hours from Chicago, on Memorial Day weekend 2027, from Thursday, May 27 – Monday, May 31, 2027.
Cost 975 for a ticket, including all food, 3-½ days of larp, and 4 nights of lodging. Scholarship tickets and payment plans are available.
Signups will open on March 1 2026. Read more on www.thornbridgelarp.com
