Novotel announces an enchanting collaboration with Universal Pictures for the much-anticipated release of Wicked. To celebrate the partnership, select Novotel hotels across Asia will be offering a Wicked-inspired high tea experience. Guests can enjoy spellbinding emerald-green cocktails and mocktails inspired by the dazzling lights of the Emerald City or try a Magic Elixir that channels Elphaba’s enchanting powers.
For a lighter twist, glamorous drinks inspired by Glinda paired with Wicked-themed bites bring a playful take to traditional high tea. Highlights include ‘bewitched’ beef sliders, a ‘gravity-defying’ creamy cottage cheese dip, and a matcha tiramisu that puts a whimsical spin on the classic dessert.
Guests staying at participating Novotel hotels in India, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam can experience the magic of Wicked by following the yellow brick road through selected lobbies to discover beautifully themed rooms bursting with vibrant pink and green hues.
Families can dive into the world of Oz-inspired enchantment by booking tickets to the movie and taking advantage of The Novotel Family Offer, where kids up to 16 stay and eat breakfast for free when sharing a family room with their parents.
After two decades as one of the most beloved and enduring musicals on stage, Wicked makes its long-awaited journey to the big screen as a spectacular, generation-defining cinematic event of the holiday season. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Jon M Chu (Crazy Rich Asians, In the Heights), Wicked is the first chapter of a two-part immersive cultural celebration. Wicked Part Two is scheduled to arrive in theatres on 26 November 2025.
Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy, and Tony-winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman misunderstood because of her unusual green skin who is yet to discover her true power and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman gilded by privilege and ambition who has yet to discover her true heart.
