The pictures in this post are from an event last summer, when hundreds of people went to an Ikea in Belgium for a giant game of hide and seek. It took place after a blogger by the name of Elise De Rijck came up with the plan on a bucket list of things to do before her 30th birthday, ABC News reported. She told the site: “Initially, I created a Facebook event for my friends, but thousands of people started joining. Ikea contacted me and said they wanted to help me organise the event. They had to spend money hiring extra staff and security, but it brought them a lot of attention.”
There was a smaller event in Sweden in 2009. However, this event in Coventry in back in 2010 ended up being cancelled.
