Mobile escape room for events and venues

Employers booking team-building, schools and youth groups, event organisers, and families hosting parties.

A fixed fee per event or a price per player, with the option to hire out the game to venues or add extra sessions on the same day.

• Puzzle and story design
• Hosting and facilitating groups
• Practical set-up and packing
• Selling to businesses and schools

• Public liability insurance, and check whether venues ask for their own risk assessment
• Never lock players in: use safe designs and check fire safety expectations with each venue
• Safeguarding checks may be expected when working with children, check with schools
• Carrying and setting up equipment is physical, and bookings can be uneven across the year

Startup costs are typically around £1,000 to £6,000, depending on how elaborate your puzzles, props and transport are. These are estimates, so cost out your own game design and equipment before committing.

Check you have public liability insurance and whether venues want their own risk assessment. Never lock players in, use safe designs and check fire safety expectations with each venue. Schools may expect safeguarding checks, so ask them.

Monthly revenue is typically around £500 to £3,500, depending on how many bookings you win and how uneven demand is across the year. This is an estimate, and you would need at least about 8 hours a week.
