Running an escape room or immersive venue has never been more demanding. Rising costs, changing customer expectations and new operational risks mean making the right decisions has never mattered more. Join fellow owners from across the UK for a day of practical insights, honest conversations and valuable connections designed to help you strengthen your business, avoid costly mistakes and discover new opportunities for growth. Whether you're an established operator or just getting started, you'll leave with ideas you can put into practice straight away.
The day combines expert keynote sessions, interactive round table discussions led by ERIC, and panel conversations covering some of the biggest challenges facing our sector, including influencer marketing, cyber risks, HR and employment, and finance and funding.
As the sun goes down, we'll move into the exclusive surroundings of the Black Country Living Museum's atmospheric 1930s High Street for an evening of networking, entertainment and catching up with friends old and new.
As always, every penny from ticket sales goes to charity thanks to the support of our sponsors, making this an event where everyone benefits.
