We now have 5 escape rooms with 4 different themes to choose from. Mountain Blizzard (2 rooms so you can race head-to-head), Jail Break, Udder Graziness and now BACKSTAGE PASS.

Step back into the vibrant era of 1978, where oversized cars, extravagant parties, and massive concerts define the scene. As roadies for a rock band, you’re living your dream. But with only an hour left until tonight’s show, the VIP passes are missing, and backstage entry is impossible without them. With a massive audience anticipating a great time, you must locate your passes and set up all the equipment within the next 60 minutes. The show must go on!
