About the event

The Great Escape Begins
An open call for artists, designers and creative thinkers to help design an escape room for Z-arts.

About this Event

Join us at Z-arts, Manchester, from 2–5pm for an afternoon of ideas, inspiration and interactive play. Over tea and cake, pioneers behind some of the celebrated escape rooms – will share insights into their creative process: how they turn stories, spaces and puzzles into unforgettable shared experiences.

This session is the starting point for a project to develop a new escape room at Z-arts – one that reflects their mission to inspire creativity and connect families through play. We’re looking for artists, designers, theatre-makers, writers, technologists, and curious minds who want to explore how storytelling, problem-solving and design can come together in a live, immersive experience.

Come along to find out more about the challenge and opportunity, meet other creative collaborators, and discover how you could receive funding to develop your escape room concept for Z-arts.

Date: Tuesday 13th January
Time: 2pm – 5pm
Venue: Z-arts, Stretford Road, Manchester
Includes: Tea, cake, conversation and a taste of mystery.


There will also be the chance to experience the current escape room at Z-arts - we will email attendees early January to offer time slots before and after the session.
