How a company holiday party works for 8, 32 or 100+ people
Each team gets its own room and 60 minutes on the clock. The size of your company only changes how many rooms and rounds we run.
Up to 8 people
One private room
One private room at 501 Union Street. A leadership team or a small office fits in a single game, and nobody is left watching.
About $280 before tax. We can fit 10 in a room on request.
Up to 32 people
Every room at the same time
All four Nashville rooms start together. Put two teams in the twin C-Block Prison Break cells for a head-to-head race, and send the puzzle people to The Inheritance.
From 3 rooms (24 people), the 15% group discount applies Sunday through Friday.
33 to 100+ people
Back-to-back rounds
Play in back-to-back rounds at 501 Union Street. A 50-person company plays in two rounds, and the group that is waiting can have appetizers a short walk away.
Our events team builds the schedule around your evening.
Why an escape room beats the usual office holiday party
Most holiday parties fail for the same reason: there is nothing to do. An escape room fixes that in the first two minutes. The door closes, the clock starts, and your team has 60 minutes to work together.
- Everyone participates. Puzzles need readers, searchers, organizers and the person who notices the odd detail on the wall.
- It mixes departments. Shuffle teams so sales, operations and finance end up in the same room.
- No skills, no fitness level, no drinking required. It is one of the most inclusive party formats you can pick.
- It has a finale. Teams compare escape times, a champion gets crowned, and the debate moves to dinner.

A holiday party venue five minutes from Broadway
Escape Experience Nashville is at 501 Union Street, in the middle of the downtown business district and a five-minute walk from Broadway. Many downtown teams walk over from the office. The venue has four rooms: two identical C-Block Prison Break cells, The Inheritance, and Vaccine: Search for the Cure.
The twin C-Block cells are the format Nashville companies ask for most at the holidays. Two teams of up to 8 start the same escape on the same clock, and the first team out wins. Sales against operations, the East office against the West office, leadership against everyone else.
Build the rest of the evening in downtown Nashville
- Dinner:
- Puckett’s is around the corner on Church Street and has space for groups. Assembly Food Hall at Fifth + Broadway is about four blocks away, with plenty of choices for a picky group.
- Parking:
- The Nashville City Center garage is next door, and the Public Square Garage is a short walk.
- Out-of-town team:
- Most downtown hotels are a short walk from the venue, so nobody needs to drive after the party.
Which Nashville rooms fit which teams
- C-Block Head-to-Head
