Official Doctor Who themed ‘Escape Rooms’ are heading to Birmingham, as part of a national launch of exciting live entertainment events later this year.

BBC Studios and Escape Hunt have announced that they will be bringing Doctor Who-themed live escape rooms to several locations across the nation.

From December 2018 the themed rooms will be available in the Bristol Escape Hunt venue, and from early 2019 further Doctor Who escape rooms will open in Birmingham, Leeds, Oxford and Reading.

Mat Way, Global Director of Live Entertainment at BBC Studios, says:

“It has been a long-term ambition of the team to be able to bring about Doctor Who-themed escape rooms. Our main role here at BBC Studios is to continually extend the fans enjoyment of our brands, and so to be announcing six new live entertainment games across the country to fans is something really exciting.”

Escape Hunt will be using the Doctor Who brand under license from BBC Studios.
