Escape Room Festival – A Week-Long Celebration of the Global Escape Room Day!
SLOVENIA CELEBRATES WORLD ESCAPE ROOM DAY WITH THE “ESCAPE ROOM FESTIVAL”
📍 Ljubljana, 30 September 2025 –
Escape rooms are one of the fastest-growing sectors of immersive entertainment worldwide. Recent research confirms that players are willing to travel over 5,000 kilometers for a single top-quality escape room experience. Why? Because today’s escape rooms go far beyond padlocks and puzzles – they’ve evolved into full-scale cinematic adventures, where players are thrust into thrilling storylines and become the heroes of their own immersive journey.
Slovenia stands out in this arena, boasting escape room experiences that have been nominated among the world’s best by the prestigious TERPECA ranking. A great part of this success is thanks to the Slovenian Escape Room Association (GIZ ER.SI), whose members collaborate, share best practices, and prove that working together makes everyone better.
🎉 ESCAPE ROOM FESTIVAL: 1–8 OCTOBER 2025
In celebration of World Escape Room Day (October 1), members of GIZ ER.SI are launching a special promotional campaign – the Escape Room Festival, running from October 1 to 8:
