    Unique & Clever!

    Each step was a unique challenge that was tricker than expected (in a good way)! There were fun twists and the clues were helpful without giving it away. We had a great time!

    Variety is the spic of Life

    Was looking for something different to do instead of the typical tours to see the city. I decided to try the outdoor escape room in Nashville. It was the best decision I made on the trip. Me and my wife had a lot fun trying to solve the mystery while sightseeing the city. It is a challenge but as you answer the questions and advance in the game it gets more and more rewarding. We really enjoyed the adventure. The cost is very fair and you can play at your own pace. The more people involved the better as there are so many hidden gems that one or two people may have difficulty locating. It took us several hours which we didn’t even realize because we were so into the game. Now when I travel I’m looking to see if Escapely is available on my next destination.

    Smashville Fun

    We loved the entire experience, only one puzzle was a bit confusing to us and we were able to figure out the rest with no help.

    Highly recommend!

    This was a very fun and deliciously challenging puzzle game! We loved being able to walk in our own city and discover areas we hadn’t been before or even look at familiar places in a different light. The interactive pieces inside the box were a very nice element, keeping it from being a smartphone only game. We wished that the story fit our vibe/culture of our city (Nashville) but that didn’t take anything away from the great experience we had and would highly recommend!

The best outdoor escape room experience in Nashville, TN

Outdoor Escape Room Nashville

This outdoor escape room adventure around downtown Nashville takes the best parts of an escape room and the best parts of a scavenger hunt and merges them into the most fun thing to do in Nashville. You get to search for clues hidden in the real world and then use them to solve escape room puzzles. When you solve for a code, the app will tell you where to go look for your next clue! Instead of trying to escape the room, this Escapely adventure takes you around Nashville to track down clues and crack the case!

This real world escape room is the most unique escape room in Nashville. It takes you on a clue-solving adventure to find clues, solve puzzles, and follow an immersive storyline. If you want to keep the experience a surprise, don't read this next bit - it contains some spoilers about where you'll go on Escapely's downtown Nashville escape room adventure and what you'll see along the way.

In Escapely's Nashville escape room, you're a detective tasked with solving a mysterious murder. You must find clues and track suspects around music city. (The clues are in the real world, but the suspects are on our app.) You start off in search of your first clue at Nashville Public Square Park, right in front of the Courthouse. Next, head to Printer's Alley, named for the publishers and printing companies it used to house. Nowadays, the area is home to Nashville's thriving bar and nightclub scene.

The middle part of the escape room game will take you to explore Broadway, the backbone of Music City. If it's evening, stick around to check out the honkey tonks and live country music found in downtown Nashville! Your next clue is in the Walk of Fame Park, which is a tribute to all of the incredible musicians and performers who have contributed their art to the world. And of course, no Nashville outdoor escape room would be complete without a visit to the Ryman, one of the world's most famous concert halls. We suggest working the final puzzle at Assembly Food Hall on 5055 Broadway, or choose any place nearby that you prefer.

Teams hunt for clues, solve puzzles, crack codes, and tackle challenges to win the game and escape. It’s a themed puzzle experience that will get you out of the house for an exciting adventure! This outdoor escape room combines the best elements of an escape room with a fun scavenger hunt experience around Downtown Nashville.

Yes, but it is not generally recommended unless you are a serious escape room enthusiast. It would be like playing an escape room that has the same storyline and similar puzzles, but with different clues available. Because the clues are integrated within Nashville, the clues are different than all other Whodunnit games. But the puzzles will feel familiar.
Downtown Nashville is one of the most vibrant and exciting neighborhoods in all of the US. Whether you love country music or not, it's a bucket-list city with great weather, amazing people watching, and live music. Broadway is the Heart of the neighborhood and serves as the backbone of our Nashville escape room. There are too many bars, nightclubs, and music venues to count, alongside restaurants of all kinds. The Country Music Hall of Fame is also in the area and certainly worth a visit.
It's both! In a traditional escape room you must solve puzzles that lead from one to the next to escape the room (or a series of rooms). In Escape the City you must solve puzzles that lead from one to the next, with clues in the real world. It's one of the best things to do in Nashville!
Downtown Nashville is extremely busy - and for good reason. On weekends, streets are often blocked for concerts or to simply turn Broadway into a pedestrian street for safety. If driving, you can park anywhere in or near downtown, but public transportation or ride share is a better bet.
All clues in our Nashville escape room are outdoors and publicly accessible.
It's a self-guided adventure around downtown Nashville for couples, families, individuals, friend groups, and anyone else looking for a fun thing to do in Music City.
