Texas Renaissance Festival Escape Rooms

Ticketing is online for pre-paid reservations, or at the door. We recommend booking in advance, as 'prime-time' slots sell out days or weeks ahead of time.

IMPORTANT INFO:

Your entire group will need to arrive no later than 15 minutes before your scheduled time, for introductions and rules. IMPORTANT: If you're late, you will either forfeit your session time (with no refund), or have your time available on the clock reduced.

Three of our excape rooms are for folks 15+ in age. Though the content is not "PG-13," per se, the difficulty level and nature/theme of the puzzle design is constructed for the non-child crowd. Also, at least one paying adult parent or guardian must be in the room with those aged 15-17. IF YOU BOOK ONLINE AND SHOW UP WITH FOLKS YOUNGER THAN 15 THEY WILL NOT BE ADMITTED AND YOU WILL NOT GET A REFUND.

"Pilpo Paggins & the Dwarf Mines" is for ages 10-Adult, but will still require a paid adult in the room with minors. Note that most sessions are public sessions, and you are likely to be grouped with other faire guests.

Also, be as sober as possible—inebriated guests will be asked to leave, with no refunds. Drunk guests who break puzzles/props may incur a $200 charge on their credit cards.

Base cost for the 20-minute Pilpo Baggins adventure is $19.99 per person, and the 30-minute adventures are $29.99 per person, plus tax and fees, 2-person minimum purchase (6 or 8 people max), for the public sessions (where you may be grouped with other guests), and 4-ticket minimum for the "Private Sessions" in the early mornings and early evenings.

You can also add people later in-person at the room if space is available (up to the max 6 or 8).
HEY! Really important: These tickets are a separate admission from the General Admission Festival tickets.
Be SURE you've bought your festival tickets first, to be positive you can get in, and then buy your Escape Adventure tickets!
