A community of Australian escape room owners sharing knowledge, solving problems, and helping each other succeed.
Escape Room Owners Australia (EROAUS) is a national network dedicated to supporting and uniting escape room owners across the country. We provide a collaborative space for sharing knowledge, solving challenges, and strengthening the industry through connection, advocacy, and best practice. Built by owners who understand the realities of the business, EROAUS exists to help escape rooms succeed together. We've been gathering the community since 2017.
