Room Escape Artist

Latest update: February 2026

Madrid might not be the first city you think of when planning an escape room trip to Spain, but it is home to some amazing games. Magic Universe is an experience like you won’t find anywhere else. The Madrid market features comedy, joy, wonder, and of course, horror. 

Barcelona is the more well-known Spanish escape room destination city. It’s not exactly nearby, but if you’re doing a multi-city trip, you might want to check out our escape room recommendation guide for Barcelona too.
