Packs will be handed out from 259 Collins Street once the hunts return.
In short: Escape This Melbourne CBD at 259 Collins Street, Melbourne, is one of five starting points for the Packhunt return in mid-2027. Victoria’s first confirmed Packhunt base, with its routes still to be revealed. Games, prices and team sizes haven’t been announced.
Trams run along Collins Street and Flinders Street Station is a few blocks away, so most teams should reach the Melbourne collection point without a car.

No. Packhunts are not running at the moment, and the old Packhunt booking pages aren’t taking sessions. Escape This has confirmed the hunts return in mid-2027; until then, its indoor escape rooms are the nearest thing to a Packhunt.
Escape This says Packhunts return in mid-2027, across all of its cities. No exact launch day has been set, so keep an eye on this site or join the Escape This coming-soon list to hear when Packhunt bookings open.
Packhunts are set to return from all five current Escape This centres: Perth CBD and Northbridge in Western Australia, Manly and the Sydney CBD in New South Wales, and Melbourne CBD in Victoria. Each centre is expected to be a starting point; individual Packhunt routes haven’t been released.
The booking method for the 2027 Packhunts hasn’t been announced. To hear first, register on the Escape This coming-soon page, or call your nearest Escape This centre on the number listed on this site’s Packhunt start-point pages.
Melbourne is on the list for the mid-2027 Packhunt return, starting from Escape This Melbourne CBD at 259 Collins Street. The former Packhunt site only described Melbourne hunts as coming soon, so 2027 is the first confirmed date for Packhunts in Victoria.
That was part of the idea from the start: because Packhunts left from Escape This centres, teams were encouraged to book an escape room before or after their hunt. With the return using the same five centres, pairing a Packhunt with a room should be simple again, although no bundles have been announced.
Packhunts were previously sold for team building, staff rewards and end-of-year functions, with large groups divided into teams that raced on separate routes to a shared finish. Corporate Packhunt options for 2027 haven’t been announced; for team building now, Escape This runs Team Escapes across its venues.
Join the Escape This coming-soon list and you’ll be told about the games, the routes and the day Packhunt bookings open.
