Race Across the World Live Experience Sets Spring Launch in York

CityDays is rolling out the licensed, puzzle-led race as part of a broader multi-city expansion following runs in London and Manchester.

Overview

  • The York edition is produced by CityDays under license from All3Media International on behalf of Studio Lambert, creator of the BBC series.
  • Teams race across three legs covering roughly 4–5 km in two to three hours, managing a set budget and solving escape-room-style challenges at checkpoints.
  • Route highlights include York’s snickelways and landmarks such as The Shambles, York Minster and Dean’s Park, with partner venues serving as puzzle hubs.
  • Participants can find ticket details and sign-up information on the Race Across the World: The Experience website, with daily and weekly champions recognized.
  • All3Media says six routes are launching across five UK cities in under a year, reflecting strong demand and the format’s adaptability.
