CityDays has announced plans to launch the first-ever playable experience based on the hit BBC series, Race Across the World with Race Across the World: The Experience, which is set to launch in London this Spring. Pre-sale tickets for the experience will be available at 10am on Wednesday 2nd April, with a general sale following on Friday 4th April 2025. Tickets are priced from £25 per person.

 

This high-stakes experience will offer players the chance to live out their Race Across the World dreams by navigating the streets of London, working as a team, outwitting their competitors, and unlocking hidden secrets of the city in a race to the finish line.

 

The experience will require strategy, teamwork, and quick thinking, as players are given a budget to manage as they race through the city. This budget can be spent on valuable clues to help navigate the next leg of the journey, giving players the freedom to decide how daring they want to be. Players can also complete “work” tasks to earn extra funds.



A high-stakes race against the clock, where every decision counts, and influences the race. Players will be scored based on their time and how much budget they have left, with their final score ranked on a live leaderboard throughout the day and week. The team that completes the challenge in the fastest time with the most budget remaining will earn a shot at being crowned the daily or weekly champions.


The race takes participants on a 4-5 km mission through the capital, typically spanning 2-3 hours. Like Race Across The World, this experience highlights the treasures people miss when speeding beneath London on the tube. Passing through key partner venues, including renowned pubs, cultural hotspots, or famous landmarks, each serving as a 'checkpoint' where teams must solve escape room-style puzzles. These puzzles will guide them toward the next leg of the race, offering clues that unveil new parts of the city, all while providing a true taste of London’s hidden gems.


Those who sign up for the waitlist can access discounted presale tickets from Wednesday 2 April, with 20% off and 48 hours of exclusive booking before the general release on Friday 4 April. Tickets are priced from £25 per person.
