Our story
Pod Experiences was formed in 2017 by husband and wife team Phil & Philly Harris (the original Ps in the Pod!). The first experience to open was Pier Pressure in 2018, with Paradox Place and Puzzle Parade both launching in 2021. Phil and Philly are the power couple behind the purple who came from very different professional backgrounds. Phil was an experienced events organiser and Philly an academic with a PhD in positive social psychology. They never thought their different worlds would ever join forces, but in setting up Pier Pressure Escape Rooms as a first venture they soon realised that they complemented each other incredibly well and soon wanted to expand to design more experiences.
