Escape Metalcorner is a rock and metal bar and live venue in Vienna, Austria. It has been part of the city’s heavy music scene since 2003 and is one of the best-known specialist venues for rock and metal in the Austrian capital.
The venue combines a bar with a basement concert space, giving it a dual function within Vienna’s nightlife. Rather than operating only as a pub, Escape also serves as a small live club with a regular programme of concerts and club nights, linking it closely to the local and touring underground circuit.
Escape is associated with a broad heavy music profile that covers both rock and metal rather than a single niche. Its long-running role as a dedicated venue, together with its steady use for club nights and live shows, has made it a recognisable meeting place for Vienna’s rock and metal audience.
