The Game Preserve sells daily passes and even monthly memberships so you can enjoy hours and hours of play without having to keep feeding the machine.

Main Event

Main Event is the coolest birthday spot in town. If it isn’t your birthday, why not pretend it is? Main Event has a host of arcade games, events, and food. Bowl, shoot some hoops, or stick to retro games while enjoying a lime green Shirley Temple and a decadent Campfire S’Mores Skillet. They even offer virtual events you can enjoy with friends and family who are far away. Even better, book a trivia night or virtual escape room for a unique socially distance experience.

Bowlero
