  • We welcome adults who wish to drop their children off, but ask that those staying for the party purchase a ticket whether or not they enter the gallery floor.

  • Please arrive no sooner than 15 minutes before your party to drop off any party items.

We had our son’s 9th birthday party here a couple of weeks ago. And it was a big success! All the children loved the videogames and enjoyed the party area. And the staff members were extremely accommodating! Thank you.
