Transform Every Celebration into an Unforgettable Experience!
Create cherished moments with effortless party planning.

Because Celebrations Should Feel Joyful — Not Stressful
Celebrations matter.
They’re the moments kids remember, the memories families talk about, and the time you don’t get back.
But too often, planning a party feels overwhelming:
Too much to coordinate
Kids distracted or bored
Parents managing chaos instead of enjoying the moment
The real risk isn’t a party that goes wrong — it’s missing the joy while trying to make it perfect.
Built by parents.
Designed FOR connection.
Celebrate!

Additional Information
Please note you can always purchase additional token packages if your party would like more tokens.
You may reserve a time before we open or after we close to make it a private party (recommended) any day of the week. You may also pay to buy us out for your party during normal business hours Sunday through Thursday for an extra $200 on top of any party package, and an extra $300 for Fridays & Saturdays.
You may extend your party an extra hour by buying an additional party token package OR if you want to do something besides claw machines and just extend the time, you can pay for our hour extension add-on ($130).
You may decorate before the party starts and/or bring food/cake. We offer a complimentary 20-minute decoration set-up time upon request. Please note that any additional decoration time will cut into the hour. It may be smarter to purchase the hour extension add-on if there is an elaborate decoration setup.
If you decide to bring food, we ask that the party plays first so the machines don’t get dirty and the arcade stays clean. We also request that you throw any food/beverage away that you don’t take with you into our provided party waste bin.
The maximum guest count is 49 (fire code). If over 12 guests are playing, we will need to add an additional (third) party host ($60 add-on charge) to ensure the party runs smoothly.
