Let’s Play: Main Event Makes its way to the Rocket City

Main Event, the Texas-based family-friendly entertainment center, is making its way to Bridge Street Town Centre in late February. 

Taking over what was once Toys R Us, the Main Event entertainment space is a sizable 49,330 square feet. There’s plenty of room for hosting events of all sizes, from groups of 10 up to 1,000. 

From baby’s first birthday party to the annual corporate Christmas party, Main Event encourages fun play over competition, social over solo, and accessible to everyone. They endeavor to stir children’s imaginations and inspire adults to play like kids again.

Twenty-four years ago, the Main Event concept was unique and the first of its kind. Back in 1998, the founders thought that the league-driven, dusty bowling centers of the time were limited in providing a full-range of family-oriented entertainment and activity space. 

They wanted to go beyond bowling and thus created a haven for families to share in a variety of activities all under one roof. 

Main Event Huntsville will feature a broad assortment of enticing entertainment options, such as 22 lanes of state-of-the-art bowling, multi-level laser tag, gravity ropes, a zipline, virtual reality, billiards, and over 120 arcade games. 

Main Event will also serve as an ideal venue for special events, such as birthday parties, holiday festivities, and team building activities. It will feature full-service catering with private party rooms, free Wi-Fi, big screen TVs, and the latest in audiovisual technology. Main Event also can help with event details, send out the invites, and tackle the clean-up afterwards.

There’s also dedicated meeting room space, perfect for workshops, mini retreats, and training sessions. 

This will be Main Event’s very first location in Alabama, and it will feature a full-service dining menu and a bar well-stocked with craft beers and cocktails.

“We couldn’t be more excited about becoming part of the Huntsville community and bringing our unique family entertainment experience to the area,” said Chris Morris, Main Event’s CEO. “Our brand promise is to provide guests an opportunity to make memories together while enjoying the best activities and games imaginable all in the comforts of one fun-filled location. We are committed to doing that every single day. The team at Bayer Properties was instrumental in making this a reality and we are thankful to be working with a top-notch group on our first-ever location in Alabama.”
