Within the next few weeks, US operator Scene75 Entertainment will welcome the public to its newest and largest location, a 225,000sq.ft indoor family entertainment centre at the Mall at Tuttle Crossing in Columbus, Ohio.
Scene75, a family owned and operated brand with four other entertainment centres across Ohio and Pennsylvania, is nearing completion of a one year construction process, converting a former Macy’s into what is billed as the largest FEC in the country.
Scene75 Columbus expects to attract more than 400,000 visitors per year. It will feature 19 different attractions including an indoor roller coaster, indoor go-karts, a two-storey laser tag arena, more than 200 arcade games, a 36ft tall drop tower, motion simulators, next-generation batting cages, an inflata-park, blacklight miniature golf, bumper cars, escape rooms, karaoke, archery tag and more.
The facility will also include Illusions Restaurant and Bar, a magic-themed full-service restaurant, as well as two other bars. Additionally, nine private party rooms will be on site for birthday parties, groups and company events, as well as a full-service banquet venue capable of seating as many as 500 guests within a single setting.
Founded in 2012 by father and son Les and Jonah Sandler, Scene75 Entertainment has firmly established itself at the fore of the operating industry, having won many accolades, including being named the top family entertainment centre in North America in 2016.
“My team and I are extremely excited about our location at Tuttle Mall,” said CEO Jonah Sandler. “I have been in the entertainment industry for more than a decade now. However, I have yet to see a venue anywhere in the country, including our four other award-winning locations, that rivals what we are bringing to Columbus. It is first-class all the way around and is truly going to be special.”
