147,791 square feet. An arcade, a gym with 160 feet of climbing wall, 28 feet tall, a kitchen, and a music room with the stage in the middle.
One roof, one door, one card. Every hour of the week belongs to a different room.
Every bay has its own couches, its own arcade machine and its own TV you can program. Four sizes, because a date and a birthday party are not the same night.
Prices are what we're planning, not what's on sale — nothing is bookable yet. A bay is a separate thing from admission, the same way a booth is at any Salt Lake club.
There is nowhere else in Utah where that sentence is true, and it isn't a slogan — it's a licence. Utah will not license an all-ages room with a bar in it. It will license a beer retailer built on top of an arcade, and that rule admits minors.
So the arcade isn't decoration around the music. The arcade is the reason a fifteen-year-old and their dad can be in the same building at nine at night, one of them with a drink.
One way in. A single controlled entry with the card reader in the sequence, so every visit is counted and nobody is guessing at attendance.
I get tired of hearing "be realistic."
There is home, there is work, and there is supposed to be a third place — somewhere you can be for six hours without anyone asking you to leave. Utah lost most of them. What's left closes at nine, or costs forty dollars an hour, or won't let your kid in.
So: a room you can sit in for free, machines that cost money because they always have, a band on Friday that keeps seventy percent of the door, a climbing wall, a basketball court, and somewhere to get a burger at eleven at night in West Valley City.
Fifteen minutes from downtown Salt Lake. Off 5400 South near Bangerter Highway. 26 acres, and parking is not going to be the problem.
Opening 2027. Nothing is open yet — the building is real, the lease is not signed, and everything on this page is what is being built, not what exists today. That is the honest version and you'd find out anyway.
The plan for hours: open every day, late on Friday and Saturday, all ages all the time, 21+ only in the room behind the wall.
Playing costs money. It runs on a card — no coins, no tokens, no change machines. Sitting down doesn't cost anything.
Tell me who you are and I'll tell you when the doors open. If you're in a band, say so — bookings open before the public list does.
No newsletter. No partners. One email when there is a date.
No. The machines take money — it's a card reader, you load a card and swipe. What's free is being in the building. You can sit on a couch, watch a set, use the tables and not spend anything.
Yes, all of it except the 21+ room behind the wall. That's the whole point of building it this way.
No. It's auto-belay only, which means the rope catches you by itself. No certification, no belay test, no partner.
A private booth in the music room, with couches, its own arcade machines and a TV you can program. You book it for the night. It's separate from admission.
Not yet, but get on the list and say you're an artist. 50% of the door goes to the performer, plus a facility fee that's disclosed separately and never comes out of your share.
No. Opening is targeted for 2027 and the building is still being fitted out. Nothing on this page is bookable.
No. It's an arcade that hosts live music, all ages, with a kitchen (Tacos Lopez) and a gym in it.
