02 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Main Event packs a whole night out under one roof: bowling, an arcade, laser tag, gravity ropes, VR, billiards, plus a restaurant and bar. The chain describes eight themed escape rooms, from pirates to ghosts, in two formats: a full 60-minute room or a speedy 10-minute mini challenge. Which themes are running in Kentwood isn't published, so ask when you get there. It's a solid pick when the escape room is one stop on a bigger family or friends' night out.

  • Full 60-minute rooms and 10-minute mini games
  • For groups of 2–8
  • Bowling, arcade, laser tag and a bar in the same building
