Immersive gaming experience and “eatertainment” venue Beat The Bomb will open its seventh U.S. location in Denver’s growing York Street Yards development at 3863 Steele Street on Friday, April 4. Tickets are on sale now. Prices start at $34.95. An early bird discount of 20% off is available with code DENVER20.
Beat The Bomb’s signature attraction is the one-hour Mission Experience, in which four to six players don hazmat suits and progress through four high-tech game rooms with touch screens, motion cameras, projection walls, and lasers. Each room deploys a different game built to test the team’s communication, collaboration, and coordination. As the team advances, they earn time on their Bomb Clock. In the fifth and final Bomb Room, the team must disarm the world’s largest paint, slime, or foam bomb before their clock runs out — or else get blasted! At the end of the mission, players receive free photos and videos of their experience.
“Beat The Bomb is about having an absolute blast with your team, win or lose,” said CEO and founder Alex Patterson in a statement. “We’ve created a totally new and insanely fun experience that brings people together. It’s the kind of adventure that Denverites are going to love.”
At Beat The Bomb, just 10% of teams manage to disarm the bomb on their first try. Winning teams unlock exclusive rewards through Beat The Bomb’s loyalty program, while losing teams may return for a shot at redemption or experience a different Bomb mission. Powered by Beat The Bomb’s patented reprogrammable game room system, players enjoy an ever-evolving selection of immersive challenges.
Beat The Bomb includes a full-service bar, the Bomb Bar, with two giant projection screens that display the most recent teams’ “Bomb Blast” videos, and a 1500-square-foot dining area where customers can enjoy slushies as colorful as the paint blasts, Colorado craft beers, and delicious bites made for sharing, including Bomb chicken wings in six different flavors, loaded fries and tots, pretzel bites, and crispy chicken sandwiches. The dining area is surrounded by four semi-private arcade bays where guests can eat, drink, and enjoy an Arcade Bomb Battle, a 90-minute competitive socializing experience with interactive mini-games.
Beat The Bomb is a popular destination for team building retreats and corporate outings, birthday celebrations, and other special occasions, and includes a 450-square-foot event space along with customizable catering and bar service packages. The company’s current locations host hundreds of team-building events annually for corporations such as Delta, Google, and Amazon. Beat The Bomb also welcomes tens of thousands of students annually from schools, camps, and after-school programs via their ticket donation program aiming to inspire the next generation of creative technologists.
Beat The Bomb’s neighbors at York Street Yards include Cohesion Brewing Company, Skiptown Dog Bar & Park, Elemental Bakery and Cafe, Rivian, Denver Modern, Figment Floral, Stick & Feather, and three gyms.
“We are very excited about bringing Beat The Bomb to Denver and the neighborhood,” said Rebecca Arnold, senior vice president at SKB. “Our vision is to build a place where innovation and community collide—and getting Beat The Bomb to York Street Yards is a big win in realizing that vision.”
Since its bootstrapped launch in Brooklyn in 2017, Beat The Bomb has hosted more than 750,000 customers, and blasted celebrities such as Usher, Venus Williams, Tony Hawk, and the Real Housewives of Atlanta. The Denver location joins Beat The Bomb outposts in Atlanta, Brooklyn, Charlotte, Houston, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., and follows a $15M Series B investment in 2023 by Otium Capital and Conversion Venture Capital.
