Arcade Monsters has officially taken over 6001 Sunrise Vista Drive in Citrus Heights, purchasing the legendary Sunrise Rollerland for $3.5 million this spring and already deep into renovations. CEO Adrian Ravelo confirmed to What Now Sacramento that the new location is targeting an opening by the end of August or early September, and if his vision is even half of what he described, Citrus Heights is about to have one of the most unique entertainment destinations in California.
“Everything is gonna glow,” Ravelo said. “We’re bringing the best graffiti artists in the world, many from California, some from the East Coast, all over. These are the artists that all other graffiti artists look up to, and they’re all going to have murals in there that glow and are very special.”
The arcade component will feature everything from vintage classics and pinball to Japanese rhythm games, all hand-selected by Ravelo himself. “Only the best of the best,” he said. Walls are being removed to open up the space, making the 26,736-square-foot building feel bigger and less claustrophobic than it did in its previous life. And the historic wooden roller-skating floor, one of the world’s last remaining rotunda rinks and the fourth-largest skating floor on the planet, will be enhanced and preserved.
The Citrus Heights location will be Arcade Monsters’ third in California, following a 28,000-square-foot facility in Murrieta and a location in San Diego. The company, based in Oviedo, Florida, has built a following of nearly 100,000 Instagram followers in a short time by creating immersive, art-driven entertainment spaces where admission covers everything, including the skating rink, with arcade games set to free play.
Sunrise Rollerland was a Citrus Heights institution. Built in 1973 and owned by the Neutz family for over 50 years, it hosted generations of birthday parties, school nights, and community events before Ken and Kathy Neutz retired and closed its doors in March 2026. Their hope was always to sell to someone who would keep the rink alive, and it turns out, Arcade Monsters was exactly that someone.
