2. Day of the Event: You can add guests on-site, up to a total of 20 or more guests. Please remember that for every guest added on-site, you pay the full price of $40 / person (instead of $36 if you book online). So, we encourage you to book online for the entire group.

We’re here to ensure your event runs smoothly and everyone has a blast!

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your game time. If you are more than 15 minutes late, we reserve the right to shorten your game time in the arena because there are groups before and after your show and everything is run on a tight schedule. If you are more than 30 minutes late, we reserve the right to cancel your experience with no refund or rescheduling.

We recommend the experience for ages 10 and up to get the most out of it. However, we’re flexible—especially if younger players are joining with older family members or adults.

Note: Players 15 and under should be accompanied by an adult.
This way, everyone can enjoy the fun, competitive atmosphere of Game Show Duels!

If a timeslot shows “Waitlist” or “Full”, it means the slot has been booked and is currently unavailable. Here’s how the waitlist works:

• For timeslots marked “Waitlist”, you can submit your information to join.
• If the slot becomes available (due to a cancellation or reschedule), you’ll
receive an email notification immediately.
• Each timeslot allows up to three waitlist submissions. Once all three slots are filled, the waitlist is closed, and no additional submissions can be made.

This ensures a fair process for everyone looking to book their game show experience!

Yes! Your game show experience will be completely private, with just the group you bring.
Every show includes:
• One dedicated game show host to lead the fun.
• One producer/co-host to assist and ensure your experience is amazing.
This setup guarantees an engaging, personalized, and unforgettable time for your group!

• For groups of 19 or fewer people, the typical game show experience lasts one hour in the game show arena.
• For groups of 20 or more people, you’ll get an extra 15 minutes, making the total playtime 75 minutes.
• Teams will rotate between being contestants and audience members.
Important Notes:
• If your original booking is for 19 people or fewer, but you show up with more than 18 people on the day of the show, you may not receive the full 75-minute experience.
• To extend to the 75-minute experience for a group of 19 or fewer, you must notify the manager at least one week in advance, confirm the changes, and pay for the extra guests.
• Scheduling availability is subject to confirmation, and any changes should be planned ahead for smooth operations.
We appreciate your understanding as these adjustments help us maintain a seamless experience for everyone!
