Fresh Arcade Games
New games arrive constantly, so almost every visit feels different. Skee-ball classics still sit alongside the latest hits. Our technical team targets 99% uptime, because nobody planned a trip around a broken game.
Chuck E. Cheese has invested over $300 million in remodeling its fun centers nationwide — rebuilding the experience kids and parents remember. New games every visit, jumbo video walls, interactive dance floors, Trampoline Zones, Superhero Playgrounds, a brand-new birthday show, Buddy V cakes, fresh pizza recipes, the free Birthday Club, the Summer Fun Pass, our Membership program, and partnerships with Autism Speaks. Birthday parties start at $99.99 for 6 kids. Here’s what you’ll find when you walk through the door today.
A Modern Makeover
Step inside and the first thing you’ll notice is the light. Bright, contemporary spaces. Vivid colors and bold artwork. Updated dining areas designed for families to actually relax in. Open sightlines so you can see your kids from anywhere on the floor.
This isn’t a refresh — it’s a rebuild. Over $300 million invested across our fun centers nationwide, transforming nearly every Chuck E. Cheese in the country into a brighter, livelier, more modern space. Same brand. Different building.

Newer Than Ever
The Arcade Floor, Reimagined
Three things changed everything about the play experience. New games rotating in constantly. A jumbo video wall. And a dance floor that dances back.
Jumbo Video Wall
Wall-to-wall, audio synced throughout the building. KIDZ BOP® music videos, brand-new shows from Chuck E. and friends, plus exclusive content you won’t find anywhere else. Concert energy, every visit.
Interactive Dance Floor
The floor lights up under every step. Icons scatter when kids run through them. Dance battles break out spontaneously. And Chuck E. shows up live every visit to keep the party going.
More Than an Arcade. Adventure Zones.
Active play built into the building. Climb, jump, slide, race, and burn off the kind of energy that arcade games alone can’t.
Trampoline Zone
A dedicated trampoline zone for little kids — sized, padded, and supervised for the 3-to-10 crowd. Built to ASTM F2970 trampoline safety standards. The kind of play kids beg for, in a setting parents trust.
Superhero Playground
Slides, climbing structures, hideouts, and obstacle paths sized for kids who are too big for the play place at the burger chain and too young for the laser-tag arena. Capes optional. Energy required.
Fresh Shows. Live Appearances.
Chuck E. shows up live every visit — and there’s always something new on the video wall.
Brand-new shows starring Chuck E. and the band drop on the jumbo video wall throughout the year. KIDZ BOP® music videos run on rotation, paired perfectly with the interactive dance floor. And the one and only Chuck E. Cheese makes live appearances every single visit, leading dance parties and posing for photos. Entertainment isn’t a sideshow here — it’s the whole point.
Special Events, All Year Long
There’s always something happening on the calendar — seasonal celebrations, themed parties, character meet-and-greets, and the occasional surprise. Halloween brings spooky-but-not-scary takeovers across the country. Summer means special character moments and limited-time menu items. Winter holidays come with their own twist. Watch the events page or join the Birthday Club to know first.
Free to Attend
Most special events are included with regular admission — no extra ticket required.
A Real Pizzeria. Genuinely Better Food.
Hand-stretched dough. Real cheese. Fresh sauce. Made fresh every day. And a Grown-Up Menu, because parents shouldn’t have to settle.
Hand-Stretched, Made Fresh Daily
Real dough, hand-shaped on the counter. Real cheese, real sauce, fresh toppings — reformulated and made fresh in our Ecolab Science Certified kitchens. Stuffed crust, 5-meat, supreme, and rotating limited-time pies. Plus a full Grown-Up Menu: wings, salads, beer and wine where licensed.
Cake by Buddy Valastro, the Cake Boss
Three flavors — Confetti, Rainbow, and Chocolate — designed for the birthday star and the rest of the table. Add one to any party package.
A Better Prize Wall
Completely refreshed — more inventory, more brand-name toys, more options at every ticket level. Smaller wins still feel like wins. Bigger wins still feel earned.
And e-tickets stay in your account between visits, so kids can save up for something real. The thrill of the redemption counter, the way it should be.
Join the Birthday Club
Sign up to get your child’s exclusive birthday reward, plus special offers and surprises delivered straight to your inbox. Free to join — always.
Smarter Ways to Visit Often
If you’re going to come back regularly, you shouldn’t pay full price every time. Two programs do the math for you.
Summer Fun Pass
Unlimited summer visits at one fixed price. Built for the families who’d otherwise be at home asking what they’re going to do today. Available seasonally each year.
Membership
Unlimited visits, included gameplay, exclusive Member events, free birthday upgrades, and member-only menu offers. The way to make Chuck E. Cheese a regular habit, not an occasion.
Giving Back, on Purpose
Chuck E. Cheese has long been a place where every kid feels welcome. The newest chapter is making that work visible — through partnerships with organizations that help kids and families thrive.
Autism Speaks & Sensory Sensitive Sundays
Through our partnership with Autism Speaks and our nationwide Sensory Sensitive Sundays program — the first Sunday of every month at participating fun centers — we make Chuck E. Cheese genuinely accessible to families on the spectrum. Lower lights. Quieter sound. Trained team members. The same fun, with the sensory load dialed back.
Round-up donations at the register go straight to Autism Speaks year-round.
