GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas — Feeling a little like life is in the slow lane? Well, a new entertainment complex is opening in Grand Prairie that might help to kick things into the next gear.
Andretti's Indoor Karting and Games is opening on July 10 at 3750 S. Highway 161. This is the second location to open in North Texas. The first one opened back in 2020 in The Colony.
“We are thrilled to bring the joy of Andretti Indoor Karting & Games to the community of Grand Prairie this summer,” said Collette Shillcutt, general manager of the Grand Prairie Andretti location in a statement. “We know the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is bustling with families, some recently having moved to the area, and are seeking a way to connect and create memories and fun. We can’t wait to welcome in the community to show them our new entertainment center and give them the world-class Andretti experience.”
The 92,000-square-foot entertainment complex offers high-speed electric karts on a multi-level track. But it has more than that if racing isn't your thing. There are also arcade games, Hologate and Hyperdeck virtual reality experiences, bowling, a motion theater and a two-story laser tag arena.
Along with all of those options, Andretti's features a full-service restaurant with numerous dining options, a brick oven pizza, as well as three full bars and a patio area.
Andretti's is giving away invites to sneak preview events on its website. There will also be giveaways on opening day and opening weekend. The first 50 guests on July 10 will get a free Andretti-branded YETI tumbler. The first 100 guests will also be entered into a raffle for the chance to win a free birthday party.
And on Saturday, July 13, the first 100 guests have the chance to win a free hour of arcade play during a future visit.
Andretti's already has plans for a third North Texas location to open in Fort Worth later this year. For more information, visit Andretti's website here.
