Revamped ‘supersize’ gaming destination is now open

Leeds-based entertaint brand Roxy Ball Room has reopened its doors to reveal a “supersized gaming utopia” spanning three floors.

The revamped venue still focuses heavily on the ball games, food, and drink that the brand has become well known for, whilst unveiling some new options.

Former sister venue Roxy Arcade has been completely ripped out and refitted to create a mammoth gamer’s paradise with its spacious basement area.

A diverse range of entertainment will be available here, along with a bar area.

This includes an all-new Crazy Pool course. Players must navigate a variety of obstacles to pot the ball on a waist-high mini-golf course bathed in UV light, using a pool cue instead of a putter.

The basement features two newly installed Duckpin Bowling Lanes, where players can flaunt their competitive streak with a game that splices ten-pin bowling with skittles.

Another game to make its Leeds debut is Bank Shot Shuffleboard, which twists the popular game with a board that loops back on itself, making it even more challenging to get the puck into the scoring zone.

Also new to Roxy Ball Room are three hi-tech private karaoke rooms and a selection of arcade machines.

The ground floor bar now features five beer pong tables, whilst the first floor boasts four full-size American pool tables, two shuffleboards, two beer pong tables and two more ping pong tables.

Roxy has joined forces with neighbouring bars including Mojo, Verve and Yard & Coop to create the city’s biggest outdoor hospitality area.

A roof spanning the full street ensures guests are kept both safe and sheltered from the elements, whilst DJs are on hand with a diverse party playlist to suit the highly anticipated return of the city’s nightlife.

Roxy Brand development manager, Joel Mitchell, said: “We are all extremely excited about taking our Merrion Street venue to another level.

“The people of Leeds are long overdue for a big night out on the town. Roxy Ball Room is coming back in a big way to help create memories that can make up for all those special occasions that we’ve all missed out on.

“I’m looking forward to seeing some familiar faces, from our loyal customers to co-workers and friends from our neighbouring bars.

“I’m confident the people of Leeds are going to love our new-look, supersized venue when it finally reopens, and I know jaws will drop when they check out the new basement bar and see the massive selection of gaming that is now on offer.”
