Who says a corporate or family gathering has to mean a seated meal in a restaurant? Why not entertain the colleagues and the kids – both children and adults who are still kids at heart, and head over to Nitro Zone for some action-packed holiday fun? Nitro Zone offers all the entertainment your coworkers and relatives can possibly handle, in one building.

If you’re wondering how this could fit into your holiday plans, Nitro Zone has everything you need for competition-driven, and/or team-building corporate celebrations. And families easily spend 3-4 hours here on average. Eliminate the worry of restless youngsters being seated for a traditional, multigenerational holiday gathering.

Nitro Zone Marketing and Sales Specialist, Kendall Lawrence, informed me that there is something for everyone. The kids are entertained, and when the adults are not joining in the bowling, racing and arcade action, they enjoy the full bar and massage chairs; everyone is happy.

Childhood AND Grown Up Christmas List

The smallest party here would be a party of 10. Conversely, a group as large as 500-750 can be amused for an event at this location. If rotating groups of guests throughout the day, a party can be planned here for up to 2000 people. Buyout for a few hours is an option, you would have to speak to one of their party planners for details.

“Quick Trip had an Employee Appreciation picnic here with 2000 people rotating throughout the day. They had face painters, balloon artists, and bouncy houses for the kids outside. FedEx had a formal Christmas party with white tablecloths…and silver ornaments dressing up the room,” recounted Lawrence.

Whether you’re seeking a chance at bragging rights, or your team just enjoys cheering each other on, there are plenty of options at Nitro Zone. “It’s 127,000 square feet of fun,” said Lawrence.

The following activities are sold-by-the-hour options for your event:

• The Nitro Speedway go-kart races take place on a high-speed track with dimmed lights. A state-of-the-art timing system allows you to challenge yourself for your best personal time.
• Bazooka Ball is a cross between paintball, Nerf Guns, and Laser Tag. Participants wear vests, shoot nerf balls at each other, and light-up when they get hit.
• Action Zone includes a Ninja Course, Rope Course, and a Trampoline Park. It’s wall-to-wall trampolines. “Picture a game of Trampoline Dodgeball where you can hit your boss in the face and not get in trouble for it,” chuckled Lawrence. Bounce and flip into the Foam Pits, or try your hand at a jousting match on a balance beam.
• Near Stacks Bar and Grill you’ll find Bowling – 14 lanes worth, with interactive touch screens, and Billiards (pool tables) with 24 televisions dedicated to sports.
• Arcade video games with the hottest new games and latest technology. “The most popular arcade game is basketball. Everyone loves to show off who’s the best.”

How About a Holiday Party at Nitro Zone?

From a cocktail hour at the bar with the availability of an additional satellite bar if you wish, to any type of food set-up you’d like for your holiday bash, Nitro Zone’s sales team, and event coordinators will make sure the right amount of staff is on-site to make your vision a reality.

Food options vary and depend on the nature of the event you are planning. “We can provide foods like pizza, wings, tacos, and burgers in-house. You may want to have a burger bar, or a taco bar set-up,” related Lawrence.

For something more upscale they have a preferred caterer from the Norcross/Tucker area. Their party planners have worked with Moe’s, a favorite barbecue place, and Buca di Beppo. Any type of food and service you’d like is possible, as long as you give them enough time to plan accordingly.

In the same manner, any food restrictions you may have can be addressed if they are given proper notice. Lawrence explained, “I can contact our food rep. I ordered kosher wings for a birthday party recently. If we need to outsource something, we’ll make sure we do everything we can for the customer.” They do have vegetarian options: veggie burger, fries, loaded nachos with no meat. They have a veggie stack, a vegan option, as well as gluten-free options, and dairy-free cheese.

As for desserts, they have cookies in-house, and they are happy to order any desserts you may need. Usually, people bring their own cakes, but they can order those too, if you wish.

Wine, beer, and liquor is available for your party, and you can rent 8-10 tables of 10-12 to set up down the hallway. For larger parties, they offer a buffet style meal with chafing dishes to keep food warm.

Book it!

If you’re planning to have a grand, extravagant event at Nitro Zone, you should look into booking two months ahead. For a typical holiday party, a month in advance is advisable, although they’ve booked socials in as little as two days and even 20 minutes.
