Centennial is getting a new way to burn off kid energy on cold days and hot afternoons alike. Launch Family Entertainment has signed a lease to open its first Colorado park at the Yosemite Park Shopping Center, bringing roughly 35,000 square feet of bowling, mini golf, arcade games, and trampolines to the southeast Denver suburbs. The venue will also feature a mixed reality playground plus the brand's in-house KRAVE restaurant and bar. Construction is slated to begin in August, with an early 2027 opening targeted, adding another big indoor option for birthday parties, teen nights, and family outings.
Deal details and timeline
Local outlet What Now reported on June 12 that Launch signed a lease for a Yosemite Park Shopping Center space near County Line Road and Yosemite Street. The report notes that construction is expected to start in August and that the venue could open in early 2027, citing franchise and local reporting. The project marks Launch’s first Colorado location after the brand expanded into multiple regions around the country.
What the park will include
Franchise trade coverage and company materials indicate the roughly 35,350 square foot facility will pack in bowling lanes, an indoor mini golf course, arcade games, multiple trampoline zones, and mixed reality play areas. Franchising.com quotes Launch’s chief development officer saying the Colorado park “marks another step” in the brand’s expansion. The announcement also highlights a KRAVE restaurant and bar that will serve as the park’s on site dining anchor.
Where it will sit
The future park appears in commercial property records as 9090 E. Phillips Place in Centennial, part of the Yosemite Park Shopping Center. The Crexi listing for the site shows a building footprint that closely matches the company’s description, with the property record listing about 35,328 square feet. Crexi holds the parcel and listing details for the center.
Nearby play options
When it opens, Launch will drop into an area that is already building a reputation as a family fun corridor. South Suburban Parks and Recreation operates the Family Sports Center nearby, a multi-use complex with mini golf, arcade games and an ice arena. On top of that, inflatable park operator Bounce Empire is planning a second Denver area location in Centennial, according to Denver7. Taken together, the projects point to steady local demand for year round, all ages activity centers.
Who’s building it
Local entrepreneur Ayush Agarwal is leading the development of the Colorado park and is described in franchise materials as having a background in finance and entrepreneurship. Franchising.com notes that Launch has grown to roughly 30 locations across 15 states, with additional parks planned in markets including Florida, New York, and New Jersey. Agarwal’s franchise agreement tracks with the brand’s strategy of partnering with local operators to expand in mid-sized markets.
Food, jobs and the experience
Launch parks pair their attractions with in-house dining, and the corporate site highlights KRAVE as a menu-driven concept focused on pizza, salads, and ice cream inside many locations. Launch Family Entertainment promotes KRAVE as a key part of its party and group offerings, which typically support dozens of hourly and managerial roles at opening. The owner and leasing teams say the entertainment center is expected to help drive repeat visits and extra foot traffic for the larger shopping center once the doors are open.
Timeline and next steps
Construction is expected to begin in August, and the park is targeting an early 2027 opening, according to local reporting and franchise materials. Company statements from Launch Family Entertainment indicate that more details on hiring and construction permits will follow as work gets underway. What Now has also reported that additional information should surface closer to completion. Coverage will be updated when permits are filed or a grand opening date is announced.
