Planning a birthday party in El Centro means finding something that works for everyone: the birthday kid, their friends, the younger siblings and the grown-ups who came along. At Playzone, bowling, laser tag, arcade games and a full kitchen are all under one roof, so nobody is left standing around.
Here’s how to pick a party package, what’s included, and how to book.
Why a bowling party works for every age
- Bowling works for first-timers and experienced bowlers alike, and it keeps the whole group together on the lanes.
- The arcade keeps younger guests busy between frames, with prizes to win.
- Laser tag gives older kids and teens a team game they’ll talk about for weeks.
- Food comes from our kitchen, so pizza, wings and drinks are right there when the group gets hungry.
Pick your party package
Playzone offers three ways to party. Prices are from our online booking system, and final prices are confirmed at checkout.
| Package | Price | What’s included |
|---|---|---|
| Private Party Room | From $150 | Your own space for birthdays, team events and teen parties, in 2-hour time slots |
| The Spare Package | $21 per guest (min. 6) | 2 hours of bowling, 6 shoe rentals, a large pizza and a pitcher of soft drinks |
| The Strike Package | $30 per guest (min. 6) | 2 hours of bowling, 6 shoe rentals, pizza and drinks, party supplies, a balloon bouquet and six $10 arcade cards |
Quick math: a group of 10 on the Spare Package comes to $210 before tax. The Strike Package adds party supplies, balloons and arcade cards, which makes it the easy pick when you want the decorations handled too.

Add food everyone will eat
Party food is where most plans get complicated. Our full menu keeps it simple:
- 16-inch pizzas from $17, including The Hambone and The 900. Cauliflower crust is available on request.
- Wings and boneless by the 6, 12 or 18, tossed in Buffalo, BBQ, Lemon Pepper, Garlic Parmesan or Honey Chipotle.
- The Playzone Sampler ($32) with wings, onion rings, mozzarella sticks, jalapeño poppers and fries, made for sharing.
- Milkshakes and churros for dessert.
If anyone in your group has food allergies, let our staff know before you order. Menu items may contain or come into contact with common allergens.
