Big Comeback for Laser Bounce Family Fun Center in Glendale
After months of lockdowns, the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center in Glendale is finally back — and so are the sounds of laughter, arcade buzz, and bouncing feet. Located inside The Shops at Atlas Park, the centre officially reopened at 25% capacity, drawing excited families from across Queens.
Even though the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is operating under restrictions, its return marks a positive step for local entertainment businesses. Parents, kids, and even the owners themselves were eager to see the doors swing open again.
Families Celebrate Birthdays at Laser Bounce Family Fun Center
One of the first parties back at the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center was for James O’Malley, who turned 11 on opening day. With laser tag, bouncing zones, and arcade games back in action, the venue offered a perfect place for celebration.
For James’ mother, avoiding the drive to Long Island’s other location of Laser Bounce Family Fun Center was a huge relief. “This is so exciting,” she said. “We love it here, and it’s great to have this fun so close to home.”
Owners Optimistic Despite Financial Challenges
Co-owner Randy Wasserman admitted that the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center won’t be making a profit at 25% capacity. The real gains, he says, only happen at 75% to 100%, but staying closed simply wasn’t an option.
Wasserman added that keeping the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center closed too long might give people the wrong impression — that the business had shut down permanently. “If you don’t reopen, people think you’re out of business,” he explained.
Safety and Tech Upgrades at Laser Bounce Family Fun Center
Guests at the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center will notice some important updates. There’s a new mobile payment option using Google Pay, reducing wait times and the need to touch shared surfaces.
Cleanliness is also a top priority at the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center. Staff frequently disinfect high-touch areas to ensure a safe environment for everyone coming back to enjoy arcade games and attractions.
Kids Get Their Fun Back at Laser Bounce Family Fun Center
For many parents, the reopening of the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is more than just a weekend plan — it’s a chance for their kids to be kids again. After a year of isolation, getting out of the house and back into a familiar play space is a big deal.
The Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is once again filled with laughter, excitement, and that sense of normalcy families have been craving. It’s not just about playing games — it’s about reconnecting and feeling free again.
Attractions Up and Running at Laser Bounce Family Fun Center
The Laser Bounce Family Fun Center has all its fan-favourite features running again. From basketball arcade machines and racing games to a full bouncing zone and laser tag area, there’s something for every kid to enjoy.
And of course, the prize counter at the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is back. With ticket bundles starting at just 250 for a toy car, the fun of collecting and redeeming tickets has returned in full swing.
Local Support Pours in for Laser Bounce Family Fun Center
On reopening day, families like James and his 5-year-old son Jackson showed up early to support the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center. They’d been regular visitors before the shutdown and couldn’t wait to return.
James said the staff at the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center were just as excited as the guests. “We wanted to be here to support the guys,” he said. “They’re just as thrilled to open as we are to be back.”
More to Come for Shops at Atlas Park
The reopening of the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is just the beginning. The Regal movie theatre, another major draw at The Shops at Atlas Park, is set to reopen on April 16, bringing even more foot traffic to the area.
With the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center already welcoming back families, other entertainment venues — including summer camps and outdoor amusement parks — are gearing up for a full return in the months ahead.
Final Thoughts: The Bounce Is Back
There’s no question — the Laser Bounce Family Fun Center is an essential space for local families. Even at limited capacity, the joy it brings to kids (and relief it brings to parents) can’t be overstated.
