Kingpinz Social is a family destination with fun packed into every corner! Its engaging attractions include 14 lanes of HyperBowling, a massive arcade, a laser tag arena, 4 escape rooms, and a VR Hologate arena. Your family can spend the day no matter the occasion—from birthday celebrations, family reunions, sports team-building, field trips, and more!
Top it all off with the variety of from-scratch food options, including a full-service restaurant, Baron’s Eatery & Bar, servicing the lanes in addition to the restaurant itself. Kingpinz also has a kid-friendly food truck (a former converted AirStream), Axis Tilt, that serves up nostalgic kid-friendly favorites like snow cones and much more.
Check out what makes Kingpinz a Parent’s Pick in Fargo!
Hyperbowling at Kingpinz
HyperBowling reinvents the way that you think about bowling. HyperBowling is an interactive and unique way to get all skill levels hyped up and having fun! It’s like playing a physical video game on the lane—every ball is different, and every turn brings a new challenge. The interactive environment has changing lights, changing targets and levels, and one single ball can change the winner!
In a nutshell, HyperBowling involves hitting colored lights on the lane bumpers to earn certain multipliers that are then factored in based on the number of pins you hit.
Example: If your ball hits a green light, you earn 3x the points; and you get 3 pins (at 1,000 points per pin), you’ll earn 3,000 points in one frame, versus traditional bowling where 300 points is the max for an entire game.
The scoring and levels increase in fun and, depending on the game, can increase in difficulty (not all games are like this though). Plus, there are a few different ways to play—you can compete against the other teams on different lanes— which is fun for groups of friends and family to compete head-to-head!
Details:
- Max of 6 bowlers per lane
- Fun for all ages
- Great for any group size as lanes can participate together
- Can be booked online—Kingpinz strongly suggests booking ahead here!
Laser Tag at Kingpinz
Inside, you’ll also find two levels and 3,200 square feet of Junkyard-themed fun in their Laser Tag arena. The game is best for groups of 10-12 kids, but Mom and Dad can play too! Laser Tag is first come, first serve—but you can reserve the arena if you’re celebrating your birthday or a large private event at Kingpinz.
Escape Rooms at Kingpinz
With options to every family, Kingpinz has four escape rooms. Three rooms are 60-minute challenges and the other is 30 minutes—great for putting families to the ultimate teamwork test! The Kingpinz team works with their guests, meaning they take into account the age group that enters the escape room to give everyone a fair chance. If a younger group is struggling and needs another clue, they will provide one to help.

Birthday Parties at Kingpinz
No matter the age, Kingpinz will get the entire birthday party moving and having fun. Whether the kids head for the Hyperbowling lanes or the escape rooms, venture into the laser tag arena or throughout the arcade, or even visit the AirStream “food truck,” they’ll love it. Another great part about birthday parties—adults can (and should) get in on the fun too!
