Should I make reservations for attractions and the restaurant? Down
Attraction reservations are not required but recommended to make the most of your Apex experience. This is particularly true on weekends, holidays, and during school vacations; these are our busiest times and time slots can fill up quickly.

Reservations must be made online at least 24 hours in advance — same-day reservations are not available. We don’t take reservations over the phone.

Our sit-down restaurant is first come, first served. No reservations are necessary.
Is there a dress code? Down
There’s no specific dress code. However, closed-toed shoes are required for some attractions like go-karts or the ropes course. Sneakers are recommended, but not necessary.
Do your attractions have height or weight restrictions? Down
Yes. Weight and height restrictions for each attraction can be found here on our site in the information for each attraction.
Is there an age requirement for go-karts? Down
Yes. You must be 16 years or older with a valid driver’s permit or license. A school ID does not count as a valid form of identification.
Can I ride with another person in the go-karts? Down
No. All our go-karts are designed for single riders.
Where is the best place to park? Down
There is parking in front of the building and in the two-level parking garage to the left of the parking lot. Please be aware that there is increased traffic on the weekends and holidays. Please allow yourself extra time to park when you have made reservations.
Do you offer group discounts? Down
We do not offer group discounts. We can, however, make arrangements for special private parties or corporate events with options you select. Contact our sales team to learn more about these kinds of events.
Do you offer a military discount? Down
We proudly offer a 15% discount on all Apex attractions for active duty members of the military. On Mondays, our “Military Monday” also includes “buy one, get one free” whole pizzas, $2.00 select beers, and the above-mentioned 15% discounts. All other days, offer not valid toward food, beverage, Fun Passes, online reservations or events.

Absolutely. Gift cards in denominations you choose can be purchased onsite at any location. These cards can be used at any Apex location.

Parties and Events at Apex

What is included in the birthday parties? Down
Our sales team can clarify all your party details, but there are some consistent guidelines.

All parties include your selected attractions, use of a private party area for 45 minutes, and the food or beverages that you choose. The party package also includes Apex-themed paper goods (tablecloth, plates, cups, and napkins). We also typically have a birthday decoration on the table.

If you have your own themed plates/napkins, please pass them along to your host at the very beginning of your party.
Can I decorate the party room if we have one? Down
We offer Apex-themed tablecloths, plates, cups and napkins. You’ll only have access to the party area for 45 minutes, and you can’t access it either before or afterwards. As such, we ask you to limit decorations to small items like a centerpiece or balloons.

NOTE: Our Virginia Beach location has specific rules on decorations. Please consult with your sales rep for specifics.
Can I bring my own food or beverages? Down
Store-bought cakes or cupcakes for birthday parties are the only outside food allowed. Additionally, these cakes must be nut free and have a printed list of their ingredients. Homemade cakes and cupcakes are not allowed.
Can parents participate in the birthday party activities and attractions? Down
Yes, but we ask that you include any participating parents in your guest count so we can staff accordingly.
What should parents of guests do during the party? Down
If children attending the party are 8 or older, we encourage their parents to enjoy the rest of Apex while the children enjoy the party with their friends.

If children are under 8, we ask for one parent to stay with their child.
My party will have lots of adults. How should I account for them? Down
We set up and charge for the attending children along with one or two supervising adults as the paid guests. Rooms are assigned based on the number of children with a few extra chairs available in each room. If you need to guarantee seating space, activities, and food for adults in the party or unanticipated guests, you will need to include them in the party package.
Am I able to add extra guests on the day of the party? Down
We can often add one or two unanticipated guests on the day of the party, but due to staffing requirements we cannot add any guests beyond that. Decisions on additional guests are based on availability and at the discretion of the local Apex team.
How should we account for younger siblings? Down
There is no extra charge for infants and toddlers at a party. However, these children must be accompanied at all times by an adult. Children older than toddlers should be included in your paid guest list.
When should we check in for the party? Down
We ask that you arrive no earlier than five minutes before your event’s scheduled starting time.
Can we add food for adults to our party plan? Down
Absolutely. We actually encourage extra adults for parties with children under age 8. Adding food for those adults can be arranged and is always appreciated by those parents. For parents attending the event for children over age 8, adults are welcome to take a table in our restaurant and order food and drinks during the party.
What is the difference between a Redemption and a Non-Redemption arcade card? Down
Redemption arcade cards will earn tickets that can be redeemed for prizes. Non redemption arcade cards will not earn tickets.
