F1 Arcade Denver

Sixty-nine full-motion race rigs with a proper bar attached

Opened on September 10, 2025 in 15,000 square feet on Walnut, this was the fourth F1 Arcade in the United States after Boston, Washington and Philadelphia. Sixty-nine full-motion simulators run the real circuits; you can race head to head in threes or in teams of four and up, and the scoring keeps people honest. Food and drink are a full program rather than an afterthought, which is the difference between this and an arcade. It works for a group who would otherwise stand around a bar, and it fills up on Friday and Saturday nights.

Why go. The rare group activity that does not collapse after twenty minutes.

Book the rigs ahead for a weekend night; walk-ins get whatever is left, which is usually not much.
