F1 Arcade Set to Open in Denver’s Five Points

DENVER, CO – A new entertainment destination is set to open this week in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood. F1 Arcade, the Formula 1–themed venue combining racing simulators, dining, and nightlife, will officially debut on Wednesday, September 10, near the corner of 28th and Walnut Street.

Adaptive Reuse and Design

The project transforms three conjoined buildings into a 15,700-square-foot venue designed as both a modern sports lounge and a gaming arena. Inside, the layout includes a full commercial kitchen, multiple full-service bars, a variety of dining and lounge spaces, and an outdoor patio. The adaptive reuse approach ties the new entertainment space to the neighborhood’s historic industrial fabric while delivering a high-end, contemporary interior.

A Racing Experience at Scale

At the heart of F1 Arcade are 69 full-motion simulators, giving guests the chance to experience the speed and precision of Formula 1 racing in a social, team-based atmosphere. The technology replicates the feel of competitive racing while making it accessible to all skill levels, from casual visitors to serious fans of the sport.

Food, Beverage, and Events

Beyond racing, the venue offers a complete food and cocktail program, encouraging guests to spend an entire evening inside the space. The design blends dining, nightlife, and gaming into a single destination.

The building also houses a private event room, providing flexible space for corporate gatherings, parties, or larger community events. Together, the amenities position F1 Arcade as more than just a racing venue, but a full-scale entertainment hub.

Opening in Denver

F1 Arcade Denver officially opens on Wednesday, September 10, with reservations now available online. The location is part of a global expansion of the London-based brand, which is bringing its mix of esports-inspired racing and hospitality to major cities around the world.

The Denver opening marks one of the company’s first U.S. venues, and it adds another layer to the city’s growing list of destination entertainment and dining experiences.
