PARTIES & EVENTS FAQs

Absolutely! We just ask that it is store-bought and not ice cream or an ice cream cake. For adults, we also offer delicious dessert choices that can be added to your birthday package.

The birthday honoree receives tickets or extra game play on their game card depending on the package purchased. We will provide plates, napkins, silverware and all utensils needed for your cake-cutting and serving, should you wish to bring one with you.

Decorations are allowed, but please no confetti, glitter, silly string or candles (other than for the cake).

The games in the Million Dollar Midway require a Power Card with electronic chips to play. When you buy or recharge a Power Card, the chips are loaded onto it. The duration of Power Cards varies depending on the skill of the player and the games played. A general idea is:

$10 Power Card = approximately 30 minutes of game play
$15 Power Card = approximately 45 minutes of game play
$20 Power Card = approximately 60 minutes of game play

For just $5 more per Guest, you can add Unlimited Video Game Play which will give your Guests unlimited play on our non-redemption games. You may also SuperCharge your Power Cards and get 25% more chips!

Book Online Now or Contact a Planner and they'll put together a contract for you. After reviewing it, just sign and return the contract along with a 50% non-refundable deposit. We accept payment by credit card or cash. Then, invite your Guests and we'll do the rest.

In most cases, as a courtesy to you we can hold event space for 72 hours after booking, depending upon event date. This gives you time to solidify the details of your event. After 72 hours, a deposit is required to guarantee space for the day of your event. Contact your local representative for details on courtesy holds based on your specific event date.

When booking a special event, we require a final headcount five (5) business days prior to your event. You'll be charged for this final count or the number of Guests in actual attendance, whichever is higher. Encourage your Guests to RSVP and show up for the fun!

Seating is guaranteed for the numbers of Guests on the contract. If your guest count increases beyond the capacity of the assigned event area, other options are subject to availability and are not guaranteed.

Power Taps^™ are a fun new way to play Dave & Buster's games! They can be used exactly like a Power Card® to activate a game or to redeem tickets for prizes — except that they take the form of a wand, a lanyard or a wristband! To activate a game, just tap your Power Tap on the screen of the game, unlike a Power Card which must be inserted into the swipe.

Kids' birthday parties are booked for two hours; however, after your scheduled event time ends, you are welcome to stay and play games in the Million Dollar Midway for as long as you like. Each location does offer set hours for kids' birthday parties.

A minimum of 10 guests are required for the Home Run or Touchdown packages. A minimum of 15 guests are required for the Celebrations or Ultimate B-day buffet packages. Maximum seating capacity varies by location. Locations also require a revenue minimum requirement depending upon location and time of event.

Seating is provided based on kids’ birthday package count plus chaperone requirement. Additional adult seating requires food service. For adults attending, you can add them to your selected package or allow them to order off the regular restaurant menu.
