🏆 SEASON OVER. GAME ON.
The final whistle has blown. The jerseys are headed for the laundry. The coaches can finally stop yelling from the sidelines.
But just because the season is over doesn't mean the team is done having fun.
It's time to celebrate the season at WhirlyBall!
Win, lose, or somewhere in between, every team deserves one last get-together filled with laughs, friendly competition, great food, and memories that have absolutely nothing to do with the scoreboard.
🏑 Trade the field for the WhirlyBall court.
🔫 Turn teammates into rivals in Laser Tag.
🎳 Settle the score on the bowling lanes.
🍕 Refuel with great food and plenty of team bonding.
No drills. No practice. No coach telling you to run another lap.
Just your team, having a ridiculously good time together.
So round up the players, coaches, and families and give your fall sports season the send-off it deserves.
The season ends. The fun doesn't.
🎉 Book your end-of-season team celebration at WhirlyBall!
EAT. DRINK. GAME ON.

FOOD WORTH PLAYING FOR. 🍔🍕🏑
Look, we know you came for the games. But don't be surprised if the food steals the show.
At WhirlyBall, our kitchen doesn't play around.
We're talking chef-driven, scratch-made food that's a whole lot more than your typical entertainment venue fare. From juicy burgers and crispy wings to handcrafted pizzas and shareable favorites, we're serving up serious flavor to go with all that friendly competition.
Because we believe what's happening in the kitchen should be just as exciting as what's happening on the court.
Come for the competition. Stay for another round of appetizers. And maybe start planning your next visit before you've even finished eating.
EAT. DRINK. GAME ON.

PATIO SEASON IS HERE! (While it lasts.) 🍂🔥
You know that magical time of year when it's cool enough to sit outside, warm enough to enjoy it, and everyone in Chicago knows we've got about 11 minutes before winter shows up?
Yeah. THAT time.
It's the perfect excuse to get your crew together at WhirlyBall!
Book your next group event and add on our awesome outdoor terrace, complete with cozy fire pits to keep everyone toasty when the temperatures drop.
Start with some HOT competition on the WhirlyBall court, then head outside for cold drinks, great food, warm fires, and the kind of conversations that make a great night last a little longer.
Because the only thing better than beating your coworkers at WhirlyBall is reminding them about it around the fire afterward. 😉
🔥 Hot games. Cold drinks. Warm fires.
Patio season won't last forever. Make the most of it!
Book your next event and add the terrace experience.
EAT. DRINK. GAME ON.

🎃 TRICK OR TREAT YOURSELF TO SOME SERIOUS FUN!
Costumes? Check. Candy? Obviously. Kids bouncing off the walls with Halloween excitement? We can work with that. 👻
It's time for the WhirlyBall Family Halloween Bash!
Join us Saturday, October 31, from 10AM - 1PM for an afternoon of spooky-good family fun, featuring WhirlyBall, Laser Tag, Bowling, games, food, and plenty of reasons to show off those costumes.
Because Halloween should be about more than just collecting candy. It should be about making memories, laughing with the family, and maybe settling a little friendly competition while dressed as a dinosaur.
We bring the fun. You bring the little monsters. 🧟
🎟️ Tickets are available now on Eventbrite!

“Don’t worry, we do all the hard work for you!” Sure. We’ve heard that one before. 😏
Then you show up to find a plastic folding table tucked into some back room, a stack of flimsy white paper plates, another forgettably bland, lukewarm pizza and an activity the kids will barely remember by Monday.
Yeah… we think birthdays can do better. We throw the kind of birthday party the kids will be talking about for weeks. WhirlyBall. Laser Tag. Bowling. Lots of laughing. Great food. And an actual experience they’ll want to do again.
No sad party games required. And yeah, we’ll still do the hard work for you. 😉
You just bring the birthday kid and their crew. We’ll help take it from there.
🎂 Birthday parties are GAME ON at WhirlyBall. Book yours now!

MONDAY FUN DAY. 🏑🍕🍺
Who decided the weekend gets to have all the fun?
It’s Monday. The emails are back. The meetings are back. Your weekend already feels way too far away.
Sounds like a pretty good reason to GAME ON.
Grab some friends. Get a little too competitive. Order some food. Have a b**r. And give yourself something better to do tonight than sit on the couch thinking about Tuesday.
Because at WhirlyBall, the fun doesn’t stop just because the weekend did.
Eat. Drink. Monday Fun Day. GAME ON.

Planning a party sounds fun. Until you actually have to plan the party. 😅
What are we eating? Who has dietary restrictions? Do we need drinks? What time should everyone arrive? What are we actually going to do? Is everyone going to have fun? And why has Steve still not RSVP’d?!
Whether it’s a team-building event, birthday party, company outing, family get-together or just an excuse to get everyone in the same room, there are a LOT of moving parts.
It can be a real pain in the tuchas. That’s why we do the hard work.
Tell us who’s coming. We’ll help handle the games, the food, the drinks, the space and all those little details that turn “we should get everyone together” into an actual great time.
You’ve got enough to worry about.
Your job is to show up, grab a drink, talk a little trash and enjoy your people. We’ll handle the party. You just EAT. DRINK. GAME ON. 🏑🍕🍺

🎯 We talk a lot about the PLAY at WhirlyBall.
Let's talk about the EAT.
Because if you're expecting frozen mozzarella sticks and heat-lamp nachos, you're in for a surprise.
Our chef-driven menu is built to fuel competition and satisfy cravings with scratch-made favorites, creative specials, craft cocktails, and food that's worthy of the spotlight—not just something to munch on between games.
🍔 Bigger than bowling alley food.
🔫 More exciting than your average laser tag snack bar.
⛳ And let's be honest... it goes way harder than the menu at most golf bays.
Whether you're crushing a pizza, sharing appetizers with the team, or celebrating a victory with a handcrafted cocktail, the food at WhirlyBall is part of the experience.
Come for the games.
Stay because somebody at the table ordered something that smells incredible.
🍔 Eat.
🍺 Drink.
🎯 Game On.

Skip the party where everyone sits around a table. At WhirlyBall, birthdays are meant to be played.
Round up the crew for WhirlyBall, Laser Tag, Bowling and plenty of friendly competition—then refuel with pizza, cake and everything a proper birthday celebration needs.
The kids get to run, play, laugh and compete.
The parents? You might actually get to enjoy the party, too.
Less sitting. More playing. More laughing. More memories.
🎉 Birthdays are better when it's GAME ON.

Bragging rights pair well with b**r. 🍺🏑
Especially when there are plenty of drafts to choose from.
At WhirlyBall, the taps are always part of the game plan—with a rotating lineup of local craft favorites, familiar classics, seasonal pours and plenty of options worth sticking around for.
Win the game? Grab a b**r. Lose the game? Grab a b**r and demand a rematch.
Either way, you’re doing it right. Great games. Great drafts. Questionable amounts of trash talk.
Eat. Drink. GAME ON.
