Duckpin bowling, karting, arcade games and a bar could be headed to Copper Sky.

Developers this week released a new rendering of the proposed Maricopa Entertainment Center, giving residents their first detailed look at a project envisioned as a year-round entertainment destination near Copper Sky Regional Park.

The concept calls for a 25,000-square-foot indoor-outdoor venue immediately west of the park. Planned attractions include duckpin bowling, karting, arcade games, a mixed-reality arena, social gaming, a multi-level climbing structure, a putting course, café, bar and event space. Plans also include a community gathering area with lawn games and an entertainment stage.

Developers are also exploring the possibility of adding a hotel or restaurant adjacent to the project.

“Providing important services right here in the city is good for Maricopa residents and the Maricopa economy,” developer Scott Bartle said. “Maricopans should spend their leisure time on the racetrack at Copper Sky, not the racetrack that is SR 347.”

Mayor Nancy Smith said the project has the potential to expand local entertainment options while complementing Copper Sky’s growing role as a destination for sports and events.

“It’s exciting to see Maricopa’s growth creating new opportunities for businesses and amenities that enhance life in our community,” Smith said.
