Allen, Texas is getting a major new family entertainment destination. High 5 Exchange has broken ground at The Farm in Allen, bringing a large indoor and outdoor entertainment center to the growing mixed-use development.
According to CultureMap Dallas, High 5 Exchange is planned for 2361 Quail Covey Road and is expected to open in 2027. The project comes from the family entertainment company founded by Scott and Jenny Emley, who previously opened locations in the Austin area. The couple has since relocated to McKinney, and another High 5 Exchange location is under construction in Mansfield.
What Will High 5 Exchange Have in Allen?
Bowling will be one of the main attractions at High 5 Exchange Allen. The venue will have 24 lanes supplied by QubicaAMF, including 16 traditional tenpin lanes and eight Fly’n Ducks duckpin lanes.
The traditional lanes will feature EDGE String pinspotters, HyperBowling, and Neoverse, while the duckpin lanes will provide a different bowling experience using smaller balls.
But bowling is only part of the planned entertainment lineup.
High 5 Exchange Allen will also include laser tag, a virtual reality arena, an arcade gaming floor, escape rooms, an immersive experience called Limitless from Creative Works, and outdoor miniature golf.
The facility will also include dedicated spaces for birthday parties, corporate gatherings, and private events, along with food and beverage service. While the specific food and beverage program for the Allen location has not yet been announced, the company’s Austin locations feature a full-service bar and American-style food with a gourmet twist.
High 5 Exchange Joins The Farm in Allen
The new entertainment center will be located within The Farm in Allen, a 135-acre mixed-use development at the southeast corner of the Sam Rayburn Tollway and Alma Drive.
The Farm combines residential, office, dining, retail, parks, and entertainment uses, making High 5 Exchange a natural addition to the development’s mix of destinations.
From my perspective, this is an interesting addition to Allen because it gives residents another reason to stay local for entertainment, group activities, and family outings. The combination of bowling, laser tag, virtual reality, miniature golf, and event space also gives the project a broader appeal than a traditional bowling center.
For people searching for things to do in Allen, Texas, High 5 Exchange could become an important local entertainment destination once it opens.
