Launch Family Entertainment (Launch) has announced a signed lease for its latest location coming to New Hampshire. The park will be in the East Side Plaza in Manchester.

Kashish S, Kunal P, Bhaumik S, and Gaurang P are spearheading the location’s development. The park will start construction in March and soon deliver high-energy attractions and unforgettable experiences for families across the community. Guests can look forward to a wide range of activities, including bowling, arcade games, mini golf, trampolines, mixed reality playground, and a soft play area for toddlers.

The park will also feature its KRAVE restaurant and bar, making it a go-to destination for celebration and everyday family fun. The anticipated opening date for the location is late this year, in November.

“Each member of our team brings their own strengths to this new venture, helping us become an active part of the community,” said Kashish. “We saw a real gap in family-friendly entertainment close to home, especially places where both kids and adults can have fun together. Launch gives us the perfect platform, with a wide range of attractions, and we’re excited to bring that energy and excitement to the Manchester community and beyond.”

The Manchester group brings diverse professional backgrounds to the venture, including corporate strategy, engineering, information technology, healthcare, pharmaceutical, and real estate management. They noticed that there was a lack of family entertainment centers in the area that didn’t cater to the whole family, with very few attractions and food choices. The team shared a vision by wanting to create a one-of-a-kind experience for families and is confident that opening a Launch Family Entertainment will bring family fun to the community.

“Launch Family Entertainment continues to expand rapidly across the country, driven by exceptional franchisees like Kashish, Bhaumik, Gaurang, and Kunal,” said Mike Stout, Chief Development Officer at Launch Entertainment. “This new park marks another step in strengthening our presence in the northeast region and connecting with more communities. We’re excited for the first park in New Hampshire’s debut later this year and remain eager to collaborate with other passionate operators looking to grow with our brand.”
