Dubai's Loco Bear eyes global expansion after successful milestone

Dubai: Over 200,000 guests, 2,000 birthdays, 11,000 schoolchildren, and 6,500 corporate employees — in just one year. Loco Bear has cemented itself as Dubai’s ultimate indoor entertainment destination, and the journey has only just begun.

Marking its first anniversary on 17 August 2025, the Al Quoz 2 hotspot pulled out all the stops with a week-long celebration that culminated in a vibrant, fun-packed finale of live shows, arcade challenges, giveaways, and a cake-cutting ceremony that brought together loyal guests, influencers, and first-time visitors.

But the party wasn’t just about looking back, it was about showcasing what’s next. New additions include:

• Hyper-bowling lanes

• Expanded arcade and darts games

• Brand-new birthday rooms

• A sleek corporate meeting space

• A faster, upgraded booking system

“Loco Bear has grown into more than a play destination, it’s a place where families, friends, schools, and even businesses come together to create memories,” said Anshul Khaitan, CEO of Loco Bear. “We’ve had an incredible first year, and now we’re ready to take this experience beyond Dubai.”

The anniversary celebration also shone a spotlight on the people who shaped its story. In a heartwarming twist, Loco Bear invited not just its top spenders and most frequent visitors, but also five guests who left negative reviews in its early days — giving them front-row seats to see how far the brand has come in 12 months.

With its sights now set on the UAE, GCC, and the U.S., Loco Bear is gearing up for expansion, bringing its unique blend of play, entertainment, and family bonding to a global stage.

“Year two will be bigger, bolder, and even more unforgettable,” added Khaitan.

Bookings and inquiries can be made directly via Loco Bear’s upgraded booking platform, offering quicker navigation, instant confirmations, and a seamless experience.
