Dallas-based Main Event Entertainment soon will double the number of states in which it does business, bringing its Eat.Bowl.Play. experience to five new states.

The company has selected sites for Main Event Entertainment centers in Louisville, Kentucky; Memphis, Tennessee; West Chester, Ohio; Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Independence, Missouri. Main Event will also expand its presence in two states with new locations in Fort Worth, Texas, and Avondale, Arizona. All seven centers are slated to open by summer 2016.

“Main Event is growing at a rapid pace, and 2016 is shaping up to be a milestone year,” said Main Event CEO Charlie Keegan. “We will open a record number of our centers and bring Main Event’s unique blend of active entertainment and upscale food and beverage options to new markets.”

“Families and singles are looking for a new, highly interactive entertainment experience, and we believe this demand will only continue to grow,” said Keegan.

 With each new center, Main Event hires more than 100 team members for management, sales, technical services and food and beverage positions. Candidates experienced in casual dining, hospitality, family entertainment and retail management are encouraged to apply. Applications are now being accepted at www.mainevent.com/careers.
