Rush Funplex, a popular entertainment chain featuring laser tag, go-karts, and other family-friendly activities, has announced plans to open a third location in the Kansas City metro area. The new center will be built in Lee's Summit, joining existing Rush Funplex sites in the Northland and Shawnee neighborhoods.

Why it matters

The addition of a Rush Funplex in Lee's Summit reflects the continued demand for entertainment and recreation options in the growing Kansas City suburbs. As the metro area expands, developers are looking to bring more diverse activities and attractions to meet the needs of local families and visitors.

The details

The new Rush Funplex location in Lee's Summit will offer the same mix of high-tech laser tag, go-kart racing, and other interactive games that have made the brand a hit in the Northland and Shawnee. The 50,000-square-foot facility will also include an arcade, mini golf, and food and beverage options.

• Rush Funplex currently operates two locations in the Kansas City metro area.
• The new Lee's Summit site is expected to open in late 2027.

What’s next

Rush Funplex plans to begin construction on the new Lee's Summit location later this year, with an expected opening in late 2027.
