Austin-based High 5 entertainment to expand in Jenks
TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) — High 5, an upscale family entertainment company based in Austin, Texas, is planning to move into the Oklahoma Aquarium development near the Riverwalk Crossing.
The Oklahoma location will feature traditional High 5 attractions, including 24 lanes of bowling, a two-story laser tag arena, axe throwing, and High 5's signature "Up Top" boutique bowling lounge.
“As the fastest growing city in Oklahoma, Jenks is continuously moving forward with a balanced and responsible approach to growth. That growth process includes partnering with businesses that draw people to our city. Based on citizen feedback, the Jenks City Council agreed on a long-term strategy in 2021 that focused on offering high quality, all-ages entertainment, and amenities to both our residents and guests,” said Jenks Mayor Cory Box.
In addition, Jenks will offer escape rooms and an expansive resort-style miniature golf course allowing for outdoor entertainment. Craft food and beverages, multiple bars, and event spaces, all key features of High 5’s brand, will be among the many offerings continued in the Jenks location.
“High 5, which will be located on our Oklahoma Aquarium Campus, will be a welcome addition as it fulfills the need for an all-ages, family-friendly entertainment space in Jenks," said Box. "We are excited to welcome them as the first of many upcoming top-notch amenities to our Riverfront District. Since I have been Mayor, I’ve been known to say that Jenks is open for business. I appreciate High 5 for recognizing that we were the best option for opening their first Oklahoma location. We appreciate the opportunity to partner with High 5 as we continue our commitment of making Jenks the best place in Oklahoma to live, work, and play."
High 5 Jenks is slated to open in early 2024.
