Smash Park

Smash Park in West Des Moines is an activity-driven venue built around indoor pickleball courts, axe throwing, darts, duckpin bowling, arcade games, a Batbox baseball simulator, and private karaoke, plus an outdoor patio with shuffleboard, bocce, cornhole, and its own bar. Private event spaces flex from 10 up to 700 guests, spanning the patio, bar areas, and game zones, with scratch-made catering and a drink program of craft cocktails, local beers, and zero-proof options.

The events team layers in add-ons like custom trivia and private tournaments, which makes the format more structured than a standard restaurant buyout. Team-building bookings, kids' birthday packages, bachelor and bachelorette parties, rehearsal dinners, and full-venue holiday parties are all standing offerings. It is best for corporate team events, casual birthday parties, and reunions where built-in games do the work of entertaining a mixed crowd.
