Press Release March 20, 2026
Pre-Open City-Wide Flag Hunt and First 100 Guests on Reopening Day Score Free Games for the Year

JACKSONVILLE, FL, March 20, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dave & Buster's, Jacksonville's premier destination for food, drinks, and entertainment, is proud to announce the Grand Reopening of its newly refreshed location at 7025 Salisbury Rd.. Following an extensive renovation focused on a lighter, brighter, and more modern guest experience, the venue will officially debut its new look on Friday, March 27, 2026, with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting at 10:45 a.m.

To celebrate this new chapter, Dave & Buster's is inviting the community to join a city-wide scavenger hunt and a massive reopening day celebration. From March 23 through March 25, Jacksonville residents can hunt for three hidden Dave & Buster's flags at iconic local spots. The brand will release two clues daily at https://www.facebook.com/DnBJacksonville.

Each daily winner who tracks down a flag will receive:

• A $100 Dave & Buster's Gift Card.
• An exclusive VIP Preview Party invite for the winner and five guests, offering a sneak peek at the refreshed space before the general public.

On Friday, March 27, the celebration continues with the Grand Reopening, where the first 100 guests in line at 11 a.m. will receive Free Unlimited Video Game Play for the Year.

The refreshed Jacksonville location features:

An Elevated "Watch" Experience: The revamped sports bar features a massive 40-foot screen—the best way to catch every touchdown, goal, or knockout—complemented by over 30 oversized HDTVs and an immersive sound system.
New "Sports Package" Games: The location has been upgraded with a new package of competitive arcade titles, including NBA Hoops, Air Hockey, Tundra Toss, and the exclusive UFC Challenge—available only at Dave & Buster's through January 2027.
Chef-Crafted Dining & Refreshing Cocktails: A bold new lineup of dishes, from savory steaks to game-day shareables, alongside a premium bar experience.
Human Crane: A larger-than-life twist on the classic arcade claw machine. Guests strap into a harness, becoming the claw themselves as they maneuver, drop, and grab prizes below.
Private Event Rooms Fully Refreshed: Our private event spaces have received a complete update, providing a modern, immersive setting for birthdays, corporate events, and group celebrations.
Unbeatable Value: Fans can still enjoy their favorite deals, including the Eat & Play Combo (starting at $19.99), Half-Priced Games every Wednesday, and a revamped Happy Hour (Mon-Fri 4-7 PM; Sun-Thu 9 PM-Close).

"Jacksonville has always been an incredible home for us, and we can't wait for our guests to step into this reimagined space," said General Manager James McMiller. "We've taken the classic Dave & Buster's fun and leveled it up with a sleeker, more vibrant atmosphere and an unbeatable sports-watching setup. It's a whole new way to experience the D&B our fans already love."

Dave & Buster's Jacksonville hours of operation are Sunday through Monday from 10 a.m. - midnight, Tuesday from 11 a.m. - midnight, Wednesday through Friday from 11 a.m. - 1 a.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. - 2 a.m... For more information, please visit www.daveandbusters.com.
