Trampoline park headlines a roster of unique entertainment venues
One of Pilette’s more unusual features is the amount of entertainment venues in the neighborhood. You can release tension in the Rage Room, play more than 300 games at Planet VR or race with friends at the Kart Ranch. There’s even water-based fun at the Louisiana Swamp Base. But one of the most unique spots is Surge Entertainment by Drew Brees. The New Orleans Saints Quarterback became interested in the trampoline park concept after having a birthday party for one of his children at one. He met with Surge founder, Darren Balsomo, and the rest is history. The complex isn't just for jumping either. Adults, children and everyone in between can enjoy 13 lanes of bowling, a golf simulator, an arcade and an interactive video game experience with moving seats. Toddlers have their own soft play area, and everyone can find a snack at the Prime Bistreaux.
Residents of Pilette can visit the rage room at All the Rage in nearby Lafayette to relieve stress by breaking objects.
Residents can stop into Surge Entertainment by Drew Bees and play games, have dinner and hit the trampolines in Pilette.
