Launch Entertainment Revolutionizes Family Fun with New Location Coming to Middle Tennessee
Established Entrepreneurs Establish Southeast Footprint for Leading Family Entertainment Concept
TENNESSEE – Kids, get off your phones, we’re headed out for some family fun! Launch Entertainment, a leading indoor family entertainment franchise, is jumping into a new market in the Nashville area. This state-of-the-art family entertainment park is planning to open in the summer of 2024 and will feature attractions such as indoor multi-level karting, trampolines, bowling, arcades, play structures, slides, zip lines, live music, party rooms, and family-oriented restaurant and bar.
The Middle Tennessee location will be owned and operated by Todd and Barbora Curlett, who are experienced entrepreneurs. The husband-and-wife duo built a successful childcare business from the ground up, spanning four locations and serving over 1000 families. Their experience and focus on safety, cleanliness, and healthy childhood development make them the perfect fit for Launch Entertainment. Their expertise in financial management, effective leadership, business growth, and creative marketing also promises to drive Launch Entertainment’s presence in the area.
“Since selling our childcare business in Massachusetts, our priority is to reunite our kids and family with their cousins, grandparents, aunts and uncles who all live in Spring Hill, TN. As “transports from up north” we don’t want to show up empty-handed, so we are bringing Launch, our favorite family entertainment experience!” said Todd Curlett. “As we near finalizing our site selection process, we look to begin construction this spring. We are beyond grateful for the constant support from the Launch corporate team. We hope the communities of Williamson County and Maury County will be as excited as we are to enjoy Launch’s safe brand of family fun.”
