Parties at Edgeworks |

The entire gym is available for private parties and events customized to your specifications. Options include group climbing with or without staff provided, lessons, games & activities, or non-climbing events such as hot dog eating contests and slumber parties. The entire gym including the lounge, conference room, fitness studio and rental equipment are available for your use.

We take care of everything from the climbing, equipment, staff, group/party lounge so that your event will go smoothly. While climbing is for everyone (there are no age, athletic or size requirements), our viewing lounge will serve as a home base for your group so that climbers and non-climbers can enjoy the atmosphere the gym has to offer during and after your climbing session. |
