GameSide’s experiential leisure arrives in Catalonia
14 January, 2026Experiential leisure is making a qualitative leap in Spain with the arrival of GameSide, the French brand that is revolutionising entertainment in Europe by merging gaming, gastronomy and social experiences. The company has chosen Catalonia for its first opening in the country, with a centre in Terrassa that marks the start of its Spanish expansion. The facility, located opposite Parc Vallès, represents an investment of 1.7 million euros and positions the region as a benchmark for innovative and participatory leisure.
The project stems from the vision of Frédérique Boni, Rudy Chelli and Léo Carral, three entrepreneurs with an established track record in the sector following the success of a renowned escape room company. Their proposal goes one step further with Action Game, a large-scale immersive experience recognised as the best in France, which unfolds along a 60-minute route with 20 challenges distributed across four thematic universes. The system allows up to 75 people to participate simultaneously, combining adventure, skill and teamwork.
Beyond the game, GameSide offers an integrated concept of social leisure with quiz shows, private karaoke rooms, social bar and restaurant with tapas, cocktails and international beers. The space is designed for groups of friends, families and companies and represents the first step in an ambitious international expansion that already includes sites in France, Switzerland and Belgium and new openings planned in Europe and North America.
