The ULTIMATE Birthday Venue for ALL-STAR Parties!

You’ve never seen a place like The College Basketball Experience. We may be home to the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame, but we are not a museum! The CBE is a great kids birthday party idea, allowing you to pay once and play all day long during normal hours. Most party groups stay one and a half to two hours, but you may end up staying longer after being caught up in the interactive and fun party games we have to offer!
