The Rush Funplex

The Rush Funplex in Orem is the kind of place families return to for every birthday, rainy day, and 'we need to do something' afternoon — because it simply has everything. Bowling lanes, indoor go-karts, laser tag arenas, a rock climbing wall, roller skating rink, and a giant arcade all under one very large roof.

For families with kids of different ages and interests, this is a genuine problem-solver. The 8-year-old who loves roller skating can spend an hour on the rink while the 13-year-old is in the laser tag arena and the 6-year-old rocks the arcade. Nobody's bored, nobody's compromising.

The go-karts are consistently the top attraction — multi-level tracks where parents can actually ride alongside kids (with height requirements for driving solo). Laser tag is another consistent hit, especially with the 9-14 crowd who bring competitive energy.

Budget-wise, this is one of the pricier outings at $120-200 for a family of four doing multiple attractions. The trick is buying bundle packages online before you arrive — they're significantly cheaper than individual ticket pricing at the door.

A geographic note: The Rush is in Orem, Utah Valley, about 3.5 hours from Moab. Think of it as a Salt Lake City-area destination rather than a Moab day trip. The facility is open until midnight on Saturdays, which makes it genuinely fun for families staying in the Utah Valley area.
