The Pizzeria at the Heart of the Five Nights at Freddy’s Franchise Becomes a Real Place, Opening in 2027
American Dream, the premier entertainment/retail destination, will bring the virtual world of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza from the globally popular Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise to life with the debut of the world’s first permanent immersive restaurant experience in 2027.
The activation is being built as a functional reimagining of the game’s titular location; working with IP holder ScottGames to faithfully adapt the video game concept into a fully encompassing immersive adaptation.
“American Dream is unlike any property in the world, continually imagining and creating attractions and experiences that simply can’t exist anywhere else,” said Don Ghermezian, Chief Executive Officer of American Dream. “For years, fans of Five Nights at Freddy’s have imagined what it would feel like to step inside Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza and we’re thrilled to have been selected to finally bring that world to life – only at American Dream.”
“The only way this experience succeeds is if it’s created by a team that knows Five Nights at Freddy’s inside and out,” said Atreyu Alcantar, Creative Manager, Licensing & Location-Based Entertainment at American Dream and Creative Lead for the attraction. “The animatronic show has to be authentic. The food has to be high quality. And above all else, we’re not building a set that looks like Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza – we’re building Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. This experience will immerse longtime fans in the world they’ve imagined for years while welcoming an entirely new audience to discover it for the first time.”
Visitors will be able to step inside Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, play arcade games, dine, watch an animatronic show, and step behind the curtain to experience survival horror inspired multi-player game experiences. At the heart of the pizzeria is a quick service dining experience, accompanied by two animatronic stage shows featuring Freddy and the Fazbear Band on the Main Stage, as well as Foxy the Pirate in his Pirate Cove.
“At American Dream, we live and breathe fandom. We’ve imagined what a Five Nights at Freddy’s experience could become for years, and the work our team has done in collaboration with ScottGames has exceeded every expectation,” said Josh Berdugo, Senior Vice President of Licensing and Location-Based Entertainment at American Dream and Triple Five Group. “This is shaping up to be unlike anything we’ve ever created before, and we can’t wait for fans to experience it.”
Additional details, including ticketing and opening date, will be announced at a later date.
