The city of Madison has announced plans to break ground on a “transformative” arts and entertainment district aimed at elevating the quality of life for area residents.
Located off Galleria Parkway near Interstate 55, “The Gallery” will be a privately funded, mixed-use destination that blends entertainment, dining, retail, and office space in a community space. The development will be highlighted by Spinners, a 120,000-square-foot family entertainment center featuring bowling, skating, games, and more. Spinners also has another location in Florence.
“The Aldermen and I are excited to announce Madison’s newest children’s venue. Spinners will be opening its second facility, this one in Madison, highlighting skating, bowling, games, and so much more,” Madison Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler said. “As always, Madison does it right the first time, and we are excited about this venue coming to our city. Very soon we will see some very happy children.”
“We are excited to open a second Spinners Family Entertainment Center in Madison, MS. As a Mississippi-based company, Spinners has always been about bringing families and friends together to make lasting memories,” Spinners owners Jennifer and Terrence Lott said.
“After meeting with the mayor and hearing her passion for the city and its families, we knew Madison was the perfect fit. Our new state-of-the-art facility will offer over 120,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor fun, and we’re honored to share this vision with the mayor, the board of Aldermen, and Bellamare Development.”
As part of The Gallery development, Royal Street will feature French-inspired walkable architecture, lined with local restaurants, boutique retail, and upstairs office space.
The development is being designed and engineered by Mississippi-based partners, including WBA Architecture and MP Design Group, reinforcing Bellamare’s commitment to investing locally. Groundbreaking is expected by fall of 2025, with construction beginning shortly after. The project is privately funded, with no taxpayer dollars being utilized.
