A bar that specializes in darts has chosen Philadelphia as its next target.
State of Play Hospitality - a U.S.-based international "Eatertainment" operator - announced Tuesday they are expanding its popular experiential concept, Flight Club and opening a new venue in Philadelphia next summer.
Flight Club will take over the original Philadelphia Stock Exchange building at 1417 Walnut St. The 7,000-square-foot venue will be near some of the best dining and entertainment spots in Philadelphia.
Inspired by the traditional British game of darts, Flight Club Philadelphia will bring a revolutionized version of darts with new technology that incorporates automatic scoring and runs exciting multiplayer games for groups of up to 400 people.
