It will be located in the former Tangs Buffet Unit at the Victoria Shopping Centre and would operate across two floors.
Boom Battle Bar already has venues in a number of UK destinations, including Lakeside, Chelmsford, Norwich, as well as London to name a few.
Bosses say the Southend venue will feature games like beer / prosecco pong, augmented reality axe throwing, boom box private karaoke booths, augmented reality darts, and shuffleboard.
Alongside the feature games, there will be a premium bar with cocktails and “delicious” street food featuring classics such as dirty fries and chicken tenders.
There will also be packages for hen, stag, and birthday arrangements as well as themed bottomless brunch available.
Richard Harpham, chief executive officer at Boom Battle Bar, said: “We are excited to be bringing the Boom experience to the iconic Southend with our newest Boom Battle Bar venue.
“After the success of our venues in Chelmsford and Lakeside, we can’t wait to welcome crowds of locals and tourists alike to play our most sort after games from axe throwing to prosecco and beer pong and sing in our boom box private karaoke booths, with cocktails, street food, live sport on large screens and DJ’s spinning.
“We just cannot wait to get the doors open.”
Southend Council say they are hopeful that the Boom Battle Bar will open in time for the summer.
