Message from their instagram, “ We’re Back, Lido Beach Arcade Monsters! 🌊After being hit by two hurricanes in just a few weeks, we’ve been working around the clock to get back on our feet. We’re excited to announce that we’re re-opening today, October 19th, 5 PM - 12 AM! 🎉
Our doors will be open from 12 PM to midnight everyday moving forward, and we could really use your support now more than ever while we continue to work towards full capacity everyday.

We’re offering an amazing deal on unlimited play wristbands while we work back to full game capacity $12.99 for all day play 🙏🏼)

3 months agoWig :3@MrSamiam08 I went a day or two ago and the left screen worked perfectly for maimai, idk what happen
7 months agoMrSamiam08Hey? Does anyone know if AM Lido was affected by the fire on the circle? I know it wasn’t near AM, It was in the former Mini Dounts spot which should be away from AM Lido.
8 months agoMrSamiam08Revisited AM Lido! Those DDR Players were great to play with and talk too! There’s a Bar now at the front of the arcade now. (To replace the one from the back) and the bar is accessible from the outside on the sidewalk now!
9 months agoMrSamiam08Price went up two dollars? And added back the reentry one?
10 months agoMrSamiam08Or maybe I played Pump before playing ddr :1
10 months agoWig :3@MrSamiam08 The pads where not slippery when i played a week ago which i was using skate shoes, maybe consider wearing different shoes if they felt slippery
10 months agoMrSamiam08Kinda weird why does this Location & Lakr Mary never get good tour videos. I’m very lucky I got a tour of Lido before the hurricanes, maybe I should upload them onto YouTube as a before & after
10 months agoWig :3DDR just got a fan, no more heat death when playing
11 months agoMrSamiam08And if you don’t believe me, then look! https://www.instagram.com/arcademonsters/p/DBT4ZIJP0sZ/?hl=en
11 months agoMrSamiam08Yo Lido reopened! Surprise announcement!
11 months agoMrSamiam08So um.. I don’t know what the height was for the storm surge but it may be a ft or 2? It doesn’t look as bad as Helene but idk. 🤷
11 months agoMrSamiam08Milton made landfall ☹️
11 months agoMrSamiam08Last comment / change I will make before I go to Miami to ride Milton out over there. Lets hope and pray for the best for AM Lido and the rest of the st Armand’s businesses & residents.
11 months agoMrSamiam08Great, more flooding and damage coming. Even I’m evacuating to Miami, though my house is likely not gonna get flooded. Maybe I could get to Round1 Pembroke Pines on Thursday or Friday 🤔
11 months agoMrSamiam08Not a another fucking hurricane TTmTT
11 months agoMrSamiam08Judging from the clean up right now, it looks promising for a reopening date sooner than later. I’m gonna say around sometime next month in November, but I don’t know as for sure, but it’s good how we got repairs going on for the games, and plus, They got power recently too so that might help with cleaning up. (Keep your fingers crossed 🤞)
11 months agoMrSamiam08Honestly, I really wanna help with clean up but I don’t know if I could get onto the island since it’s closed for everybody expect business owners and residents and I’m not either of those two TTwTT
11 months agoMrSamiam08So um, If you haven’t already seen or heard, Hurricane Helene recently swept though Florida, and hit the “big bend” of the state on Thursday night. As of now, St Armand’s (according to local news of ABC7) had some bad storm surge (which is like flooding) and I have no idea what happened with AM Lido here. I will be calling the location in a few minutes to see if they had some damage and if I do get an idea of what happened, I will let you all know and update the games in case of flood damage
1 year agoMrSamiam08Crappy run on piu today, likely just me.
1 year agoMrSamiam08Welp they removed Reflec beat
3 years agoJahDidntBounceDoes anyone know if Jubeat will be updated to Jubeat festo final with the launch of the new mix?
