About Metro Esports

Metro Sports & Entertainment Group is a digital sports and media company with a laser focus on leveraging the viral popularity of gaming and esports to attract, engage, and educate a broad and diverse community.

Our facilities feature next-gen gaming consoles, gaming PCs, and dedicated team spaces designed to deliver exceptional experiences for learning, competition, creativity, and safe-space recreation. Metro operates locations in Doylestown, PA; Warminster, PA; Fairless Hills, PA; Glenside, PA; West Chester, PA; Pittsford, NY; and Rochester, NY.

Two goals drive us: creating access and building bridges. We create access by engaging diverse demographics within the gaming space, crafting experiences that welcome them and cultivate their talents. We build bridges by using esports to introduce them to the power of careers in STEM and helping them gain the skills needed to enter those fields.
