We didn’t even plan to go to RGB Run that day.
We were just wandering around The District in Tustin, trying to kill an hour before a birthday party nearby, when I spotted the LED floor room on one of the store’s TVs and thought, “Wait, isn’t this that place I saw on Instagram?”
So of course, I walked in, asked a few questions, and before we knew it, we were signed up and ready to play.
If you’re in Orange County and looking for a spontaneous, high-energy activity with your kids, here’s everything you need to know about RGB Run in Tustin.

RGB Run is an interactive LED game room where the floor lights up with color-based challenges that test your reflexes and get your heart pumping. It’s located inside The District at Tustin Legacy, and each group gets a private room to play in.
The games are simple enough for little kids to enjoy—think: touch all the blue squares, avoid the red ones, green means safe—but fast-paced enough that even adults end up sweating. It’s a mix of color recognition, movement, and memory, all wrapped up in 20 minutes of high-energy fun.
From what I saw, it’s best for preschoolers and up, but even younger toddlers can enjoy just running around and naming colors. My 2-year-old was totally into it, even if he didn’t quite follow all the rules.

My RGB Run Review With Toddlers
We went into the RGB Run store in Tustin totally last-minute, and I’m so glad we did.
The moment the game started, my 4-year-old was all in. She understood the rules—touch the blue, avoid the red, green is safe—and she ran around trying her best to follow them. She didn’t always have the reflexes to dodge the red zones, but she was having so much fun she didn’t care.
Huntington, who’s 2, doesn’t quite have the coordination yet, but he loved just being part of it—yelling out “red,” “green,” “blue” as the lights appeared, then flopping on the floor halfway through like a toddler who had given his all.
I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did, but it turned into a full-on workout for all of us. Even though the session is only 20 minutes, between the jumping, sprinting, and color-chasing, I was sweating by the end.
Would I do it again? Absolutely. But next time I’d bring another family or a group of friends to lower the per-person cost. The more people you have, the cheaper it gets—up to 10 or more.
Pros:
- Super unique experience
- Got our energy out
- Both kids had fun, even at different ability levels
- Staff was super nice
- Loved having a private room just for our group
Cons:
- It’s short (only 20 minutes)
- A little pricey, especially for small groups
Is RGB Run Worth It With Kids?
Short answer: Yes! I went with a 2-year old and a 4-year old, and I was worried they wouldn’t understand the game, but they loved chasing the lights, and I loved that they were running and slept well that night. I could also see this being really fun for older kids and adults. It was super fun for me too!
It’s quick, high-energy, and so fun we were all sweaty by the end. That said, it’s not cheap—but the price per person drops as your group size goes up, so if you can bring more people, it’s definitely more affordable. I’d totally round up another family or two next time.
Kids under 4 may get half off (just ask), and each group gets their own private room.
Kid verdict: 10/10 fun. Parent verdict: Worth it—especially with a group.
What to Expect at RGB Run in the District at Tustin Legacy
Here’s what to know before you go, so you can show up ready to play.
⏱ Length of Time
Each session lasts about 20 minutes, broken up into quick games with 3 mini breaks (around 30 seconds to 1 minute each). It doesn’t sound long, but trust me—you’ll all be tired by the end. My 2-year-old laid down on the floor halfway through, signaling that he was tired.
💰 Price
The cost depends on how many people are in your group—the more people, the cheaper it is per person:
- 2 people: $19.99 each
- 4 people: $14.99 each
- 10 or more: $8.99 each
You can see the full pricing breakdown on their official website.
Toddler tip: Kids who are around 4 and under may qualify for half off, especially if they can’t fully participate. It’s not posted anywhere, but the staff offered it when they saw my kids.
🚗 Parking
RGB Run is inside The District at Tustin Legacy, and there’s free parking in the lot nearby. No issues finding a spot—it’s a pretty big lot. I went on a weekend afternoon and had no trouble.
👜 Gear + Phone Setup
Each private room has a small open entry area, and there’s a cubby outside the room where you can safely stash your purse or backpack.
Inside, there’s a wall-mounted phone holder that makes it easy to snap a few pics or short videos of your group running around the LED floor—hands-free. I loved being able to capture a few moments without juggling my phone, and having it mounted higher gave us a better view of what was happening.
🎟 Booking + Walk-ins
- Weekdays: You can usually just walk in—no wait.
- Weekends: Sometimes you’ll get lucky with a walk-in, but they recommend calling ahead or reserving online to guarantee your time slot.
- Each group gets a private room, so it’s just your family or friends playing together.
Tips for Visiting RGB Run Store With Kids
- Wear sneakers. You’ll be running and jumping, so closed-toe shoes are a must.
- You’ll get your own private room. No sharing with strangers—perfect when you’ve got littles.
- Use the phone holder. Each room has a wall-mounted phone stand so you can record hands-free. I loved that I didn’t have to hold my phone and could actually play. The angle from higher up gave a better view of the whole floor.
- There’s a cubby just outside the room where you can stash your purse, backpack, or diaper bag.
- Try to come with more people. The more people in your group, the cheaper the per-person cost. If you can get 10 or more, you’ll pay under $9 each.
- Kids under 4 may get half off. The staff offered us the discount based on age and ability, so it’s definitely worth asking.
- Weekdays are usually quiet. We didn’t have to wait at all.
- On weekends, call ahead. You might be able to walk in, but reservations are safer.

Final Thoughts: Visiting RGB Run With Kids
RGB Run is honestly such a unique experience. It’s fast, fun, and surprisingly intense in the best way. You’ll love it. Your kids will love it. It’s one of those rare things that feels just as much for grown-ups as it is for littles.
Yes, it’s short—and yeah, a bit pricey if you’re looking for something to fill a whole afternoon. But I realized I probably couldn’t go much longer than 20 minutes anyway (and neither could my kids). It’s a perfect burst of energy that leaves everyone sweaty, smiling, and ready for their next snack or sit-down meal.
If you’re already at The District in Tustin, or just want something high-energy and different to do with toddlers or preschoolers, I say go for it.
