Founding perks,
in detail.
Eight things the first 100 members get. A reservation is not an investment or venue access. Refund conditions, FAQs and the reservation agreement are below.
01
Founding member status
Your name is on the founding list forever. The first 100 people who believed in ARC get a permanent founding member title, separate from any membership we sell later.
02
First in line when we open
Founding members hear every milestone first and get the first chance to turn a reservation into a full membership before we open the doors to anyone else.
03
Full refund if ARC never opens
If ARC never opens in Los Angeles, you receive the full reservation amount back automatically within 30 business days. Changing your mind does not qualify. There is no contractual opening deadline. Read the FAQ and agreement below for the full conditions.
04
Invites to founder events
Before the building exists, the community does. Founding members get invited to gatherings, dinners and preview events as we build toward opening.
05
Early booking for leagues and classes
When leagues, classes and studios open for booking, founding members book first. Popular time slots go to the founding list before the general public.
06
Founding member ARC kit
A welcome kit made only for the founding 100. Kit details will be shared with founding members as we get closer to opening.
07
Meet the other 99 founders
The founding group is the first community ARC ever has. You will know the other founders before the doors open, not after.
08
Founding member pricing
Founding members get pricing that later members will not see. Exact membership rates are set closer to opening, and the founding rate will always be the best we offer.
Your questions, answered.
Can I get a refund if I change my mind?
No. Because this is a dedicated founding allocation, change-of-mind refunds prior to opening are not offered. The full-refund promise applies if ARC never opens in the city. Any cancellation or refund rights required by applicable law still apply.
Is there a deadline for ARC to open?
There is no contractual opening deadline. Published milestones are targets, not guaranteed dates. A delay, including a missed target, does not by itself establish that ARC will never open or make a refund due. This means the reservation may remain outstanding without a fixed end date.
How do I request a refund?
You do not need to request one. If ARC never opens in the city, refunds are sent automatically to your original payment method within 30 business days.
When will I receive my refund?
Refunds are issued automatically within 30 business days. The time ARC takes to issue a refund is separate from the additional time a payment provider or bank may take to credit your account.
Founding reservation agreement.
1. What you reserve
Your founding reservation is made with ARC LLC. It is not an investment, equity ownership or current venue access. Future membership rates and the final details of benefits are separate from this reservation payment.
2. Opening and timing
ARC has no contractual opening deadline. The published opening target of 2028-10-09 is not a guarantee or a refund deadline. Another city's opening does not fulfill your reservation in the city. A missed target or a period of inactivity alone does not trigger the full-refund promise.
3. Refund eligibility
If ARC never opens in the city, you are entitled to the full reservation amount you paid. Because this is a dedicated founding allocation, change-of-mind refunds prior to opening are not offered. Nothing here limits rights that applicable consumer law requires.
4. Receiving a refund
No refund request is needed. If ARC never opens in the city, refunds are sent automatically to your original payment method within 30 business days. Bank or payment-provider processing may add time after issuance.
5. The agreement before payment
This agreement is linked before payment and applies to the version accepted by each member. The legal business receiving the reservation is ARC LLC.
