Get a Sun-Kissed Glow
Orchard Park is known across the country as the home of the Buffalo Bills, where Highmark Stadium fills with a sea of red, white and blue on autumn Sundays and the whole town leans into game day. Beyond the stadium lights, though, it is one of the Southtowns' most charming communities — a walkable village center with its Quaker roots still visible in the architecture, a school district families move here for, and tree-lined streets that look like a postcard in every season. It is a place that takes pride in showing up and looking the part, whether that is at the tailgate or at a Saturday-evening dinner downtown.
What Orchard Park does not have much of, from November through April, is sunshine. Western New York's lake-effect gray rolls in and stays a while, and that August color fades fast. That is why neighbors from the 14127 ZIP head to Extreme Sun Capsule, a comfortable 20 to 25 minute drive north, where we have kept Western New York glowing for more than 20 years.
For a town as proud of its weekends as Orchard Park, convenience matters, and both Extreme Sun Capsule salons are an easy reach from the village. Our larger Cheektowaga location at 3637 Union Rd is typically the closest, usually about a 20 to 25 minute drive north up the 219 and Route 400 corridors, and it keeps the most generous hours we offer — open seven days a week from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. If you find yourself heading a touch further east toward the Thruway or the airport, our Depew salon at 1402 French Rd is only a few minutes beyond, open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM and weekends from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
Both locations welcome walk-ins, so a tanning visit slides neatly into a day already full of school runs, work and errands. Stop by early before the rush, on a lunch break, or in the evening after practice lets out — no appointment required, no week to rearrange.
There is nothing quite like a home game in Orchard Park. The parking lots fill before sunrise, the grills fire up, and the whole town turns out in team colors for the kind of tailgate that has made Bills Mafia famous. Showing up looking healthy and rested is part of the fun, and a tan plays right into it. The simplest play for a game-day weekend is a UV-free custom spray tan the day before, giving you instant, photo-ready color that holds up from the tailgate through the final whistle.
If you would rather build a natural base, a few short UV sessions during the week leading up to kickoff will have you glowing by Sunday. Either way, our staff can help you time it around the schedule so you peak right when the cameras and group photos come out. From season openers to playoff pushes, plenty of Orchard Park fans treat us as part of their game-week routine.
Extreme Sun Capsule is far more than a row of tanning beds. Over two decades we have built a complete tan-and-wellness destination, and Orchard Park guests have the full lineup to choose from:
Not sure which to try first? Our team will walk you through the menu and help you build a routine around your skin type and your goals — deep dark color, a soft natural glow, or a relaxing wellness ritual after a long week.
Orchard Park is a town of milestones worth dressing up for. The well-regarded local schools send a wave of students our way each spring for a confidence boost before prom, and the village's elegant venues host weddings all summer long that have bridal parties booking spray tans in advance. Add in class reunions, anniversary dinners, family portraits and the occasional winter escape somewhere warm, and there is always a reason to want that even, healthy glow.
Custom spray tanning shines for these moments because it delivers instant, camera-ready color with no UV exposure and no waiting around. Whether the occasion is a black-tie evening, a backyard celebration or a beach trip, we will help you walk in pale and walk out glowing, perfectly on schedule.
The Southtowns offer no shortage of tanning beds, so why do so many Orchard Park residents make the drive to Extreme Sun Capsule? It comes down to experience and trust. We were one of the very first tanning salons in Western New York, and after 20-plus years we still treat cleanliness, safety and genuine customer care as the heart of the job. Every salon is licensed by the New York State Department of Health, and our equipment is sanitized between each guest.
We also stock premium products, carrying top lotions from Australian Gold and Designer Skin at price points for every budget. Our pricing is honestly competitive — the $19.99 per month Unlimited Tanning Package is one of the best values around — and we are happy to accept a competitor's coupon, so there is never a reason to overpay for great color. Add a friendly team that remembers your name and your favorite bed, and it is easy to see why Orchard Park guests keep coming back season after season.
Getting started is simple. New to indoor tanning? Stop in and our team will assess your skin type, set a safe starting time and choose the right bed so you build color gradually and evenly — never a burn. Ready to commit? The $19.99 monthly unlimited membership is the runaway favorite among our regulars, but we also offer single sessions and prepaid packages for occasional tanners and event-only visits.
Because walk-ins are always welcome, you can tan on your own terms — before the drive north, on a lunch break, or after a long Sunday at the stadium. Prefer to plan ahead? Give your nearest location a call and we will have everything ready. However you like to tan, the team at Extreme Sun Capsule is ready to help Orchard Park look and feel its best, all year round.
Our Cheektowaga salon at 3637 Union Rd is usually the easiest from Orchard Park, about a 20 to 25 minute drive north via the 219 and Route 400 corridors. Our Depew salon at 1402 French Rd sits a little further east along the same general route. Plenty of Orchard Park guests pair a session with a trip up toward the Galleria or the airport.
Absolutely. On a game-day weekend the smart move is a quick UV-free custom spray tan a day ahead, so you show up to the tailgate with instant color and no waiting. If you prefer UV beds, a few short sessions during the week build an even base in time for kickoff at Highmark Stadium.
Walk-ins are always welcome for UV tanning beds and booths at both locations, so you can stop in whenever it suits your schedule. For custom spray tanning and select wellness services we recommend calling ahead so a room and technician are ready when you arrive from Orchard Park.
Choose single sessions, prepaid packages, or our $19.99 per month Unlimited Tanning Package, which lets you tan as often as you like for one flat monthly rate and is the favorite among Orchard Park regulars. We also accept competitors' coupons, so comparing prices and saving is easy.
We offer UV tanning beds and booths at several intensity levels, including a Level 5 KBL P95 bed with red light therapy, plus custom UV-free spray tanning, hydromassage with red light therapy, infrared sauna, LED lipo body contouring, the Slim Pod wellness cocoon, and Revita LED light skin treatments.
Yes. Our custom spray tan is completely UV-free and produces a natural, even, streak-free glow within minutes. Orchard Park brides, bridal parties and anyone heading somewhere warm love it for instant, photo-ready color with no sun exposure at all.
Yes. Extreme Sun Capsule is licensed by the New York State Department of Health, and every bed, booth and room is cleaned and sanitized between guests. We have upheld these standards across Western New York for over 20 years as one of the area's original tanning salons.
