A refurbished bowling and entertainment centre is bowling over fans with its new £400,000 makeover. 

The Hollywood Bowl centre at Tower Park, Poole, now features 24 revamped bowling lanes, including four state-of-the-art VIP lanes. 

Inspired by Tinsel Town, the décor features icons from movies past and present who take front row seats as friends and family show off their ten pin bowling skills.

They battle it out to the top of a digital leader board thanks to an innovative scoring system.  

Guests visiting the centre can also enjoy its American style bar and diner featuring a selection of food and drinks with classics such as hot dogs, burgers, shakes and signature cocktails on offer. 

In addition, Hollywood Bowl’s amusement area offers leading games as well as family favourites such as air hockey and racing games. 

Kyle Hyde, Centre Manager for Hollywood Bowl Tower Park, said: “Unveiling our glitzy new centre is the perfect way to start the new year and we can’t wait to welcome guests to test out their skills on our refurbished lanes.

“The makeover will ensure friends and families can have fun and make memories together whilst they enjoy great bowling, delicious food and drinks, as well as the exciting amusement area for a fantastic value for money, quality experience in Poole.”

Guests can pre-book their bowling experience in advance at hollywoodbowl.co.uk/poole-tower-park.

They can wear their own shoes to bowl in.

The Hollywood Bowl Group has 69 ten-pin bowling and competitive socialising centres operating under the Hollywood Bowl and Puttstars (mini golf) brands. 

The company employs 2,200 people.
