AMF lanes and Jurassic mini golf on Cuba Street
Bowlarama's 26 lanes fill the centre at 94 Cuba Street in Palmerston North, and the operator says they run on AMF equipment with electronic scoring. Beyond the lanes there is an 18-hole black-light mini golf course with a Jurassic theme, pool tables, arcade machines, air hockey, a licensed bar and a snack counter. A party room upstairs can be hired for NZ$30 an hour.
Weekdays revolve around leagues: a doubles competition on Tuesdays, a Special Olympics group on Wednesdays, the 50 Forwards on Thursday mornings at 10am and a Business House league once a month. Bumpers can be set up for children aged 10 and under, for older bowlers and for people with a disability. Every bowler needs socks, which the centre sells at NZ$3.50 a pair. Details were checked on 11 November 2026.
