A second way to bowl in Palmy
Palmerston North already had the country's biggest lane count at Bowlarama; in June 2025 it gained something smaller. Timezone opened a 940-square-metre centre at 113 The Square on 14 June, with short-lane bowling as one of its attractions alongside ColourGrid and a Winners Vault prize counter.
The two places suit different groups. Bowlarama's 26 lanes are full length and priced per game, while Timezone's short lanes are part of a card-based arcade and better for younger children or a quick round between other games. Its party room takes up to thirty guests, according to the operator's opening announcement.
