1 / 3Bowlarama
📍 Newtown, Wellington
Bowlarama in Newtown combines 12 glow-in-the-dark bowling lanes, immersive laser tag, GellyBall, Hyper Golf, arcade games and private karaoke rooms. Birthday packages with dedicated hosts. On-site bar and cafe with highly rated food.
We love Bowlarama! And it just seems to keep getting better. It's not "only" the lanes now; the laser tag is so much fun, the golf modern and interesting, the range of video games enough, the staff lovely and friendly and my daughter says the nuggets are the best she's ever had (I agree, the food is great for a family event place). Loads of fun for a range of ages (little kids to big kids/adults included). I will definitely be trying the karaoke and jelly ball in the not too distant future.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Reviewers love that Bowlarama keeps expanding beyond bowling — the laser tag maze is described as epic, the arcade delivers real prize wins like headphones, and the food is singled out for its quality, with nuggets drawing particular praise. Staff are described as lovely, friendly and genuinely enthusiastic.
