Following our listing on the main stock market in 2016 we became Hollywood Bowl Group, seeking out the perfect locations for our bowling and golf centres nationwide. We formed our customer proposition, built on real feedback, and went from strength to strength with our in-centre game technology and online scoring systems.
We continue to expand our estate and look for profitable opportunities to grow; now with 71 bowling and mini golf centres across the UK and an average of three new sites opening each year here in the UK, along with the recent acquisition of Splitsville in Canada, we’re proud to be ambitious market leaders in experiential family entertainment.
At Hollywood Bowl Group, we value diversity and inclusion, and we’re committed to creating a working environment that promotes equal opportunities. Individual differences and the contributions of all employees are recognised and valued and we believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace makes us a more relevant, more competitive, and more resilient company.
