Thrill seekers in Chelmsford can look forward to some exciting action after Hollywood Bowl officially kicked off work on its newest multi-entertainment centre in the city.
Located in The Meadows Shopping Centre in the heart of Chelmsford, the new Hollywood Bowl centre will offer customers a taste of Hollywood when it opens its doors later this year to its 80th venue.
With work now underway on the two-floor unit, it is set to feature 21 ten-pin bowling lanes, including exclusive VIP lanes, alongside lanes of interactive darts, pool tables and a fun-filled amusements area. Guests will also be able to enjoy great value diner-style food and drink, with bar and diner facilities available throughout the centre.
Adding to the excitement, Hollywood Bowl Chelmsford will be the first centre to feature Neoverse – a brand-new entertainment experience bringing even more ways for guests to play, compete and have fun. Neoverse integrates directly into the gameplay experience, projecting vivid graphics, dynamic lighting effects, and integrated scoring data above the bowling pins to transform traditional bowling lanes into an interactive visual atmosphere.
The new centre will also create new local jobs, giving successful candidates the opportunity to benefit from Hollywood Bowl’s brilliant training and development programmes, opening the door to exciting careers within the leisure and hospitality industry.
Brad Milo, Area Support Manager for Hollywood Bowl Chelmsford, said: “Get ready Chelmsford, because we’re bringing you an entertainment experience like no other! Our new Hollywood Bowl centre is about to become the go-to spot for fun, friendly competition, and creating unforgettable memories.”
Sue Patel, General Manager at The Meadows Shopping Centre, added: “Hollywood Bowl is a fantastic addition to The Meadows, bringing world class entertainment from bowling and interactive darts to great food and drink right to the heart of Chelmsford. This is a truly exciting milestone for The Meadows as we continue to grow our offering and cement our position as the go-to destination for unforgettable experiences in the city.”
Hollywood Bowl Chelmsford is so much more than just bowling! The brand-new centre will be the perfect destination for nights out with friends, colleagues and families.
Hollywood Bowl Chelmsford is due to open Winter 2026.
