Lucky Strike Lanes

Lucky Strike Entertainment began in 2003 with a simple idea: reinvent bowling as a stylish, social experience. The company set out to move beyond traditional alleys, creating venues that blend bowling lanes with upscale food, craft cocktails, and a lively atmosphere. Over the years, Lucky Strike became known for its modern interiors, lounge seating, and event-driven programming, opening locations in major cities and entertainment districts across North America.

A major turning point came in 2023 when Lucky Strike was acquired by Bowlero Corp, the largest operator of bowling centers in the world. This move brought together a powerful portfolio of entertainment brands and accelerated Lucky Strike’s expansion. In December 2024, Bowlero Corp rebranded as Lucky Strike Entertainment Corporation, signaling a strategic shift to make Lucky Strike the flagship brand for upscale entertainment experiences.

As of November 2025, Lucky Strike Entertainment operates more than 360 locations across North America, including bowling alleys, family entertainment centers, water parks, and amusement venues. The company’s venues are typically found in high-traffic urban and suburban markets, offering a mix of bowling, arcade games, live music, and full-service dining. Lucky Strike also owns the Professional Bowlers Association, further solidifying its influence in the industry.

The company continues to grow, focusing on major metropolitan areas and lifestyle centers. Lucky Strike’s approach to venue design and programming has evolved to meet changing consumer preferences, introducing new formats and amenities that appeal to a broad audience. Its scale, brand recognition, and ability to adapt make it a strong partner for landlords and developers looking to bring experiential destinations to mixed-use and retail projects.
