When modern entertainment venues look to elevate guest experiences and stand out in a competitive market, bowling remains a go-to attraction for immersive, high-energy fun. Funk Bowling was proud to partner with ELEVATE Entertainment Center in Athlone, Ireland, to deliver a premium, full-scale bowling installation designed to energize this already action-packed venue.
Located in the heart of Ireland, ELEVATE offers guests a wide range of indoor activities—including electric go-karting, mini-golf, laser tag, axe throwing, and now, eight brand-new bowling lanes built by Funk.
Project Details
This project called for a complete installation of eight bowling lanes, equipped with Funk’s signature Platform scoring system. Designed for intuitive play and seamless operation, the scoring platform automatically tracks frames and engages players with responsive visuals and game modes—all tailored to the venue’s dynamic atmosphere.
While ELEVATE’s team designed and installed the lighting in-house, Funk Bowling handled all aspects of the bowling infrastructure, from lane build-out to technology integration. The result is a low-maintenance, high-throughput attraction that complements ELEVATE’s mission of delivering “thrills, competition, and fun” to guests of all ages.
As with all Funk projects, this installation emphasized efficiency, reliability, and style—providing ELEVATE with a long-lasting and scalable solution to drive engagement and revenue.
