Ten-Pin Bowling Options Across Parramatta

How Bowling Alleys Work

Kicks Tenpin & Arcade borrows its name from the nightclub that once filled the same Parramatta Leagues Club floor, and the neon still fits. On Level 3 at 1 Eels Place there are seven tenpin lanes, an arcade of classic and new machines with a prize counter, and the XD Dark Ride, in which seats tilt and jolt while you fire at on-screen targets.

The listing sets a minimum group of 10, and most of what Kicks offers is shaped around parties rather than a casual game or two.

Party formats at Kicks, by age group:

  • Kids 12 and under: bowling, a meal with chips, cordial, invitations and time in a party room
  • Bigger kids' packages: tokens for the arcade, tickets for the prize counter and a dark ride
  • Teens 12 and over: sliders or pizza plus two dark rides
  • Adults, 15 or more: canapés with lanes and a simulator ride, plus a welcome drink further up the range
  • Corporate groups: a club meeting room for a half or full day, then discounted bowling

Pricing starts from $11 per person. Extras such as ice cream cakes, showbags and bowls of lollies, chips or popcorn can be added to kids' parties.
