Our business model creates value by continually investing in enhancing the customer experience

What sets us apart


Successful brands

We operate an extensive portfolio of bowling and mini-golf centres across the UK and Canada, under our Hollywood Bowl, Splitsville and
Putt & Play brands.


High-quality estate

Our centres are predominantly in prime locations, in out of town multi-use leisure and retail parks, alongside cinema and casual dining sites.


Motivated and engaged teams

Our teams are the face of our business and are focused on delivering the best brand experience for our customers.


Landlord relationships

Excellent relationships with developers, agents and landlords ensure that we maintain a strong pipeline of potential new high-quality sites.


Strong balance sheet

By driving revenues, continuing to achieve healthy margins and maintaining a strong balance sheet, we are able to invest appropriately in all areas of our business and create value for our stakeholders.

What we do

Our centres offer a complete entertainment experience for customers of all ages.
Alongside our core offer of bowling or mini-golf, they can also enjoy amusements
and food and drink. These additional offerings not only enhance their experience
and increase reasons to visit, but also increase dwell time and secondary spend.
