Here’s a fun way to beat the heat and spend time with your family. Kids Bowl Free is a program that offers complimentary bowling to kids all summer long.
Kids who are registered for the program get two free games of bowling each day of the summer. Start and end dates vary by bowling alley.
Before participating, you’ll need to register your child. Participating bowling centers set their age limits, usually from age 2 up to age 15 or 17.
The only catch is that shoe rentals are required. Prices will vary depending on your chosen bowling destination. Some bowling alleys also have unlimited shoe rental passes you can buy for the summer.
Ready to get the ball rolling? Find a participating bowling center closest to you from the list of participating locations below. Then click the link to register your kids. I’ve included the start and end dates for each bowling center.
