Bowling in Georgetown is a short list rather than a scene, which is useful to know before you spend an evening looking. This guide names the venues a Guyanese newspaper lists, says what else is at each, and is clear about the two things it does not publish.
Where the lanes are
Kaieteur News, writing on 27 November 2024 about entertainment venues in Guyana, names two places in Georgetown with bowling.
Giftland Mall
Described as one of Guyana's largest entertainment destinations, the mall has "an arcade, a bowling alley, and a children's play area" alongside shopping, dining and cinema screenings, with a nightlife scene at weekends. For a family afternoon this is the practical choice, because if the lanes are full there is somewhere else in the same building to be.
Park Square Funcity
A family venue that "offers bowling, go-karting, laser tag, and a playground for youngsters", along with carousels, a Ferris wheel, bumper cars, arcade and video games, on-site restaurants and snack bars. Bowling here is one activity among several, which makes it the better option for a mixed group where not everyone wants to bowl — and the obvious choice for a work outing, since the same site covers go-karting and laser tag.
What this guide does not give you
No prices. The newspaper article naming these venues gives none, and the figures that circulate for Georgetown leisure are not attributable to the venues themselves. Call or check the venue's own page for the current rate per lane or per game, how many people a lane takes, and whether shoe hire is extra.
No opening hours. Same reason, with an added one: leisure hours change faster than any listing updates, and a wasted trip costs more than the game.
Planning an outing
- Weekends and holidays fill up. Lanes are a fixed resource and both venues are family destinations. Call ahead rather than arriving hopeful.
- Ask how a lane is counted. Bowling is normally priced per lane and per period rather than per head, so the cost of a group depends on how many fit on a lane.
- For a work outing, ask about the package. A venue that also runs go-karting and laser tag can usually build something around a group, but that is a conversation with the venue rather than a walk-in.
- Socks. Bowling shoes are hired at the lane.
Where to check
The venue names and what each offers are from Kaieteur News, 27 November 2024, read on 23 October 2026. For the current rate, hours and whether a venue is still operating, the venue's own page is the only reliable source: leisure businesses come and go, and a listing outlives the business.
