The new 23,000sq.ft bowling centre will include 18 fully computerised lanes, including four VIP lanes, an American-style diner and amusements and pool areas.

“We are very excited to be bringing a new, state-of-the-art entertainment venue to intu Derby,” said Steve Burns, CEO of parent group The Original Bowling Company. “The new Hollywood Bowl will provide high-quality, fun-filled leisure experiences to customers of all ages in our bowling, diner, bar and amusement areas.”

Situated on the third level of the centre, the leisure area will also feature Paradise Island Adventure Golf, a 14,000sq.ft mini-golf experience.

“This is a really ingenious project where we’re converting a deck of the multi-storey car park into further leisure anchors,” said intu development director Martin Breeden.
