Hollywood Bowl to open largest ever venue at Cardiff St David’s

Hollywood Bowl is set to open its largest entertainment centre in the UK at Landsec’s St David’s Centre in Cardiff.

The venue, opening in Spring 2026, will offer a mixture of competitive socialising activities across a 45,000 sq ft space.

Spanning over two floors, Hollywood Bowl at St David’s will offer ten-pin and duckpin bowling lanes, interactive darts, and electric go-karting. The venue will also feature an arcade with pool tables and diner-style food and drink options.

Pablo Sueiras, head of retail and hospitality leasing at Landsec, said: “Welcoming Hollywood Bowl to St David’s, in what will be the brand’s largest UK opening yet, further cements St David’s role as the go-to destination for the best brands and experiences in the region. Featuring Cardiff’s first confirmed electric go-karting experience, this latest signing strengthens St David’s appeal as a first-choice place for families in Cardiff and beyond.”

Laurence Keen, chief financial officer for Hollywood Bowl Group, added: “We are excited to confirm plans to open a fantastic new family entertainment centre at the popular St David’s shopping centre in the heart of Cardiff.

“Opening spring 2026, this will be our biggest new centre opening yet. Cardiff has a thriving leisure culture and we’re proud to be able to deliver a second site in the city, creating more local employment and opportunities for families and friends to make memories together.”
