10% Discount extended to 5/23

Bowlero has brought back their Summer Season Pass for 2024 after discontinuing them for 2023. Without a discount, they're a very good deal (if you bowl). Until 5/23 it's a slicker deal since they're discounted 10%.

For an even slicker deal, buy the passes in person with the Costco GCs for additional 20% off ($80 for $100 GCs). So for my alley, for premium passes it's $51.28 - 20% (GC) = $41.02. For basic pass, it's $37.79 - 20% = $30.23. If you like to bowl, this is a crazy good deal. GCs can be purchased on Costco's site and they're emailed to you in about an hour.

Prices vary by location so if you plan on the premium pass, check out multiple locations near you before you pull the trigger. I found them for the prices listed below for a couple locations near me. I looked more widely and found the lower prices ($37.79 basic and $51.28 premium).
SUMMER SEASON PASSES (10% discount expires 5/23).

Purchase a Summer Season Pass and bowl 2 games every day at your selected center – all for one low price! Plus, when you buy your pass today you'll save 10%* on your pass purchase. The best deal of summer is officially here!

*The 10% discount is already applied to the Basic and Premium Summer Season Pass price below.

Premium Summer Season Pass
Valid for 2 games of bowling, shoe rental, $5 arcade card reload, 15% off food and non-alcoholic beverages, and can be used at any participating location!
$62.98 (normally $69.99)

Basic Summer Season Pass
Valid for 2 games of bowling, plus shoe rental.
$49.49 (normally $54.99)
I bought this pass in 2022 and 2021 and made my $ back after 3 days of bowling - 2 days if you rent their shoes. The basic pass is only good for one location. If you travel and want to try multiple bowling alleys, the Premium pass is good at all participating locations. In previous years, I used it in multiple states. The pass is valid from May 24 to Sept 2.

In past years, you could use the pass all week but not on friday/saturday/sunday nights. The website doesn't say exactly when it's valid since it's location specific. After you select a location, you'll see "Valid Times" above the area where you select passes. For a couple Seattle area locations that I picked, the passes were valid Sunday - Friday from open to close and Saturday open to 4pm. YMMV

They added the $5 arcade card reload this year so I'm looking forward to trying that. According to their FAQ [bowlero.com], it adds $5 each day you bowl.

I'm in for 4 of these (my wife and kids). Hope y'all find this helpful.

I forgot to list this cause I'm more focused on the bowling then the arcade but you can also add on an 80 credit Arcade card for $19.95. They list this as a $40 value.
EXCLUSIVE ARCADE OFFER!
Get an 80-credit Arcade Card for just $19.95 ($40 value!) when you buy a Summer Season Pass! One Arcade Card per pass holder can be purchased per day. The 10% off pre-sale discount is not valid on this offer.

Can you reserve a lane online? I only see options to reserve by Hrs and not by games.

Southern california has this summer pass for $38 for basic and $52 for premium. This is with 10% discount. Discount ends 5/15/24. I just bought 4 passes today at bowlero.i got 3 basic and 1 premium for the food discount. I added 2 arcade cards ($80 for $40) To add to my savings, I purchased bowlero giftcards from costco $100 for $80. ($200 for $160) I wasnt able to add GC for online purchased so I went to bowlero to use the GCs. It was a such a sweet deal! With costco GCs I paid $165 for $205 worth of stuff. We r set for the summer.

You're right. I just picked Bowlero Orange County and got the same price as you did. Looks like I'll have to shop around. Also good tip on the Costco giftcard.

Was it any trouble to pay for passes with Costco GCs? I am planning on buying and going to get passes on Monday,

Also, do you know if like I can 2 passes at same day or do they have limit of 1 pass per person per day?

Thanks

No trouble at all at Bowlero to use GCs from Costco.

You can only use the pass 1 per day per person.

Not sure how they are going to verify the person to the pass. I purchased 4 for my husband, 2 kids and I but I am wondering if I am able to use my husbands and My pass for my nephews

I have some confusion about it still, I asked person at my local Bowlero also and I think was being cryptic? Said limit of 1 limit per person but no limit of redemption or something.

I saw this on Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/Bowling/...k/l01tndy/

Only one pass per pass holder can be used each day. For example, if a bowler uses their Summer Season Pass to redeem their 2 games of bowling, then that bowler will not be allowed to use a different pass to redeem an additional 2 games of bowling that day.
But then other people got different answers, I am attaching photos also of those email

2 years ago when they last had it, my local bowling alley told me that I could use multiple passes for one person even though they were under different names. Clearly, they were bending the rules. Moral of the story is to be nice to the front desk folks.

The kids bowl free program is a lot less expensive but doesn't seem to include shoes (this would add up quickly). The applicable bowling alleys in my area (Seattle) between the 2 programs has no overlap. So I guess it depends on where you want to bowl and how much you bowl.

Confirmed. I also used Costco GCs with no problem. In fact, the front desk person thought it was worthwhile.

Just bought from bowlero anaheim/gardenwalk. Premium is $51.28.

Used bolwero gcs from Costco just fine, just be prepared for it to take some time - unfortunately bowlero GCs are just numbers w/o barcodes to scan so the attendants have to manually punch in each $25 gc.

To make it easier on them, consider bringing all the gc #s and pins consolidated on an excel sheet. They also need a full name, email, and phone number for each pass so jotting it down ahead of time for them will make the process go smoother.

After purchase, I was handed the physical summer passes to take home today, with instructions that first use starts may 24. Overall good deal.
