Clacton Pier’s revamped bowling centre is set to reopen this weekend following a major transformation.
The Lanes has been closed for three weeks while the work has been carried out by an industry leading company.
QubicaAMF has installed the state of the art equipment which will provide a totally new experience for players.
It includes a 16 metre interactive LED wall which is directly integrated with the game play and the manufacturers ecosystem of exciting play features and entertainment.
The screen also has a selection of high quality on-demand themes, environments and games for either groups or individuals.
The bowling centre will be back in action on Saturday (June 27).
Pier General Manager Harry Peek said that he is looking forward to the reopening following the significant investment.
“Everyone from QubicaAMF and our own team have worked tirelessly to get the job completed,” he added.
“There has been a huge amount to do but they have all pulled together to make this happen and now we want to let our guests come and enjoy a totally new experience.
“The interactive LED wall is the first of its kind in this country with an immersive universe of engaging content, lighting and sound system with scoring system technology.”
Mr Peek said the BES NV Neoverse system will provide more reliability and will also include a self-service kiosk and new seating in a second phase of the project to be carried out later.
The Lanes Bowling Centre was first put in during 2011 and is a much more mechanical and intricate system.
“It definitely needed upgrading and we have been waiting for the right time to carry out the scheme,” said Mr Peek.
“We are absolutely delighted with the finished product and we hope our guests will feel the same. I am certain they will not be disappointed.
“We are excited to welcome back our bowling enthusiasts and believe that this equipment will bring in a host of new fans.”
QubicaAMF installed the Lanes 15 years ago and has an excellent long standing relationship with the pier. The company has 10,000 centres in 90 countries across the world.
