WAUWATOSA - Bowlero Corp. announced on Jan. 5 the debut of Bowlero Wauwatosa, formerly AMF Bowlero Lanes, as the area's newest destination for bowling, birthdays, private parties, family outings and corporate events. 

Bowlero Wauwatosa is described in a news release as "completely re imagined, retro-chic design comes to life through quirky-cool wall graphics, plush lane-side seating and massive HD video walls at the end of each lane that play everything from live sports and rock concerts to music videos and classic family films.

"The venue also features three private event spaces of varying sizes, which offer the perfect setting for more exclusive gatherings." 

All furnishings, including settees before each of the 72 lanes, were part of the $1 million renovation of the Bowlero Wauwatosa. Other than the lanes, nearly everything in the bowling center was renovated.
