The second activity your bowling center is missing
Groups bowl for an hour — then leave. A QuizX Arena next to your lanes keeps them in the building: quiz first, bowl after, drinks in between. Longer visits, higher spend per group.
Rooted in the attractions industry
See you in person? We visit IAAPA Expo Europe and exhibit at the Recreatie Vakbeurs — let's meet up.
From one-activity visit to a full night out
Bowling operators know the pattern: a group books one hour of lanes, has a great time, pays and leaves. The revenue ceiling is the lane. A quiz room breaks that ceiling — it turns a 1-hour visit into a 2.5-hour night out with food and drinks in between.
It also fixes the waiting problem. On busy evenings groups wait for lanes; the arena absorbs them profitably instead of letting them stand at the bar checking their phones. On quiet weekday evenings it is the attraction that gets corporate outings and team-building groups through the door.
The room runs itself: a virtual host presents every show, your staff only adds the booking. Combination deals (bowl + quiz + bites) are the proven formula at our existing venues.
Why it works
Longer visits
Bowl + quiz + F&B combos stretch the average group visit — and the average ticket.
Extra staff
No quizmaster needed. The virtual host runs every session while your team works the lanes and bar.
Rotating editions
Music quiz, generations battle, kids edition — regulars come back for the next show.

10+ years of quiz shows, from 15 to 3,000+ players
Before the Arena there were 10+ years of QuizX pub quizzes and company shows — 15 players in a bar corner up to 3,000+ in event halls. We know exactly what keeps a group at the table one more round.
That knowledge now runs your quiz room, every session, without a quizmaster on the payroll. Meet the mothership at quizx.nl (Dutch).
Frequently asked questions
How much space do I need next to my lanes?+
From 5 m² for a two-desk Starter setup up to about 30 m² for the full 8-desk arena. A disused lane section, party room or storage corner is often enough — we always make a custom floor plan.
Does it work as a combination deal with bowling?+
Yes — that is the proven model. Venues sell bowl + quiz + food arrangements that lift the average group ticket significantly. The fixed session length makes it easy to schedule around lane bookings.
What does it cost and what does it earn?+
From €19,500 (Starter) to €55,000+ (Premium); the popular Standard is €39,500 for 8 desks and 24 players. At €8–15 per player and a 50%+ margin, payback is typically under 12 months.
Is it loud? Will it disturb the lanes?+
The arena is designed as a separate room with its own light and sound. Standard acoustic advice is part of the floor plan; the show sound stays inside the room.
