Utah FurBowl

Utah FurBowl

Utah FurBowl is a furry bowling meet in the Salt Lake valley, held in spring and fall at Olympus Hills Bowling Lanes in Holladay. It began in 2019 and has its own announcement channel on Telegram and a registration site. The last FurBowl took place on April 6, 2025, and no new date has been announced since then.

What to Expect

Past FurBowls ran on a Sunday afternoon from 1 pm to 3 pm, with the group booking a block of lanes. Bowlers check in with the organizer on arrival and get a wristband for bowling shoes at the front desk. Fursuiters can bowl, but everyone on the lanes must wear the alley's bowling shoes, so feetpaws and hooves stay off the lanes. Guests who come only to hang out can socialize with the group without bowling.

How to Get Tickets

Bowlers registered and paid in advance on the Utah FurBowl site, by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Cash App. Registration usually closed on the Friday before the event, so the organizer could confirm lane numbers with the alley. Guests who are not bowling paid nothing and did not need to register. Watch the Utah FurBowl Telegram channel for the next event.

How to Get There

Every FurBowl from 2023 to 2025 was held at Olympus Hills Bowling Lanes in Holladay, on the east side of the Salt Lake valley.
