Royal Pin Woodland is located on the northeast side of Indianapolis, in the Keystone area near the corner of Keystone Avenue and East 96th Street, serving families and groups from Carmel, Fishers, Zionsville, and beyond.
A Trio of Thrills Under One Roof
The heart of Royal Pin Woodland beats with three main attractions that keep guests coming back. The center features 70 state-of-the-art bowling lanes with automatic scoring, making it one of the largest bowling venues in the city. For those who prefer a more tactical challenge, the two-story laser tag arena is built to accommodate up to 34 players at once, offering plenty of room for high-energy missions and friendly competition. Adding to the mix are two beautifully designed 18-hole mini golf courses, each with its own character and flow, perfect for a relaxed round with friends or family. Beyond the main attractions, the arcade houses over 40 games with a redemption center, and a Hologate virtual reality arena adds a modern twist to the experience. Whether someone is in the mood to roll a strike, navigate a dark arena, or putt their way through 18 holes, there is always something to do.
Scenarios, Celebrations, and Group Gatherings
The Pick Two birthday package, exclusive to Royal Pin Woodland, lets guests choose any two activities from bowling, laser tag, and mini golf, making it a versatile option for parties with diverse tastes. For younger crowds, the Strike Package offers 90 minutes of bowling with a party host, decorated table, and arcade game cards for the birthday child and guests. Teen parties come with cosmic bowling options, pizza, and soda, creating a social atmosphere that resonates with older kids. For corporate outings and group events, the venue offers fully customizable packages that can include catering from the in-house kitchen, full-service bars, private event spaces, and a dedicated events team that handles setup, timing, and coordination. Fundraisers, team-building days, family reunions, and school events are all regularly hosted here, with the flexibility to accommodate small gatherings or large-scale events with hundreds of guests.
Beyond the Game: Lounges, Bars, and Bites
When it is time to refuel, guests can grab a bite at the full-service café, which offers easy ordering through six self-serve kiosks. The menu includes pizza, breadsticks, wings, hot sandwiches, fries, and more. Two bars on site, Beer30 and Beer30 Too, provide a place for adults to kick back with a drink while keeping an eye on the action. The facility features multiple lounges and a private boutique area equipped with projection screens and a privacy wall, making it suitable for meetings, presentations, or semi-private celebrations. The bar lounge is outfitted with high-definition TVs, creating a comfortable spot to relax before or after a game. A pro shop is also available on site for bowling enthusiasts looking for gear or advice.
