Benvenuto! Bienvenidos! Irrashaimase! Bienvenue! Willkommen!

More than 95 million people enjoy bowling, in 90 countries spanning 6 continents! Bowling is one of the largest participatory sports in the world.

The Museum collects, preserves and displays the 5,000-year history that has led to this worldwide success. A key part of that story is the individual efforts of bowling's legends honored in our Halls of Fame.

The Museum closed its St. Louis location on November 8, 2008 in order to facilitate its move to the International Bowling Campus in Arlington, Texas. We anticipate the opening of the new Museum in early 2010.

We appreciate your continued interest and support as we make this exciting transition.

Welcome to the story of Bowling - the international sport!
