900 capacity
Founded in 1988 when John Blancher bought the Mid City Lanes bowling alley and added a stage, Rock'n'Bowl has been mixing live music with bowling since its first show on November 2, 1989. The venue moved to its current 3016 South Carrollton Avenue location in 2009, expanding to an 18-lane alley with a 900-person capacity music hall. Five nights a week the lanes fill with the sounds of zydeco, Cajun, blues, R&B, and brass bands from across Louisiana. The combination of dancing, bowling, and cold beer has made it a beloved New Orleans institution and a must-visit destination in the Mid-City neighborhood.
