The overview
Bowlo is a complete, production website and booking platform for a bowling & arcade entertainment venue in Riyadh. Customers explore the venue, check live availability, and book lanes online in Arabic or English, with paid VIP reservations handled end-to-end. Behind the scenes, the venue's team manages pricing, bookings, offers, page content, and photos themselves — no developer needed for day-to-day changes. The site is live at www.bowlobowling.com.
Visit live project01 / The challenge
The venue had no online presence and handled every booking manually. They needed a polished, Arabic-first website (with full right-to-left layout) that could take real reservations and payments online — while letting non-technical staff keep prices, content, photos, and availability up to date on their own, without relying on a developer for every edit.
02 / The response
A modern Next.js website backed by a managed cloud database. Every piece of public content is editable from a custom dashboard, so the team controls pricing, offers, page copy, photos, and availability in real time. VIP reservations are paid online through a secure hosted checkout, and confirmed bookings generate an Apple Wallet pass. The entire experience is fully bilingual, with instant language switching and proper right-to-left and left-to-right handling.
