The Punk Rock Bowling and Music Festival is an annual outdoor punk rock festival held since 1999 mixing bowling tournament and live music performances. [1]
The festival was first held in 1999 at the now-defunct Huntridge Theater and original based as a casual get-together bowling tournament for punk rock musicians and music industry people. [2] [3]
The live music components grew over the years into a full-fledge event from 2010 onwards including a 3-days outdoor music festival with additional night clubs performances, pool-parties, poker and bowling tournaments and other associated events.
