Shawnee, Oklahoma
FireLake Bowling Center is an entertainment destination where bowling, televised sports, music, and events create an engaging guest experience. The entertainment AV upgrade includes new projection systems, distributed audio, entertainment lighting, and centralized controls supporting bowling operations and events. The new systems enhance television viewing, music playback, and dynamic lighting effects to create a more immersive atmosphere for guests.
The audio and video are central to the customer experience. Guests can watch television programming throughout the venue while also enjoying clear, consistent music coverage across the facility.
“Watching television and listening to music are important parts of the bowling experience. The venue also required special event capabilities, including dynamic lighting and atmospheric effects such as fog to improve themed bowling events.”
— Ford AV Project Team
A Complete Entertainment Audio, Video, and Lighting Upgrade
Ford AV provided and installed a fully integrated AV and lighting solution throughout the bowling center. The upgraded system included new projectors, projection support equipment, distributed speakers, subwoofers, lighting fixtures, hazers, and centralized control technology.
The video system included four laser projectors above the bowling lanes and aligned with the facility’s existing projection screens. The upgraded system also incorporated video switching and signal distribution equipment to support multiple video sources throughout the venue.
Suspended speakers and subwoofers were also placed above the bowling lanes, along with additional in-ceiling speakers distributed throughout the concourse, lounge, snack bar, game room, and other public areas. The system provides consistent audio coverage throughout the facility while also delivering enhanced low-frequency sound in the bowling area.
Ford AV also installed programmable lighting fixtures, laser lighting effects, and atmospheric hazers to support entertainment-focused bowling events. These systems were integrated into a centralized control platform that allowed staff to manage audio, video, and lighting presets from a touchscreen control panel.
