Palembang, Indonesia

November 16 - 24, 2019

Welcome to Palembang, the capital city of South Sumatra and a city of over 1.6 million people, with an interesting history dating back at least as far as the 7th century. It is 39 years since the Bowling World Cup was last in Indonesia. When the tournament was held in Jakarta in 1980, the great Paeng Nepomuceno of the Philippines won the men’s event for the second time, while Jean Gordon of Canada carried off the women’s title. Finally 2019 will see the event return to the country, from November 16 to 24, 2019, in the 40-lane center which is part of the huge and impressive Jakabaring Sport City, the venue of the 2018 Asian Games.
