The RUC Turner Bowls Club

The RUC at Turner is a fully licensed club perfect your next group booking, dinner, or event! The RUC in Turner is a Canberra Suburban Icon.

From the outside a retro lawn bowls club, from the inside a casual and accessible place in Canberra's inner north to grab a bite to eat with family and friends, have a drink after work or meet up and watch a game. Open 7 days a week - we are the peoples club - we're your club.

Ever wanted a share in a racehorse on Everest Day? Now's your chance.

The RUC is putting together a Kosciuszko syndicate - and the more tickets we sell, the greater our chance of securing a slot in the race and a share of $2 million in prize money. Grab a ticket and you could be cheering on your own horse at one of the biggest days on the racing calendar.

On the day, we'll be hosting a watch party right here at the RUC - $5 draught beers, complimentary bar snacks and all the action live on the big screens. It's one of the best days of the year and there's no better place to watch it.

See Harry or Anna at the front desk to buy your tickets before 7 September, 2026.

Great to have the UC Stars FC out on the greens recently for their mid-season lawn bowls event 🎳⚽

Nothing like a day on the bowls to bring the squad together off the pitch. We love hosting our community partners and hope to see you back on the greens soon.

Racing, rugby, soccer, UFC - we've got it all on the big screens 📺

We asked the team what they love watching most at the RUC and everyone had a different answer. One thing they all agreed on though - it's always better with a cold one in hand.

Last Thursday's TAB ACT Kosciuszko Launch Party was a massive success - thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a great night. The energy in the room was something else.

Tickets are still on sale until 7 September and we want to get a RUC horse in the Kosciuszko. Every ticket gets you a share in the syndicate - see Harry or Anna to grab yours.
