It is official: The 2025 Greater Iowa Bowling Association 11thFrame.com Open at Cherry Lanes inside the Diamond Jo Casino in Dubuque, Iowa, will be Aug. 15-17.

The weekend again will feature a Friday sweeper, and the tournament Saturday and Sunday will feature a maximum field of 156 entries that annually sells out within a few days of entries opening.

GIBA administrator Joe Engelkes typically releases the flyer in late June and that is when entries open.

The Holiday Inn Dubuque, 450 Main Street, again has a room block available with a preferred rate of $142 — yes prices have gone up and Dubuque has a lot of events in the summer.

The 11th Frame Open room block is only available until Aug. 1 and can be accessed at this link.

The hotel's phone number is 563-556-2000.
