text: # Lawn bowls at the 2014 Commonwealth Games
  
  Lawn bowls at the 2014 Commonwealth Games were held at the Kelvingrove Lawn Bowls Centre in Glasgow, Scotland from 24 July to 1 August 2014.
  
  Lawn bowls is one of ten core sports at the Commonwealth Games and has been continuously held at every Games since the 1930 British Empire Games, with the exception of the 1966 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Kingston, Jamaica. The men's and women's fours events returned to the program for the first time since the 2002 Commonwealth Games and two new para-sports events made their debut at these Games.
