Mini-golf is a fun, accessible recreational activity enjoyed by people of all ages. With its colorful courses, whimsical obstacles, and creative themes, it offers a playful twist on traditional golf. Unlike standard golf, mini golf requires no prior experience, making it ideal for families, friends, and even date nights. The game encourages lighthearted competition while providing a relaxed environment for socializing. Its appeal lies in its simplicity, affordability, and the excitement of navigating unique challenges like windmills, ramps, and tunnels. Whether indoors or outdoors, mini golf provides an enjoyable escape, combining skill, luck, and entertainment in a compact setting.

Attention mini-golf enthusiasts! If you’re competitive and would love a chance to compete in a tournament for a $10,000 cash prize, check out this opportunity from Holey Moley Mini Golf.

Austin, TX – Hot off dominating Australia’s mini-golf circuit, the  Holey Moley Open swings into the U.S. this spring across all three Texas locations. Not an average mini-golf tournament, the Holey Moley Open is a multi-day competition that will take place across Austin, Houston, and San Antonio, beginning with City Championships on March 25. Teams of 4 will compete across 9 exciting mini-golf holes to see who will be crowned the city champions. Winning teams advance to the State Final at Holey Moley Austin on April 8 for a shot at a $10,000 cash prize. Beyond the competitive action on the course, spectators can enjoy live DJs, dance under confetti showers, savor delicious food/drink specials, and meet Caddy’s in full costume slinging cocktails — making the Holey Moley Open this year’s most high-energy mini-golf experience.

Registration for a chance to compete began on February 25 and ends on March 10. Teams are made up of four golfers, and players must be at least 21 years to participate. There is no cost to submit a team registration form. Of the submissions, Holey Moley will select 60 teams to compete across the state. Winning teams at the March 25 City Championships will be offered travel accommodations to compete at the State Final in Austin on April 8. The State Final will consist of 18 holes (two courses). 

Each team will play a round of nine holes, with a maximum of +6 strokes per hole to be kept score by an official caddy. Penalties will be dealt for off-course balls as well as interference, and in the event of a tiebreaker, one lucky team member will play an extra hole. The team with the lowest combined score wins.

San Antonio, TX-  The highly anticipated Holey Moley Golf Club is thrilled to announce its official San Antonio opening this Friday, December 6.

Known for its innovative approach to leisure, Australian-based parent company Funlab has already brought Holey Moley’s unique brand of fun to Denver, Austin, Houston, and San Francisco, creating a haven where nostalgia, social energy, and analog entertainment collide. 

The San Antonio location will have signature favorite holes like Smells Like Tee Spirit, a journey through a vintage tape collection, Making It Rain, a battle of the elements to escape a wind vortex spinning “dollar bills” through the air, and Ferris Wheeler’s Day Off, a game of chance through multiple levels, evading the cars of a rotating Ferris wheel to a hole in one. It will also have new and unique holes like Par Tee Time, a mission to jump over red Solo cups in a play on the classic party game Beer Pong, and Tee-haw, a Wild West themed hole behind ‘pars’ with Instagram worthy opportunities to capture pics in ‘Wanted’ posters and surprise sound effects like explosions, quacks, moos, and farts. 

The Caddyshack offers guests a chance to refuel with Texan takes on Americana classics, like BBQ Brikey Loaded Fries with cheddar, chili queso and slaw; Taco Salad with romaine lettuce, fresh tomato, black beans, Texas ground beef, cheddar, guac, sour cream, and fire roasted salsa; and Grilled Elote Corn Ribs with cotija cheese, garlic aioli, Tajín and lime. The menu also includes brick-oven pizzas, sandwiches, salads, and more.

For drinks, signature cocktails are served in playful vessels, like the Rub A Dub in the Tub with gin, Aperol, lime, and peach in a bathtub-shaped cup, topped with prosecco “bubbles,” dried rose petals, and rubber duckies; Pop Till You Drop with vodka, lime, watermelon, and bubbles served in a ceramic unicorn, and Cadillac Disco, a shareable large format cocktail served in a disco ball with reposado tequila, Grand Marnier with lime. San Antonio exclusives include the new Big Texas, a frozen slushie featuring Big Red cream soda and vanilla, with the option to add Tito’s vodka for a boozy treat. Guests can also enjoy signature shooters in cowboy boot shot glasses, local beers, classic cocktails and zero-proof options.
