The new family-friendly golf playground we didn’t know we needed.
If your kids love mini golf, your teens are obsessed with gaming, and the grown-ups secretly wish they were better at real golf, Golf Park Adelaide might just be the perfect middle ground.
Opening later this month (Feb 2026), Golf Park blends play, technology, and real golf skills into one big indoor experience.
So what actually is Golf Park Adelaide?
Part putting playground, part high-tech golf hub.
At the heart of the venue is one of the largest indoor putting greens in the world and this is what kids (and competitive parents) will love. It’s open, interactive and made for trying trick shots, and just having fun with a golf ball in a low-pressure way.
Alongside that are high-tech golf bays, where players can hit real golf balls into virtual courses and games. For older kids and teens, this feels more like gaming than sport but they’re still learning coordination, aim and technique while they play.
It’s much more “golf playground” than formal driving range.
How is this different to other golf venues and activities in Adelaide?
From what we can see so far, here’s how Golf Adelaide will fit within the existing golf experiences in Adelaide
- SHANX = outdoor family mini golf
- West Beach Mini Golf / Barossa Bowland = traditional outdoor mini golf
- Holey Moley = party mini golf
- X-Golf = golf simulator hub.
- Golf Park = family golf playground with simulators and real golf play.
There’s also an onsite cafe and bar and will also offer Birthday Parties and beginner golf lessons and golf coaching.
Golf Park Adelaide looks like it’s going to be an indoor, all-weather family activity space that mixes sport and play. A mix between a playground, arcade and a sporting venue.
We’ll let you know more when we’ve been for a look – stay tuned!

Now with three locations across Adelaide, you can forget about novelty clown heads and spinning windmills here. Unlike anything in the Southern Hemisphere, SHANX Mini Golf looks exactly like a standard golf course — only it’s been shrunk down to miniature size. Created as a way of making golf accessible to anyone and everyone, no matter your age, gender or skill level. SHANX Regency Park sits on the edge of the Regency Park Golf Course, SHANX Little Para is on the same site as the Little Para Golf Course and new in 2025, you'll find SHANX South Lakes at the South Lakes Golf Course in Goolwa. You can watch the pros go by while you putt your way around the eighteen holes. You’ll come across bunkers, twists and turns as you make your way across the green, and each hole has two courses to choose from: and easier option for those just getting started, or the SHANX Course for those looking for a challenge. Everything is provided, including a club and ball per person as well as a scoring card for the group. SHANX @ Regency Park @ Little Para and @ South Lakes are Australia’s best mini golf courses…

Ahhh mini golf, miniature golf, putt-putt, mini putt, 'the place where dad gets angry and over-competitive'. Known by many names and enjoyed by all (except parents of 6 year olds who think they are playing hockey and belts balls at a million miles an hour all over the place), this shrunken down version of golf is renowned the world over as the ideal place for families to set aside their differences and to come together in joyful and friendly competition for an hour or so. That is obviously a total lie, with this in fact being the area in which the competitive beasts within most kids is awoken, with the slightest 'bending' of the rules usually being loudly called out, resulting in threats of 'behave or there will be no mcflurry on the way home'. All that friendly family banter aside, we love us some mini golf. From the whacky course designs to fact all ages can have a go, there is so much to love about this as an ideal family friendly activity. You just need to curb that one person in your family who becomes a little bit too aggressive and competitive with club and ball in their…

It is no secret we are huge fans of X Golf, have been for years. Adelaide's premiere golf simulator venue was the perfect spot for a hit of indoor golf whilst enjoying a feed and your fave beverage (cough *pirate life* cough). With the partnership with Hey Caddy a few years back adding everyone's favourite family activity, mini golf, X Golf has quickly turned into an all round awesome family venue! When we heard a massive new addition to the club was opening at West Lakes (Just opposite Westfield and above the Mosaic Hotel) we couldn't wait to check it out.....and boy were we in for a treat! Firstly, it is enormous. Sporting a full 18 hole mini golf course thanks to Hey Caddy, as mini golf fanciers we can genuinely say this is the best course in the state. Epic holes that are super fun to play, all sporting a theme or location, which are challenging enough for the serious mini golfers but also easy for the whole fam to have a hit. We took our sport loving 2 year old (who loves to grab a little club and have a bash) who was able to easily use the…
