Today, mini golf has become even more popular, thanks to a trend of making courses that are not just fun to play but also super cool to look at and share on Instagram.

How to Start Your Own Mini Golf Tournament
Hosting a mini golf tournament is a fantastic way to gather friends and build a community of players who share your passion. To pull off a successful event, think about mixing it up with different tournament styles - maybe a week-long competition or a fun, one-day bracket-style tournament.
Get the word out with social media and local ads to drum up some excitement. Toss in some cool prizes, even simple ones, to add some more incentive. And, if your venue doesn’t serve food, don't forget to team up with local vendors or food trucks so everyone has snacks.
Go for a venue that ticks all the right boxes for your group, from favorite themes to fun course challenges. Whether it's crazy golf or adventure golf, there's a whole world of mini golf courses out there just waiting to be discovered by your group. Think about what matters most to you – the level of challenge, how cool the place looks, or how easy it is to get there – and pick the perfect course for your awesome event.
