Excitement Builds in Orlando as PopStroke Plans New Mini Golf Locations
Orlando is buzzing with excitement as PopStroke, the innovative mini-golf franchise supported by the legendary Tiger Woods, gears up to launch not one, but two brand-new locations in Central Florida! This expansion marks a significant moment for the franchise, bringing its unique brand of golf and entertainment to even more fans in the area.
A New Experience on I-Drive
The crown jewel of this expansion is the upcoming location on I-Drive in Orlando, which is slated to open its doors in Fall 2026. Situated in a stunning two-story venue that promises to impress, this location will feature eye-catching architectural elements, including dramatic water features that will surely add to the ambiance.
This prime spot will be taking over the Bargain World Convention Center, conveniently located across the street from the popular Pirate’s Cove Adventure Golf and just a stone’s throw away from the world-renowned Universal Orlando Resort. With such a fantastic location, it’s bound to attract visitors and locals alike.
Hamlin Location Ready to Roll
But that’s not all! A second location is in the works in Winter Garden, specifically in Hamlin. Although the initial plans were announced back in Spring 2023, anticipation is reaching new heights as the opening date for this venue in August 2023 is eagerly awaited. While the specific date is still under wraps, it’s hard to ignore the buzz surrounding this exciting addition.
The Hamlin site, which is already under construction, is anticipated to be an entertainment oasis, featuring two professionally designed 18-hole putting courses, ensuring hours of fun for everyone willing to swing a club. But wait, the fun doesn’t stop there! Guests can look forward to a delightful full-service bar and restaurant, along with outdoor games and even a playground for the little ones.
Accessibility for Everyone
Inclusivity is a top priority for PopStroke, with plans for one of the two courses at Hamlin to be fully ADA compliant. This means anyone, regardless of their mobility, including those in wheelchairs and with strollers, will have access to the fun. Such dedication to accessibility demonstrates the franchise’s commitment to creating a welcoming environment for families of all shapes and sizes.
More Than Just Mini Golf
At its core, PopStroke is all about more than just mini-golf. It’s designed to be a family-friendly atmosphere that caters to guests of all ages, from toddlers to seniors. The goal is to create lasting memories while ensuring that fun is at the forefront of everything they do.
One modern touch that sets PopStroke apart is its dedicated app, allowing customers to keep track of their scores, order food and drink, and enhance their overall experience during their visits. This tech-savvy approach promises to make a visit feel seamless and enjoyable for guests.
Existing Locations and Future Aspirations
Currently, PopStroke operates eight locations across Florida, with one already up and running in Waterford Lakes near UCF. This new wave of openings is part of a broader plan to expand to a total of 13 venues, which has fans of the franchise buzzing with excitement.
As the days pass and construction continues at both sites, it’s clear that PopStroke is on a mission to create a vibrant, engaging space where friends and families can gather, play, and make those cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
So, mark your calendars and prepare for some mini-golf magic in Central Florida. With PopStroke’s commitment to high-quality fun, delicious food, and a welcoming environment, it’s bound to be a fantastic addition to the local landscape!
