"Adventure Golf,” Colombo’s newest indoor mini golf course, opened to the public on June 15, 2023, at Arcade Independence Square
Adventure Golf is launched by ATOM, Sri Lanka’s largest provider of digital signage solutions and outdoor LED networks. The business, which has also shifted its focus to developing unique entertainment experiences, opens this mini golf course with the intention of introducing more curated, recreational experiences to the country.
At the opening, Ashan de Livera, co-founder of Atom Technologies and creator of the 18-hole mini course, explained that Adventure Golf was launched to enable everyone to experience the thrill of the game of golf and was developed in close consultation with pro golfers to ensure an authentic experience. “Golf is largely known as something that only those who are affluent can play, but we wanted to create something that anyone can try,” he shared, adding that, “the course is a lot harder than you think it is. It’s built to challenge players while also being enjoyable, and we intend to change the course frequently to keep things interesting.”
Mithun Perera, Sri Lanka’s leading pro-golfer, attended the launch of Adventure Golf and praised the introduction of indoor mini-golf and its public accessibility. He emphasized that Adventure Golf is a great way for beginners to get into the sport and develop their skills, without the need for expensive equipment or memberships. Perera also noted that mini-golf can be a fun activity for families and friends to enjoy together.
The mini-golf course is built with an around-the-world theme and poses a challenge to those who want to try it. To overcome the challenges and complete the 18-hole mini golf course, one would need to take their time, strategize, and think outside the box, making it a fun activity for both beginners and experienced golfers. The course also features interactive elements such as slides, tunnels, and moving obstacles that add to the excitement of the game. The company’s goal is to create a memorable experience for all who visit the course. In the future, the company hopes to host more events and introduce challenge cups to take the game up a notch.
