If you’re after something a little different in Newcastle, tickets to Junkyard Golf Club could be just the ticket. This isn’t your typical mini golf experience; it’s a wild, creative, and slightly chaotic adventure through eccentric courses that mix humor, horror, and a touch of nostalgia. Whether you’re just looking for a chilled way to hang out or want to challenge your friends on some truly bizarre courses, this spot is worth considering.
What really shines about Junkyard Golf is the imagination poured into each course—from creepy clowns and pirate pigs to toxic volcanoes and a basement rave. Plus, with the option to play 9 or 18 holes, you can tailor your experience to how much fun (and potential chaos) you want to pack into your day. The vibe is casual, with plenty of bars around to keep your drinks flowing, making it a perfect spot for a relaxed afternoon or an unusual after-work outing.
That said, a potential drawback is the venue’s age restrictions—kids under 18 are only allowed before 7 pm on certain days—and it can get quite busy, especially on weekends. If you’re after a quieter, more relaxed game, this might not be your best choice. But if you’re up for a lively, quirky challenge with friends or a group, Junkyard Golf offers something that’s both amusing and memorable.
All in all, this experience is best suited for groups of friends, couples, or anyone who appreciates a good laugh and doesn’t mind a bit of chaos. It’s not a serious golf outing, but rather a playful escape into a junkyard of fun.

When you arrive at Junkyard Golf Club, you’ll be greeted with a burst of eccentricity. The venue is a lively, graffiti-covered space that sets the tone for the quirky courses inside. You can go any time during opening hours on your booked day—so there’s flexibility to fit it into your schedule. After redeeming your voucher, you’ll select from three courses—Basement Horror Rave, Circus FEAR-ground, Polluted Paradise, or 90s Garage Scrapyard—depending on your ticket and preference.
Each course has its own theme and set of challenges. For example, the Basement Horror Rave is designed to make you watch your head as you navigate through a twisted, spooky rave scene. Meanwhile, the Circus FEAR-ground takes you past creepy clowns and juggling horrors. The Polluted Paradise offers a more tropical, yet toxic, vibe with hazards to dodge along the way. The Garage Scrapyard feels like a nostalgic trip to the 90s, with a mini roof slide that’s especially fun.
The courses aren’t just about putting the ball into the hole—they’re mini adventures. Expect to slide off roofs, dodge animatronic creatures, and pass through bizarre scenes that will make you laugh or gasp. The entire setup is colorful, chaotic, and designed to entertain, not to test your golf skills.
