Creative Works, an award-winning partner for designing, fabricating, installing, and operating immersive amusement experiences, announces a partnership with Puttshack, the leading social entertainment concept reimagining mini golf

Together, they are bringing Puttshack’s 9 Hole and Puttcade offerings to entertainment venues around the world. Puttshack has grown quickly since its launch in 2018, now operating 20 U.S. and 4 U.K. venues. Today it forms a partnership with Creative Works, which has a nearly 30-year track record of manufacturing and support in the amusement industry.

Now, the Puttshack experience is no longer limited to its physical locations. Puttshack’s 9 Hole course design, available for purchase exclusively through Creative Works, offers a variety of interactive mini golf holes that bring the competition to any space. Though named for its standard nine-hole layout, Puttshack 9 Hole can be tailored to include as many as 12 unique holes. This attraction expands the aspects of Puttshack that people love – like their nostalgic, interactive courses and Trackaball Technology – to new audiences.

“Puttshack is more than a game, bringing people of all ages together for fun and friendly competition,” said David Bagley, Puttshack CEO. “Our partnership with Creative Works is a natural next step in expanding our innovative mini golf experience to reach more people and places.”

Additionally, Puttshack is acquiring the patents and design elements of Lucky Putt, which was Creative Works’ tech-driven mini golf product for the last seven years. Puttshack will replace Lucky Putt, with Creative Works continuing to offer support and service to all existing Lucky Putt clients for the lifespan of the product.

“We are ecstatic to partner with Puttshack, bringing their signature Puttshack look and experience to operators all over the world,” said Armando Lanuti, President of Creative Works. “Blending their technology and design with our craftsmanship and support is a win for the industry.”

For those with smaller spaces or who want a different mini golf experience, Puttshack is also launching a new product called Puttcade. Available for purchase through Creative Works and other partners, it is a first-of-its-kind arcade game rooted in mini golf. With Puttcade, guests can play multiple, arcade-style games in a lounge setting that complements a dining experience.


Puttshack’s offerings will be available for play and purchase at the IAAPA Expo in Orlando, FL. From November 17-20, visit Creative Works’ booth (S4650) and Puttshack’s booth (W1943) at the industry-leading conference.
