When it comes to planning a group celebration that delivers fun, energy, and unforgettable memories, most people default to the same tired options. But there’s a better way to party…and it involves cocktails, competition, and crazy golf.
Enter Swingers: the experience-driven venue that’s taking the U.S. by storm and redefining what it means to go out with friends, coworkers, or clients. With locations in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Las Vegas, Swingers is quickly becoming one of the top things to book in these cities for group celebrations of all kinds.
We’re talking crazy golf, arcade games, next-level street food, live DJs, and cocktails served in high-energy, Instagrammable venues. Think adult playground…but make it chic.
Swingers started as a pop-up in Shoreditch, London in 2014, the brainchild of co-founders Matt Grech-Smith and Jeremy Simmonds. What began as an experiment to mix mini golf with gourmet food and craft cocktails quickly exploded in popularity, leading to permanent locations in London and an ambitious expansion to the U.S.
Now with venues in Dupont Circle (DC), NoMad (NYC), and Mandalay Bay (Vegas), Swingers is delivering unforgettable experiences in three of the hottest cities for group travel and nightlife.
At its core, Swingers is powered by a simple but genius idea:
“Life is more fun when there’s a little friendly competition…especially when it comes with cocktails.”
Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, hosting a team outing, planning a bachelorette, or just rounding up your crew for a night out, Swingers is designed to bring people together. Here’s how:
1. It’s built for groups
Unlike restaurants or clubs where your group might splinter off, Swingers keeps everyone connected and entertained from the first tee to the last drink. It’s ideal for groups of friends, coworkers, bachelor/bachelorette parties, and more.
2. It’s unexpected
Mini golf and mixology aren’t usually in the same sentence…but that’s the magic. You’ll surprise your guests with something playful, competitive, and incredibly polished.
3. It’s Instagram-worthy (but not try-hard)
Every corner of the venue is designed with personality, from neon signs to lush greenery and theatrical lighting. Your camera roll will thank you.
4. It’s adults-only
Every Swingers venue is 21+, which means the atmosphere stays elevated (no kids running through your golf game or melting down mid-meal).
Located in the heart of Manhattan, Swingers NoMad is the place to bring your crew before a night out or after a day exploring NYC. Highlights include Emmy Squared Pizza, Fonda Tacos, and a dessert game strong enough to distract you from your scorecard.
This flagship U.S. venue was the first to open in the States (June 2021) and features both crazy golf and classic Carnival arcade games. Perfect for birthday parties or post-work celebrations, it also hosts some of DC’s best street food vendors.
New to the Strip and already one of the most unique things to do in Las Vegas, Swingers brings its outrageous mix of entertainment to Sin City. Carnival games, Emmy Squared Pizza, and DJs keep the party going long after your golf game is over.
Swingers is not just another “activity venue.” It’s a full-blown experience: one that combines nostalgia, nightlife, competition, and community. Whether you’re celebrating something big or just want to shake up your group’s usual routine, it’s hands-down one of the top things to book in DC, NYC, or Vegas.
So the next time someone in your group says “What should we do tonight?”, send them the link to Swingers. Then grab a cocktail, grab a putter, and let the games begin.
