The successful London entertainment brand will launch in Washington, D.C. and New York City this year, with more US location to come following the closure of a $20M funding round.
Swingers, London’s premier crazy golf club experience, announced today its expansion into the US following its huge success at its two large-scale locations in London’s City and West End. The move comes following a recent $20M raised in follow-on funding from Cain International. The financing will support a robust opening pipeline in the US.
The competitive socialising concept, pioneered by Swingers, takes crazy golf and combines it with exciting street food, quality crafted cocktails, a theatrical setting and a live DJ to create an incredible social experience for guests, all under one roof. Swingers will open its third location in Washington D.C.’s Dupont Circle on June 11th, with its fourth location coming shortly after in New York City’s Flatiron District.
Swingers Dupont Circle will welcome guests to their signature style crazy golf venue, inspired by the quintessentially English country golf clubs of the 1920s and featuring a clubhouse, five cocktail bars and some of Washington D.C.’s most respected street food vendors. Swingers Dupont Circle will feature immersive, multi-sensory, whimsical elements providing guests over 21 with a theatrical and high-end entertainment experience to enjoy with friends, family or colleagues.
Matt Grech-Smith, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder said of the expansion: “What started out as a five-month pop-up in a London warehouse in 2014, has since grown into two permanent venues in London, and an exciting development pipeline to come.Having spent a few years getting our blueprint for our immersive, competitive experience right, bringing it to the States was a natural next chapter and one that we think will capture the imagination and sense of fun of D.C. and New York City.”
