FECs
Taking visitors on an adventure
Park World hears from Gary Jenkins, head of sales for the UK at City Golf Europe
D
ay or night attractions such as mini golf, adventure golf, blacklight golf or escape rooms provide what we like to call a ‘giggling gap filler’, a period of time dedicated to a socially competitive challenge that blends in perfectly with life. From our experience, the most common theme is taking ‘time out’ and having a fun experience together, whether that be as a family or a group of friends or work colleagues. FECs meet those needs. FECs are long-established and highly popular - but the format is certainly evolving. Smaller standalone FECs have grown in confidence with super styling and branding so the two-hour attraction leaves the customer feeling they have had a true theme park-style experience. City Golf Europe understands the importance of bringing out the ‘Disney’ in all installations to maximise the potential of its Adventure Golf and Mission Room products. We all have a competitive streak lurking somewhere - and we believe that will always shape future trends and potential projects. We all want our chance to shine, and the art of activities such as throwing a dart, bowling a ball, or swinging a club will always provide that opportunity. When it comes to trying ‘something new’ and finding a skill we didn’t know we had - mini golf is a perfect way for people to do this. Looking ahead, City Golf Europe is investing heavily in interactive technology as the mini golf entertainment industry grows at a rapid pace - much like the world of technology itself.
At City Golf Europe, we design and build challenging mini golf courses with undulating fairways, obstacles, and water hazards. Our main mission is to provide fun and exciting products for all end users and to ensure our customers a profitable investment. We have now launched an exciting new product, Quest Mission Rooms,
a state-of-the-art multi escape room product which is both operator- and customer-friendly. We installed our first facility in Germany last year, with great success, and this spring we opened a new facility in northern Sweden. The Mission Rooms are a fully automatic version of the escape room idea, testing visitors to their limits, urging them forward to conquer the challenges that await them in a variety of tasks.

Aside from Mission Rooms product as our latest offering, City Golf Europe is leading the way in the manufacture of Adventure Golf courses across Europe. Starting with the hugely popular City Kompakt ‘Ready to go’ Mini Adventure Golf through to our exciting indoor Blacklight Courses and right up to the fully themed Adventure Golf product, at City Golf Europe we’re focused on providing customers with an exciting range of mini golf attractions to suit all budgets.
