New King Pins tenpin bowling & entertainment centres are opening in Bristol and Glasgow.
The two existing locations - both in Manchester - are home to indoor mini golf courses, so it'll be interesting to see if the new King Pins also have mini golf on offer when they open.
The Manchester Arndale Centre will soon be home to a Mini Golf course at King Pins Bowling.
King Pins Bowling is opening its second location in the city following the Trafford Centre venue. The new King Pins opens at the Arndale Centre on Friday 17th May, and one of the games there will be Mini Golf.
Check out the King Pins website for more information on the indoor venue.
The King Pins Mini Golf course will be another local course for us to check out on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
We haven't been to Northern Ireland for a fair few years and the course at the Brunswick Moviebowl will be another to add to our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.
There's a crazy golf, tenpin bowling and laser tag centre in Canterbury, Kent.
The crazy golf, tenpin bowling and laser tag centre on Wincheap Industrial Estate in Canterbury, Kent has re-opened as Canterbury Leisure. The venue was formerly known as Play Islands.

With the boom in the popularity of minigolf and the growth in new courses, a number of tenpin bowling centres have added minigolf, crazy golf and adventure golf courses.
Traditionally the two leisure activities have been quite separate and distinct, with people choosing to do either one or other and most operators running either a minigolf course or tenpin bowling centre.
We're fans of both games and we've been to quite a few places on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour that have both entertainment options.
Tenpin bowling is an area of the indoor entertainment industry that has been hit by lockdown rules during the coronavirus pandemic with re-openings being pushed back in England.
We enjoy playing tenpin bowling, bowlingo and skittles and it'll be nice when we're able to safely play again in the future.

A visit to the Putters Adventure Golf course at the Superbowl in Warrington.
We had a very nice day out in Warrington, Cheshire on Saturday and visited Superbowl Warrington in the Golden Square shopping centre.
The 12-hole indoor Adventure Golf course has a funfair and circus theme and looks amazing. We've played miniature golf courses at funfairs, theme parks and at Circus Circus in Las Vegas but the Putters Adventure Golf layout in Warrington was the first we've played that has gone full on with the theme.
When we arrived we had to go to the tenpin bowling reception desk to ask to play. The member of staff who came over to the minigolf reception was really good and explained the layout. It was also a nice touch to be able to store our big coats and bags for free in the lockers next to the course.
The first hole eases you in by playing the Tea Cups. You then move on to the Dodgems, before riding the Carousel.
