The 36-hole indoor Adventure Golf venue at the Trafford Centre opened in 2008. It was one of the very first of the new wave of themed indoor adventure golf venues.

The Tiki Hut Trail and Temple Ruins Adventure courses were the 85th and 86th courses played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour back in 2009.

Following our move north in 2016 Paradise Island Adventure Golf became one of our local places to play and we've returned for fun and tournaments at PIAG Manchester a lot over the years.

I won the Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Championships in 2018 and Emily won the tournament in 2019.

Visit the Paradise Island Adventure Golf website for more information about the PIAG courses in Cheshire Oaks, Derby, Glasgow, Livingston, Manchester, Plymouth, Rushden Lakes and Sheffield.

An unexpected miniature golf course visit.

We found another miniature golf course on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour while driving to Altrincham this morning!

We took a more scenic route than usual and while driving through Sale spotted a sign for the 18-hole Pitch & Putt course at Woodheys Park.

Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Championship 2020

Unfortunately the annual Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Championship will not be taking place at the current time.

The annual large participation event was due to tee-off today and run until close of play on Sunday.

The decision is understandable, but we're really looking forward to playing in the event again in the future.

The team at Paradise Island Adventure Golf are hoping to reschedule the event later this year.

Emily won the Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Championship at the Trafford Centre in Manchester last year, while I won the 2018 competition.

Emily Gottfried, 2019 Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Champion

Emily scored a course record of 30 on the Temple Ruins layout - the course par is 42 - which was enough to fend off the challenge of thousands of other players who competed over the four-day event. Her round included seven holes-in-one on the 18-hole course.

Richard Gottfried, 2018 Paradise Island Adventure Golf Open Champion

The annual PIAG Open competition takes place across the brand's eight venues and is the largest Open minigolf tournament in the UK with thousands of players competing across three age categories at each venue.

All of the Paradise Island Adventure Golf centres have now reopened following lockdown and have social distancing measures in place.
