Ripley’s Crazy Golf will tee off at Icon Park
A Ripley’s-themed miniature golf course is planned for Icon Park on Orlando’s International Drive.
The course — named Ripley’s Crazy Golf — will be an indoor, glow-in-the-dark experience with “surprising sights that make each hole feel like its own otherworldly adventure,” a Ripley news release says.
“We’ve taken everything people love about our attractions, imagination and oddities, and brought it to the putting green. It’s outrageous. It’s unpredictable. It’s crazy in the best way possible!” Jim Pattison Jr., president of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! World Entertainment, said in the release.
The mini-golf course will be located next door to the Museum of Illusions at Icon Park, and it’s expected to open in the winter of 2025.
There’s currently a Ripley’s Crazy Golf attraction operating in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Tickets cost $18.99 at that location, and there are bundled-ticket offers for nearby Ripley attractions.
Ripley already has two attractions open on I-Drive, a Believe It or Not Museum (the building that looks like it’s going into a sinkhole) and the neighboring Mirror Maze attraction. They are less than a block from the future mini-golf course. Orlando is also home to the corporate headquarters of Ripley Entertainment, which has more than 100 attractions worldwide.
