Liverpool: Junkyard Golf Tickets for 9 or 18 Holes
Liverpool turns golf into controlled chaos. At Junkyard Golf Club Liverpool, I like how the junkyard themed holes play like a silly story, and I also like that everything you need to play is ready for you, clubs included. The one thing to keep in mind, some course carpets can feel old and worn, which can make putting a bit less smooth than you’d hope.
You can go at any time during opening hours on your chosen date, then redeem your voucher when you arrive. Pick one course for a 9-hole ticket, or pick two for an 18-hole session, and you’ll get to choose your vibe from several weird courses and characters like Dirk, Bozo, Pablo, and Gary, plus there are bars around the venue if you want a drink mid-round.

Junkyard Golf Club Liverpool, a street-level day of themed mini golf

Junkyard Golf Club Liverpool sits in the Merseyside area, right in Liverpool city centre, and it’s the kind of activity that works when you want something fun that does not need a big plan. Think mini golf, but with cartoon horror and comedy props, loud music energy, and plenty of visual gags between holes.
You’re not just walking from hole to hole. You’re moving through a junkyard universe with different course themes and different scares, some silly, some more gross-out than scary. If you like your activities a bit odd, this is a good match.
And it’s built for flexibility. Your ticket is for a 9-hole or 18-hole experience on a date you select, and you can go at whatever time works best during opening hours. That makes it easy to fit into a day that already includes museums, shopping streets, or a pub stop.
One practical note. The venue is cashless, so plan on using your card. If you rely on cash, you’ll want to sort that out before you arrive.

Redeeming your voucher and choosing your 9 or 18 hole route

Your meeting point is simple: go to Junkyard Golf Club and redeem your voucher there. Once inside, you’ll redeem it for entry tickets, then choose your course(s).
Here’s how the experience is structured based on what you purchase:
- With a 9-hole ticket, you play one course.
- With an 18-hole ticket, you play two courses.
On-site, the club offers multiple themed courses to match different tastes. The names you can choose from include:
- Basement Horror Rave
- Circus FEAR-ground
- Polluted Paradise
- 90s Garage Scrapyard
The club also sets you up with a choice of names such as Dirk, Bozo, Pablo, and Gary. You’ll use that as part of the course experience, and it adds a bit of playfulness to the whole thing. It’s not a guided tour with a serious lecture. It’s more like a game layer that helps you lean into the theme.
Good to know for planning. The experience is listed as 1 day, and you can go at any time during opening hours on your selected date. Check availability for starting times, but the overall idea is that you’re not locked into one exact minute.
Course guide: Basement Horror Rave, Circus FEAR-ground, Polluted Paradise, and 90s Garage Scrapyard

What makes this place fun is how the holes try to tell a story with junkyard visuals. You’re not just counting strokes. You’re reacting to props, hazards, and jokes designed to make you laugh even when you miss a putt.
Basement Horror Rave, don’t lose your head
This is the one that leans most toward spooky chaos. The vibe is a horror-themed rave scenario, and the course includes a warning-style challenge: be careful not to lose your head on the Basement Horror Rave course.
Expect it to feel like a mini level from a horror-comedy video game, with the course layout designed to mess with your confidence. You’ll still use the same basics, scorecard, clubs, balls, but the course theme aims to distract you in a fun way.

Circus FEAR-ground, clowns and a carousel of fear
If you’re into creepy-but-goofy circus humor, Circus FEAR-ground is the pick. This theme features murderous creepy clowns and a carousel of fear element that plays into the whole circus-meets-chaos idea.
This course is ideal if you want scares that feel more like slapstick. The course name already tells you the tone, and the visuals follow through.
Polluted Paradise, cage-fighting bears and toxic volcanoes
Polluted Paradise is where the weird animal and environmental jokes show up. You’ll face cage fighting grizzly bears, toxic volcanoes, and pirate pigs.
This is a great match if you want your mini golf to feel like a cartoon gone wrong. The hazards and obstacles are built for spectacle, so even if your ball strategy is shaky, the experience stays entertaining.
90s Garage Scrapyard, slide off the roof through a garage
This one sounds like the most physical-feeling of the courses. You slide off the roof of a smashed up mini through a 90s garage.
If you like the mix of motion and props, this is likely the course you’ll talk about afterward. The theme also feels nostalgic in a strange way, like it’s stealing your attention with fake 90s garage energy while you try to get your next putt right.
Choosing your character, Dirk, Bozo, Pablo, or Gary
You’ll take your twisted journey through the junkyard while choosing from names such as Dirk, Bozo, Pablo, and Gary. The names are part of the experience setup, so you can pick whichever one fits your group’s mood.
It’s a small detail, but it helps make the day feel more like an activity with a narrative layer rather than just random holes lined up in a room.
9 holes vs 18 holes, how to pace your time without rushing
Since the ticket options are one course for 9 holes and two courses for 18 holes, your decision comes down to how much variety you want.
If you choose 9 holes, you can focus on one course theme end to end. That’s a smart plan if:
- you’re tight on time during a sightseeing day
- you want a short, playful break
- you’re going with people who might get bored with too much in one sitting
If you choose 18 holes, you get two course themes. This is where the experience really feels like a full event. You’ll have more chances to laugh at different styles of obstacles, and you’ll get a better sense of the club’s overall personality. It’s also the better choice if your group wants to debate which course was funniest and who had the worst putting luck.
Either way, remember what’s included: score cards, golf clubs, and balls. That means you can show up and start without extra rentals or prep.
Drinks, music, and the cashless practicalities you should not forget
One of the surprisingly helpful details is the bar setup. Bars are scattered around the venue, and it’s easy to grab a drink while you take breaks between holes. The vibe is part entertainment venue, part game room, so a cocktail does not feel out of place.
The club also runs cashless. That’s not just a small policy. It’s a real planning point. Bring a major debit or credit card so you can pay for drinks on-site.
Also watch the entry rules. The venue uses a Challenge 25 policy, and you’ll be asked to present a physical ID to enter. Even if you’re not planning to drink, it can affect getting through the door.
Good to know for language comfort. The host or greeter is in English, so you should be able to sort out questions quickly.
The biggest tradeoffs: carpet wear and putting feel
This is where I think you’ll want to set expectations. One review noted that course carpets can require updating, with old and worn surfaces causing issues when trying to putt the ball.
That does not ruin the fun, but it changes how you should play. If you expect clean, modern putting greens, you might feel frustrated when the ball doesn’t roll quite the way you expect.
My advice is to treat the course like a themed game more than a precision sport. Plan for slightly unpredictable ball behavior. Pick a steady pace, and do not overcorrect after every putt.
Age rules for kids and teens, especially for Friday and Saturday
If you’re traveling with young players, check the schedule rules carefully. Guests under 18 are allowed on Sunday to Thursday before 7:00 PM, with the last golf slot at 6:00 PM, as long as they’re accompanied by someone 18 or older. Under-18 guests are not permitted at any time on Friday or Saturday.
That matters because it affects which day you book. If your travel plans land on a Friday or Saturday and your group includes teens, you might need a different activity instead.
Is the $14 per person price good value?
At about $14 per person, you’re paying for an included mini golf round experience, not just admission to a room. Your ticket includes the basics you need to play: score cards, golf clubs, and balls. You also get a real choice of course themes, and the 18-hole option is a practical way to see more of the venue in one visit.
Food and drinks are not included, but the fact that bars are on-site means you can budget separately rather than being forced into a bundled meal. If you want water, soda, or cocktails, you can purchase what you like during your session.
For value, the biggest question is whether you want one course or two. If you’re the type who likes variety, the 18-hole ticket is often the better buy, because you can switch themes and keep the day feeling fresh.
Should you book Junkyard Golf Club Liverpool?

Book it if you want:
- a one-day, city-centre activity that’s easy to fit into a schedule
- quirky themed golf that leans into comedy and campy scares
- a low-pressure outing where included clubs and balls mean you start fast
Skip it or plan carefully if:
- you’re expecting high-end, smooth putting surfaces all the way through
- you’re traveling on a Friday or Saturday with anyone under 18 who will need to be in the venue
- you need a cash-only venue, since it is cashless
If your idea of a great travel day includes laughing, competing lightly, and letting the theme distract you from stroke counting, this is the kind of activity that delivers.
