Vegas Golfing With a Twist–The Swingers Club

On August 24, the mini-golf and Las Vegas bar scenes will collide, with The Swingers Club set to open in the renovated Plaza hotel, giving us another excellent place to stay and play in Vegas. A nine-hole Vegas-themed miniature golf course will be the focal point of the bar, as well as dueling pianos placed on the floor to encourage the camaraderie associated with both Vegas bars and golf. Owner and manager Anthony Cools, a local hypnotist and show producer, is looking to create an “inviting atmosphere where people can just relax and have fun,” and will do so with a schedule that includes the bar and mini-golf course (11 AM-4 PM), live music (7-9 PM), dueling pianos (9 PM-2 AM), a DJ, and a glow-in-the-dark disco golf course in the later hours (2 AM-4 AM).

A soft opening is scheduled for August 24 to coincide with the casino’s opening, with an official grand opening schedule for Labor Day weekend. Interested in checking out Cools’ hypnotism show in Las Vegas? CLICK HERE.
