Monster Mini Golf Franchise Cost and Requirements for 2025

Background

What if I told you we've taken the classic family activity of mini golf, turned off the lights, cranked up the music, added arcade games, party rooms, and turned it into a glow-in-the-dark experience families can't get enough of?

We're not just fun - we're smart business.

Monster Mini Golf is a franchisee-led, franchisee-focused model, with low overhead, high margins, and monster demand.

Franchisee-led- Ownership Team

Our ownership team isn't just corporate-they're former franchisees who've been in your shoes. Every decision that they make is with the franchisees perspective in mind. That's why they stepped up, took on the Monster brand, and are now expanding it across the country with strategy, heart, and results.

Real Momentum, Real Markets
This isn't theory-it's happening right now. New stores in Bellevue, WA, Cordova, Spartanburg, Allentown, and Hammond, LA are seeing strong early performance and growing local followings fast.

That kind of traction-especially in mid-size and smaller markets-shows how scalable and adaptable the concept really is.

Not Just an Arcade. Not Just Mini Golf.
Monster is an immersive, nostalgia-fueled entertainment hub designed for guests ages 3 to 93. It's playful, stimulating, and unforgettable.

Year-round business (no seasonality)

  • Custom art + immersive theming
  • High repeat visit rates
  • Low barrier for family fun


  • Walk into any location and it's impossible not to smile. Kids love it. Parents love it. And they keep coming back-not because they have to, but because they want to.

    Built for Today's Families
    We've reimagined a classic format into something new-an experience that's both emotionally engaging and operationally sound. It blends creativity with commerce, fun with function.

    In Depth Financial Performance
  • 26 full P&Ls
  • Revenue-per-square-foot breakdowns
  • A detailed revenue mix analysis


  • This isn't a trend-it's a tested, scalable business with long-term potential, consistent unit economics, and a growing national footprint.

Buying a Franchise Guide: What is a Franchise Disclosure Document?

When evaluating a franchise opportunity, reading and understanding the current version of their FDD is a necessity. Considering the benefits of franchising, such as established brand recognition and support from the franchisor, it's important to also take into account franchise fees and franchising royalty fees. Since most franchisors are privately owned companies, the current versions of their FDDs are typically not available unless requested directly from them.
