hile the grand opening
won't happen until this
fall, work is under way
and anticipation is building for
Indian Wells Golf Resort's
newest offering – a golf ex-
perience under the stars.
Similar in some ways to
the uber-popular and grow-
ing TopGolf, Indian Wells is cre-
ating an experience that utilizes
existing space at the range and put-
ting green and offers participants a
variety of ways to enjoy fun games
at night.
On the driving range, groups or in-
dividuals can aim for large, colorful
inflatable targets that light up and
make noise when you hit them.
On the nine-hole putting course,
computer-generated lasers will proj-
ect games such as horse, golf darts
and Bocce onto the green.
Adding to the social setting, there
will be food and bar service,
music and comfortable out-
door seating to complete
the experience.
Director of Sales and Mar-
keting Michael Tebbetts said
the new nighttime activities will
offer guests a captivating entertain-
ment option and, whether you're a
scratch golfer or a novice, it won't re-
quire the same time commitment as a
round of golf.
"As the center of our 'campus'
with four hotels, we're always look-
ing for fun things for visitors to do
during off-peak hours," Tebbetts
said. "To have an entertainment
venue that can draw people and en-
hance our current operation was
something we wanted to explore. We
looked at a lot of possibilities, and
this was a no-brainer."
Tebbetts said the new nighttime of-
ferings at Indian Wells also would be
the first golf entertainment amenity
of its kind in the Coachella Valley,
and perhaps all of Southern Cali-
fornia.
"There are a lot of golf simulators
out there, but I haven't seen anything
in a setting like this – outdoors and
on a real putting green," he said.
"We're looking forward to providing
this opportunity to our guests."
