1330 19th Street, NW formerly home to Buffalo Billiards

From a press release:

“Crazy golf, as coined by Swingers, is an exciting version of mini-golf that combines gourmet street food, meticulously hand-crafted cocktails, a theatrical setting and a live DJ to create an incredible social experience for guests. Swingers will open its third location in Washington D.C’s Dupont Circle on June 11th, with its fourth location coming shortly after in New York City’s Flatiron District.

Tucked beneath the bustling streets of D.C., guests of Swingers Dupont Circle will be transported to a world of verdant, undulating crazy golf courses featuring a 1920s English golf clubhouse, cocktail bars, gourmet street food vendors and the warmest of welcomes. Swingers Dupont Circle will feature immersive and multi-sensory, whimsical elements providing guests over 21 with a theatrical and high-end entertainment experience to enjoy with friends, family and colleagues.

Tickets for the D.C. location are on sale now for $19-24 a person with packages available upon request. Please visit swingers.club/us to purchase tickets.

“Swingers is a one-of-a-kind experience offering guests a new take on the classic game of mini-golf with high-end street food, amazing cocktails and elaborate interior decor like you’ve never seen before,” said CEO and co-founder Matt Grech-Smith. “What started out as a five-month pop-up in a London warehouse in 2014 has since grown into two permanent venues in London, U.K and an exciting development pipeline to come. Our expansion to the States was a natural next chapter. We’re thrilled to put a stake in the ground in two of the U.S.’s most influential cities known for their electric nightlife, diverse culture and prominent hospitality industry.”

“As we look forward to a post-pandemic economy, we are confident that Swingers will benefit from pent-up demand for new and engaging ways to socialize,” said Nick Franklin, Global Head of Private Equity at Cain International. “It is our belief that businesses in well-located cities that seamlessly deliver safe, high-quality, hospitality-driven experiences are the future of entertainment and we’re excited to support Swingers’ growth and expansion into the U.S.”

Swingers has aligned with notable local talent to bring guests a unique food and beverage experience tailored to each location. The Swingers Dupont Circle location has partnered with well-known D.C. hospitality group KNEAD Hospitality And Design to build out an exceptional all-day concept. Additionally, Swingers Dupont Circle will partner with local D.C. DJs to provide music throughout the week.

In response to COVID-19 restrictions, Swingers will continue to follow CDC guidelines to ensure the health and safety for all Swingers’ patrons and staff.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
