The Ashford Cinema is expanding its entertainment offering with the launch of two TrackMan golf simulators on Friday 4th September, giving visitors an exciting new way to play, compete, eat, drink and socialise—all under one roof.

The new golf simulators are expected to appeal to families, groups of friends, local businesses and golf enthusiasts from across Ashford and the surrounding area.

Designed for players of all abilities, the new TrackMan golf simulators bring together golf, interactive entertainment and social experiences in one destination.

From experienced golfers looking to improve their game to complete beginners trying golf for the first time, guests can enjoy more than 500 world-class courses, including some of the most iconic venues from around the world, alongside fun challenges and friendly competitions.

Each private bay features a dedicated seating area and table, with food and drinks served directly to guests as they enjoy an immersive golf experience — whatever the weather.

Whether visiting for a quick game or a full round, the golf simulators fit easily into a day or evening out. A full 18-hole round can be completed in under two hours, while 55-minute sessions start from just £28 per bay for up to four people.

The launch of the two TrackMan golf bays marks another exciting addition to The Ashford Cinema's growing entertainment offering, with further new experiences, events and announcements planned over the coming months.

Councillor Noel Ovenden, Leader of Ashford Borough Council, said: “We are delighted to see the leisure offer at Elwick Place continuing to grow, with the arrival of the new TrackMan golf simulators adding another exciting reason for people to visit and enjoy time in the town centre, alongside our popular cinema. 

"Elwick Place has an important role to play in supporting Ashford’s evening and leisure economy, and it is fantastic to see The Ashford Cinema building on its offer with more experiences for residents, visitors and businesses. With further additions and announcements still to come, we look forward to seeing even more exciting developments at Elwick Place in the months ahead.”

To celebrate the launch weekend, The Ashford Cinema will be marking the occasion with a range of special opening activities, including exciting giveaways, exclusive promotions and other launch weekend activity for guests to enjoy.

Ben Hammond, General Manager at The Ashford Cinema, added, “We're thrilled to be bringing TrackMan golf simulators to The Ashford Cinema and giving people an exciting new way to spend time together.  

"Whether you're an experienced golfer, trying it for the first time, celebrating with friends or simply looking for something different to do, the simulators offer a fun, interactive experience for everyone.

"You can play some of the world's best courses or just play for fun whilst enjoying great food and drinks delivered to your bay and make a real occasion of your visit. 

"This is another exciting addition to everything we offer at The Ashford Cinema and we're looking forward to sharing even more new experiences with our community over the coming months."

The golf simulators will also be available to book for birthday parties, corporate team-building events, group celebrations and private hire, providing a fresh and exciting entertainment option for local businesses, clubs and community groups.

Online bookings are open via The Ashford Cinema website ahead of the golf bays officially launching on Friday 4th September. 

With the latest film releases, food and drink, and now TrackMan golf bays all under one roof, The Ashford Cinema continues to offer more ways for people to relax, socialise and enjoy quality time together—with even more exciting additions still to come.
