Adventures Await with The Roof’s 18-Hole Mini Golf Course, Weekday Tee Time Happy Hour, SK8 The Roof, Nightly Laser Show, Boardwalk Games & Rides, & More

The Roof at Ponce City Market announced today the opening of its new, 18-hole miniature golf course, plus new ticket options, allowing guests general admission access with the chance to “choose your experience” by adding mini golf. Opened in 2016, The Roof at Ponce City Market sits 10 stories above the iconic community hub’s historic main building and features classic boardwalk games and rides at Skyline Park, elevated American dining at 9 Mile Station, world-class cocktails at 12 Cocktail Bar, a multi-tiered bar, gaming parlor, and private events space at RFD Social, and a rooftop roller skating rink, SK8 The Roof.

Set against the iconic Atlanta skyline, The Roof continues to offer a one-of-a-kind destination for dining, drinks, play, and events. The new mini golf experience was completely redesigned from the ground up by legendary golf course architect Bobby Cupp, known for his work on iconic Atlanta courses like Druid Hills Golf Club and Bobby Jones Golf Course, and brings the same thoughtful design principles to a playful, rooftop setting. The course introduces a more dynamic, elevated style of play with enhanced contours, new challenges, and a modern aesthetic inspired by today’s most engaging golf experiences. Whether guests are visiting for a casual round, a competitive group outing, or a date night with a view, the new course delivers a fresh take on a classic favorite. 

New this season, The Roof is also introducing Tee Time, a weekday happy hour. Offered Monday through Friday from 3-5pm, Tee Time features half-price mini golf and three-dollar Lucky One Lemonade or Tea, creating the perfect midweek moment to step away from the day, grab a cocktail, and get a round in with friends, coworkers, or out-of-town guests. 

Guests can pair their visit to The Roof with food and beverage offerings at 9 Mile Station or stop by 12 Cocktail Bar, which now hosts a monthly dinner series, Speakeasy Supper Club. The experience begins with cocktails at 12 Cocktail Bar before moving to the Roebuck Room for a family-style dinner. Plus, RFD Social, a 16,000-square-foot multi-level destination equal parts speakeasy, parlor, and rooftop hideaway, offers cocktails poured with precision, parlor games, and gatherings full of vintage glamour.

Back again this spring and summer is SK8 The Roof, the rooftop roller rink with high-energy vibes and skyline views with a nostalgic twist, and the nightly, high-energy Laser Light Show at 9:15pm. This unforgettable visual experience under the stars is projected directly onto Ponce City Market’s iconic tower and paired with lively music for the ultimate vibes. The show is included with admission to The Roof, so every guest can get a view of the action.

Alongside the mini golf renovation, The Roof has introduced “choose your experience” ticket options, allowing all guests to enjoy general admission access ($15+ for adults, $7+ for kids 12 and under) to The Roof’s boardwalk games, rides, and SK8 The Roof, with the option to add mini golf ($12 for adults, $7 for kids 12 and under). Kids ages three and under are free to visit The Roof and play mini golf, and The Roof is open to all ages all the time. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Tickets and more information about admission to The Roof are available here.

“We’ve always believed The Roof should feel like a place you can come back to again and again,” said Mandy Slater, owner of Slater Hospitality. “Not every visit looks the same, and now it doesn’t have to with our new flexible tickets. You can come up for the views, grab a drink, meet friends, and when you’re ready, jump into a round of mini golf that feels new each time you play it.”
