City Putt includes a pair of 18-hole miniature courses.
The course designers drew on local scenes and iconic Louisiana elements — swamps, alligators and music — in planning City Putt. One course highlights Louisiana cities; the other celebrates notable New Orleans street names. Both courses are wheelchair accessible and meet ADA standards.
The complex includes a concession area, restrooms and a birthday party room. Parking is available adjacent to the Great Lawn in City Park.
Opening day festivities include a ceremonial ribbon cutting at 10:30 a.m. The course will open at 11 a.m. The first 150 patrons through City Putt’s gates on opening day will have the chance to win a special prize if they draw a golden golf ball out of the City Putt golf ball bucket.
