In the heart of Mount Maunganui, upbeat music fills the air at Golf 360. Known for being much more than just a driving range, Golf 360 has established itself as a vibrant hotspot for fun, social, and family-friendly outings, where music plays a central role in the iconic experience.
For Golf 360, music is what sets the business apart and defines its unique appeal. Owner Scott Pickett enthused, “Music transforms the place and brings everyone in. We want people to enjoy coming here for more than just hitting balls. It’s about creating an inviting space where everyone can have a great time.”
Scott proudly adds,
We know the music we play helps draw customers in. For us, music creates an atmosphere. It keeps the range lively, makes the space feel modern and upbeat, and connects us with a wide audience.
From coaching lessons to a floodlit driving range, an 18-hole mini golf course, and a vast retail store, Golf 360 truly has it all. Designed for more than just golfers looking to practice, Golf 360 is a one-stop destination for family outings, social events, and a vibrant atmosphere that keeps customers coming back.
Walking into the driving range or mini golf course, it’s common to see people nodding along to the tunes while they play. Feel-good pop hits from Ed Sheeran to Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars are all staples on the playlists. The team’s main goal is to create a space where people can hang out, have fun, and feel good, all while embracing the music.
Golf 360 uses music for much more than just filling silence. Scott explains, “Families often tell us the music makes the range feel more welcoming and less intimidating for kids, which is exactly the vibe we aim for.” This highlights just how important music is in shaping the atmosphere and drawing customers in.
Being part of the sporting industry, many such venues can feel competitive or intimidating. But Scott has harnessed the power of music to challenge that stereotype. The carefully curated soundtrack at Golf 360 makes the space more than just a practice range. “It sets the tone, helps people relax, and makes the whole environment inviting. It turns a session at the range into an outing or experience, not just practice.”
For Golf 360, holding a OneMusic licence is essential. Without the legal ability to play music, the attraction to such a broad and diverse customer base would be greatly diminished.
OneMusic exists to grant businesses the legal permission to use music while ensuring that creators are fairly compensated for their work. By securing a OneMusic licence, Golf 360 not only honours the value of artists’ music but also ensures they receive proper recognition for their creativity.
