Five Reasons Five Iron Is the Ultimate Event Venue

When it comes to planning a party or corporate event, the search for the perfect venue can feel overwhelming, daunting even. You want a space that’s flexible enough to fit your entire guest list, has entertainment options fun enough to keep everyone engaged, and, in the case of an event sponsored by your employer, professional enough to reflect well on the brand. That doesn't even cover the nitty-gritty needs either: delicious menu items (dietary restrictions included), variety of drink options, customizations to make it feel like an extension of you, an atmosphere that sparks energy rather than sucks it out of the group...the list goes on and on. Being the host/ess with the most/est is truly no small feat.

That’s where we come in. Five Iron is not just a space full of golf simulators (though our state-of-the-art Trackman bays are always the center of attention). We’re also an event venue designed for connection, play, and a healthy dose of personality. Whether you’re looking to host a corporate meeting, holiday party, birthday bash, fundraiser, mitzvah, bachelorette party, or networking event, the Five Iron way is about taking the devil out of the details and crafting a night (or day!) you and your guests will remember because you'll actually get to enjoy it alongside them.

We aren't just heroes of the holidays, though. Here are five reasons why Five Iron is one of the most exciting party venues and best places to rent space for events of any kind.



1. Flexible Event Spaces That Fit Any Group

Some venues feel cramped, like the walls are caving in. Others, too cavernous, empty, and impersonal. At Five Iron, you get the best of both worlds with flexible event spaces accommodating of your guest count, whether it's 2 simulator bays for 12 or a whole venue for 200.

  • Planning a team-building happy hour? Enjoy a cozy, semi-private setup where attendees can mingle, swing, sip, and snack.
  • Hosting a corporate holiday party for all of your employees? Rent an entire Five Iron location for your venue and give your crew the run of the place with golf, games, and drinks flowing all night!

Our party and event rental model is designed with adaptability in mind. Instead of working around a rigid ballroom layout or generic, sterile meeting space, you can shape Five Iron to match your vision.

Looking for indoor rentals that still feel vibrant and social? Want to rent the space for a hybrid event that mixes presentations with play? Need a space to host a fundraiser that’s more interactive, less formal?

Bottom line: We’ve hosted it all, and we’ll work with you to organize your event around the ideal experience you're envisioning. Five Iron makes it easy to find the right fit, and the right amount of space for your group and your budget.




2. Customizable Food Menu for Every Occasion

Let’s be real: great food makes or breaks an event. That’s why Five Iron takes catering seriously. Our customizable food menu ranges from crave-worthy comfort bites to elevated entrées, so you can tailor the spread to fit your vibe, your budget, and the reason for celebration in the first place.

  • Light bites and hearty apps: Perfect for a networking happy hour, cocktail party, or post-meeting mixer.
  • Buffet-style options: Keep it casual and communal with sliders, flatbreads, wings, and more.


Because no two events are the same, our team works with you to create a food plan that reflects your goals. Want a menu that aligns with your brand colors or a themed night? Need to accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions? Throwing a birthday party and want a surprise dessert? We’ve got you covered.

And if you’re looking to wow your team with something beyond the ordinary “corporate catering” lineup, Five Iron’s kitchen brings creativity and flavor to the table. Pair it all with our beverage program — craft beer, seasonal cocktails, or even design your own signature drink ,and you’ve got the recipe for a truly perfect and memorable experience.



3. Golf and Games That Keep Everyone Engaged

Here’s the best-kept secret about hosting an event at Five Iron: you don’t need to be a golfer to have a blast.

Our high-tech Trackman simulators are a hit with players of all levels, but they’re just the beginning. We’ve designed our spaces with plenty of entertainment options so everyone can find something they love.

  • Arcade-style and table games encourage friendly competition and laughter between colleagues or friends. Pool, darts, air hockey, shuffleboard, and more!
  • Many of our locations include multisport simulators to play virtual soccer, football, hockey, and disc golf.
  • Some of our locations also feature duckpin bowling lanes, which can be reserved for events or as part of a larger venue rental.
  • For a more structured experience, most of our locations have enough room to set up a team-building activity or group contests to boost employee engagement.


Birthday parties, family celebrations, bar and bat mitzvahs, bachelor/bachelorette parties, work celebrations...they all thrive in our environment because it’s interactive without being intimidating. You don’t have to swing a club like a pro to join in the fun.

That variety also makes Five Iron ideal for corporate entertainment — no more awkward mingling and endless small talk around a cocktail table. Instead, your employees, clients, or attendees can bond over activities that get people moving, laughing, and engaging with one another. It’s an experience designed to keep energy high and guests happy from start to finish.



4. The Best Sports Bar in Town

Of course, no great party is complete without great drinks. Five Iron doubles as one of the best sports bars in every city we’re in, serving up a lineup that rivals any dedicated nightlife spot.

  • Craft and seasonal beers on tap keep things fresh.

  • Signature cocktails offer a little extra flair, from classics to creative concoctions.

  • Unique shots to start or finish the night off with a bang!

Our fully-stocked bar means there’s something for every attendee, whether they’re in the mood for a cocktail, mocktail, or ice-cold beer. Looking for ways to make your event stand out? Work with your dedicated event manager to design a unique drink just for your party — branded names, custom garnishes, and all. That level of customization adds a special touch to everything from a holiday corporate party to a birthday bash. Imagine unveiling a “CEO Spritz” at your networking event or a “Holiday Hole-in-One” cocktail at your office party.



And since Five Iron’s sports bar vibe already includes plenty of big screen TVs, you can host happy hours, watch parties, or hybrid events that mix business with play. Guests get the benefit of a full-service bar inside a venue that’s designed to host more than just another night out.



5. Turn Up the Fun with Unique Add-Ons

The final reason Five Iron stands out as an event venue? We help you turn up the fun with extras that transform your gathering into something unforgettable. If you. can dream it, chances are, we can achieve it. Our event team can help you add:

  • Custom decor and branding to reflect your company, theme, or family celebration.

  • Entertainment upgrades like a live DJ, glambot, or photo booth.

  • Interactive activations that make your event feel bigger, bolder, and more immersive.

These add-ons give you a way to scale your event depending on your organization’s goals, creativity, and budget. Planning a fundraising gala? Add elements that keep donors engaged. Organizing a family mitzvah? Decorate the space with custom elements that celebrate the young person at the center of it all and activities that make the day feel special.

By layering in these enhancements, you can create not just an event, but an experience that feels tailor-made.
