Some ideas are so good, you wonder why nobody thought of them sooner.

Fringes & Fairways is one of those ideas.

A fully mobile golf simulator that shows up at your event, sets up in minutes, and instantly becomes the most popular thing in the room. We're talking corporate parties, charity fundraisers, festivals, school events, trade shows — anywhere people gather, Fringes & Fairways can turn it into a golf experience everyone wants to try.

And the best part? It's veteran-owned and operated. Which means we love this one on multiple levels.

What Is It?

Simply put, Fringes & Fairways is a mobile golf simulator rental company serving all of Central Texas — Killeen, Copperas Cove, Harker Heights, Temple, Belton, Georgetown, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Leander, Liberty Hill, and beyond.

They bring a complete golf simulator setup to your venue, handle all the assembly, calibration, and operation, and run the entire experience so you don't have to think about a thing. Indoor or outdoor. Small party or big festival. It works.

How It Works

The process is beautifully simple:

  1. You book. Fill out a quick form with your event details, location, and preferred package.
  2. They bring it. They deliver, assemble, calibrate, and prep the simulator at your venue.
  3. Guests play. People step up, take their swings, compete, and have fun — regardless of skill level.
  4. They clean it up. When the event's over, they handle breakdown and haul-away.

That's it. You get the fun without the logistics headache.

Three Ways to Play

Fringes & Fairways offers three different experience formats depending on the vibe of your event:

Quick Play Setup

Best for festivals and high-traffic events. A fast, high-turnover format designed to maximize participation. Think a 3-swing challenge with continuous flow — people step in, take their shots, and the next person goes. Keeps the energy moving.

Event Experience

Best for private parties and corporate events. A fully managed simulator experience with staff on-site running everything. Creates competitive, social energy that gets people talking and engaging with each other.

Competitive Add-On

Best for fundraisers and charity events. Structured contests like closest-to-the-pin or longest drive with leaderboards and optional prizes. Turns a fun activity into a compelling reason to donate.

Why We Love This

We admit it — we're biased. Supporting fellow veterans is something we care deeply about, and Fringes & Fairways is proudly veteran-owned and operated. That alone makes them worth shouting about.

But beyond that, we simply love the concept. How many events have you been to where people show up, stand around awkwardly, and leave? Fringes & Fairways solves that problem in the most elegant way possible — by giving people something interactive to do that works for every age and skill level.

Golfers love it because it's golf. Non-golfers love it because it's approachable and fun. Kids love it because swinging a club at a giant screen is inherently awesome. And event organizers love it because it keeps people engaged, participating, and having a good time — which is the whole point of hosting an event in the first place.

They handle setup, operation, and breakdown. It's a compact footprint that fits most event spaces. Player rotation is fast so nobody waits long. And they have on-site support to keep everything running smoothly.

It's a business built on making other people's events better. What's not to love about that?

For Event Organizers

If you're planning a corporate event, charity fundraiser, festival, school function, or private party in Central Texas and you want something that will actually get people engaged, this is it.

Fringes & Fairways takes the guesswork out of event entertainment. They show up, set up, run the whole experience, and pack it up when you're done. You get the credit for bringing something awesome. They do the work.
