Holey Moley Golf Club and Strike Bowling will open its doors on Thursday at Eastland in the old home of David Jones.
The retailer dropped its top level earlier this year and attractions company Funlab, which owns both brands, swooped on the space which is accessible from Ringwood Town Square.
It is the first venue in Victoria to have both attractions in the same space.
Strike Bowling boasts eight lanes while Holey Moley is an 18-hole course with new holes exclusive to Eastland.
Maroondah Leader can reveal the holes pay homage to the Jamaican bobsleigh team and WWE wrestling.
Other hole themes include Willy Wonka, Harry Potter, The Flintstones, Despicable Me and ET, and the famous couch from The Simpsons.
And in a classy hometown touch, another hole has a nod to Ringwood’s longstanding car yard Car City.
The venue also has a bar, food, escape rooms, karaoke and pool tables.

Funlab chief executive Michael Schreiber said it was “a no-brainer” to open both attractions at Eastland.
“Now residents of Ringwood and surrounding suburbs won’t have to travel to the city to get their bowling and mini golf fix, and as an added bonus, they’re both in the same space,” he said.
“The brands work really well together, a perfect blend of pop-culture and nostalgia, with a dash of friendly competition thrown in for good measure.”
