Kalgoorlie-Boulder will be first regional WA town to host Pixar Putt mini-golf experience
Pixar Putt will head to the Goldfields Oasis for an 11-day session from June 28 as part of the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder's biennial Pop-Up Project initiative.
Mayor Glenn Wilson said the city was proud to provide another special one-of-a-kind experience this winter, following the pop-up ice skating rink seen in a previous year.
'This is a big win for Kalgoorlie-Boulder and a great example of what we can achieve when we think outside the box and push for something different,' he said.
'It's not just about hosting an event — it's about creating memorable experiences for local residents and communities right across regional WA who will travel here for it.'
'As a dad, I'm really looking forward to tackling the course with my four-year-old, who's a huge Lightning McQueen fan.
'It's the kind of experience you'd usually find in Perth or Melbourne, so it's fantastic to have it here at home in Kalgoorlie-Boulder.'
Featuring themed holes based on Toy Story, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Cars, and Inside Out 2, the course is designed for all ages.
After-dark sessions for adults will also be offered, with a pop-up bar.
TEG Experiences managing director Shane Harmon said he was excited to bring Pixar Putt to the region.
'Pixar Putt has had more than 700,000 minigolfers putting to infinity and beyond since we launched in 2019, and we are thrilled to be heading to Goldfields Oasis in Kalgoorlie-Boulder for the first time,' he said.
'We can't wait to showcase this Aussie fan-favourite attraction which has recently won a new legion of international fans in New York, Texas and Chicago.
'Kalgoorlie is the perfect location for Pixar Putt — there's plenty of space for patrons to have fun and kick some serious putt.'
The waitlist for early access is now open, with general tickets available from midday on June 2 online at ckb.wa.gov.au.

AFLW: Former Fremantle and West Coast ruck Alicia Janz behind Dockers' latest indigenous design
Inaugural Fremantle ruck and former West Coast Fever star Alicia Janz has inspired Fremantle's latest design as the club unveiled its 2025 AFLW Indigenous jumper. Janz was part of Dockers' inaugural AFLW squad, having transitioned out of a career in netball with the West Coast Fever, playing 14 games before moving to be part of West Coast's first team. Having represented three of WA's major teams, there were plenty of threads for Janz to choose from to help pull together her design with an overarching message on resiliance, wellbeing and connection. 'Its embedded in connection - connection to all things, whether it's people, land, animals, or the skies,' Janz said. 'That's more the First Nations side of it. Then, through the footy side, there's a connection between the players, the staff, the members, and the community. 'With the jumper's meaning of being resilient, mindful, and well-being, a lot of it is about being in flow, being present and in the moment. 'The background of the jumper is of the sunset and island life. You are ever-present, you are there in the moment, and it's very calming. The Dockes classic white chevrons have been replaced by Janz's family totems, a shark and a crocodile meeting around three Dharri a traditional head piece worn in times of celebration by Torres Strait Islanders. 'It's a huge part of our identity, culture, and connection with people,' Janz said. 'Flowing through the front of the jumper, we have the coral. That was originally designed by my sister, who was actually going to be the artist, then handed the reins over to me.' 'It kind of gives me Finding Nemo vibes - underwater, the peacefulness, beauty, and nature.' The top of the jumper features the hibiscus flower, which has been a staple of Fremantle Indigenous designs as a symbol of both the Stolen Generation and National Sorry Day. The back of the jumper features turtle shells, associated with wisdom and woven coconut leaves, often used in Torres Strait Islander culture, symbolising resourcefulness. Walyalup will wear Janz's Indigenous designed jumper over both Rounds 3 and 4 of the AFLW Indigenous Rounds, with the first being a clash with reigning premier North Melbourne at Fremantle Oval.

Dakota Johnson reveals 'weird' Madonna friendship
Dakota Johnson has been "weird friends" with Madonna for years. The 35-year-old star - whose parents are actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith - has opened up on her bond with the Queen of Pop, who she first met after Madonna worked with Dakota's stepfather Antonio Banderas on Evita in 1996. Dakota told E! News: "I really love her, we've been weird friends for a while. I met her when I was really young because she did a movie with my stepfather. "Then I got to know her later because we kinda worked together on something, we've always kind of circled each other." The Materialists actress described her friend as "an energy", while she still finds it surreal that they know each other. She added: "She is an energy to be near, but it is so beautiful and so wild and it's just cool that she wants to talk to me." Meanwhile, Dakota also reflected on her blossoming friendship with Splitsville co-star Adria Arjona after they grew close while filming the upcoming comedy. She said: "We love each other very much. When you're on location, you kind of band together. "We went to a hockey game and then we drank so much tequila." Adria admitted: "We drank a lot of tequila! I thought I could hang with Dakota." Dakota is also a producer on the movie, and she recently explained how she has relished the behind the scenes role because it helps her to put together a working environment that is "fun" and "fulfilling". She told Variety: 'If there's not a healthy collaboration, if it's not a good match, then it's not a good match. We really don't move forward if it's not a good match. 'I can't waste time on toxic sets anymore, or in situations that are not fun or fulfilling or healthy. That's one of the perks of [producing], because I get to put amazing people together and make something." Dakota didn't share any details of any past "toxic" experiences but stressed she has no desire to work with 'anybody who's mean or condescending or unkind.' She added: 'I don't want to face people who are not willing to collaborate, and then there are obvious things. 'We all know what a toxic set is by now. We're artists, so there's room for expansive personalities, and we're working with emotions.'
