Fremantle is building a production hub for Holey Moley as it takes on the production and distribution rights to the format, also known as Hole In One, from its Eureka Productions label for ABC.
A hub is being built in Portimão, Portugal, with initial filming slated for May and June. The extreme mini-golf competition rolled out in the U.S. on ABC and in Australia on Seven Network.
Jennifer Mullin, group CEO at Fremantle, said: “Holey Moley has proven its success in the United States, with its unique blend of comedy, competition, and large‑scale spectacle, attracting a significant, broad audience. We are excited to drive the format’s international expansion through our new global production hub in Portugal. Led by Fremantle Global Entertainment in close collaboration with the Fremantle Portugal team, this theme‑park‑scale set and world‑class production infrastructure enable us to deliver premium, high‑impact entertainment while achieving the production efficiencies essential in today’s global market. This hub underlines our ambition and further strengthens our growing Fremantle entertainment portfolio.”
