Long-Awaited Topgolf Durham Opens Friday, April 12
Topgolf's third
The Basics
- Never been to a Topgolf venue? Think of it as a modern golf experience where anyone – including people who have never picked up a golf club and those who want to perfect their swing – can participate in the sport in a relaxed, no-pressure environment. You'll take aim at giant targets on the field while playing virtual courses or Topgolf's signature games like Angry Birds. And just so you know, Topgolf celebrates the bad shots just as much as the beautiful swings.
- This will be
North Carolina's third Topgolf venue, including two locations inCharlotte . - Topgolf Durham will be located at
4901 Topgolf Way , at thePage Road exit onInterstate 40 in southDurham . - Globally, this will be Topgolf's 99th outdoor venue when it opens on
April 12 and 89th in theU.S. - The venue will employ roughly 500 Playmakers (aka employees) – think bay hosts, bartenders, ball picker upper people, etc.
It's Golf
- Topgolf Durham will have 102 outdoor climate-controlled hitting bays spanning three levels. Each bay has lounge-type furniture or high-top tables where groups can cheer – or heckle – the other Players.
- The venue is equipped with Topgolf's Toptracer technology, which traces each golf ball's flight path, distance and other metrics.
- Bonus: On Tuesdays, game play is half-off!
- Players can even partake in lessons through Topgolf's Coach program, led by the venue's Director of Instruction.
It's Not Golf
- Topgolf takes its "not golf" very seriously. What we mean: A full-service restaurant manned by executive chefs, a 28-foot video wall, more than 200 HDTVs, an outdoor patio, music and year-round family-friendly programming are just as much a part of the Topgolf experience.
- Private event rooms and a rooftop terrace with fire pits also offer prime spots for team outings, family gatherings, meetings or really anything Players are looking to celebrate.
