Topgolf is a one-of-a-kind golf entertainment experience with seven competitive games and advanced technology to track the accuracy and distance of players’ shots.

The Topgolf app, available for free download on iTunes and Google Play, allows users to change the channel on the TV in each hitting bay.

“We can’t wait to open our doors,” said Topgolf San Antonio Director of Operations Jay Molinar. “We’ve had people stopping by constantly over the past few weeks, eager to find out when we would be open. The community has really embraced us, and we are so excited to show them what Topgolf is all about. We will be hosting golf tournaments and leagues, activities for kids, themed costume parties, and live music on our rooftop terrace. Even if you don’t play golf, there will be no shortage of things to do here.”

Topgolf San Antonio hired approximately 450 local residents to staff the site. Company officials estimate that this location will serve 450,000 visitors in its first year of operation, with a 10-year economic output exceeding $264 million.
