Topgolf Entertainment, a global sports and entertainment chain, will continue its expansion in Florida, US, with two new venues in the cities of Lake Mary and St Petersburg.
Lake Mary broke ground recently and St Petersburg is scheduled to do so within the next month, with openings for both slated for next year.
Topgolf chief development officer, Chris Callaway, said: “What began as a technology that enhanced the game of golf now encompasses a range of unmatched experiences, including innovative ways to experience the game in-person, virtually or digitally.
“At our Topgolf venues, we invite guests, including golfers and non-golfers alike, to experience point-scoring games using microchipped balls that instantly show performance data (including accuracy and distance) on a TV screen in the bay, while also enjoying a chef-driven menu, top shelf drinks, big screen TVs, flexible private event spaces and music. Year-round programming includes events for kids and families, social leagues, golf tournaments, lessons and other fun activities and events.”
The Lake Mary and St Petersburg Topgolf venues will each hire more than 400 full and part-time associates throughout the next year and expect to serve approximately 450,000 guests annually.
