Third Topgolf Location in Tennessee Opens in Knoxville

Topgolf Entertainment Group, a global sports and golf entertainment company, recently opened its 79th global venue in Knoxville, the company’s third in Tennessee. The new entertainment venue has brought roughly 300 jobs to the Knoxville area.

Topgolf’s new location is located off of Interstate 40 in Farragut, across from the Turkey Creek shopping center.

The company’s newest location is its third Tennessee venue, joining existing ones in Chattanooga and Nashville, however, the new two-story venue architecture design is the first of its kind in Tennessee.

“The open-air, two-level venue features 72 outdoor hitting bays with all the comforts of inside, a full-service restaurant with chef-inspired menu items, top-shelf drinks, music and year-round family-friendly programming for all ages,” Topgolf writes in a press release. “The venue also features an outdoor patio, rooftop terrace and private event space”

Additionally, the venue is fully equipped with Topgolf’s latest technology, including the company’s signature Toptracer. Toptracer is a ball-tracing technology that powers the experience at the venue and enables players at Topgolf to enjoy non-traditional golf games.

“We are excited to welcome the Knoxville community and bring more Tennesseans more opportunities to play the game of golf in their own way,” Topgolf Chief Operating Officer Gen Gray said in a statement. “As a company focused on bringing diversity, a new personality and attitude to this game of golf, we look forward to bringing our unique experience to this community.”

In total, according to Topgolf’s estimates, the company entertains more than 20 million players annually at its locations across the globe.

Just recently, Topgolf announced it is set to open another location in the United States, sending the number of global venues to over 80. The company’s new venue will be located in the greater Providence area, marking the company’s entry into Rhode Island.
