Topgolf announced that it has broken ground on a three-level venue in Woodbury, MN, set to open in late 2025. This is the second venue in Minnesota for parent company Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp. in addition to an existing venue in Minneapolis’ Brooklyn Center.
Topgolf defines itself “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.”
Topgolf Woodbury will be located near the SEQ intersection of I-494 and I-94 in Woodbury, MN, 10 miles east of downtown Saint Paul. Once open, Topgolf Woodbury will employ roughly 350 to 400 people.
The venue will have 102 outdoor climate-controlled hitting bays spanning three levels. Each bay will have lounge-type furniture or high-top tables. Topgolf will install its Toptracer technology, which traces a golf ball’s flight path, distance and other metrics. The venue will offer other amenities, including a bar and restaurant, 140 HDTVs, fire pits, music, family programming, event space, and roof top terrace.
Topgolf Chief Development Officer Chris Callaway said, “We’re thrilled to break ground in Woodbury and expand Topgolf’s presence in Minnesota. The venue will offer a new way for locals to connect, compete and play with friends and family while experiencing Topgolf’s unique style of modern golf.”
Woodbury Mayor Anne Burt said, “Our residents and businesses are so excited about Topgolf coming to Woodbury. We’ve been actively pursuing more recreational uses and play activities for our community, and Topgolf is a regional draw that will attract visitors from all over the region. Their presence will also benefit the surrounding businesses and add more jobs.”
Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp. has over 100-plus venues worldwide.
