Topgolf confirms details of ‘family fun’ complex planned on I-35

Dallas-based Topgolf will place a new venue in Waco that features a one-story complex filled with climate-controlled hitting bays, its signature ball-tracing games, food service, and yard games to create a “backyard” feel, Topgolf officials announced Wednesday. Waco’s Topgolf should open by fall this year near New Road and Interstate 35, between the Harley Davidson dealership and Central Texas Marketplace. Plano-based Cinemark has announced it will place there a 14-screen theater as part of NewQuest Properties’ Cottonwood Creek Market development. Topgolf has become a popular attraction in larger metropolitan areas, offering high-tech driving ranges, seat-side food and drink service, big-screen TVs and electronic scoring spread over the towering, three-story venues. It has almost 60 locations across the United States and abroad, attracting 20 million guests annually, according to Wednesday’s press release announcing the company’s plans in Waco.
