If you combined a golf driving range with bowling, you would get Topgolf. Topgolf allows your group to rent a tee by the hour, and choose from 9 different games to play. All balls contain a GPS chip, so you know exactly where your ball ended up. Locations have live music, food, drinks, tvs, and entertainment, making it fun for all skill levels.
Yes, Topgolf is usually open when it rains.
According to their website, unless it's an extreme weather event, Topgolf will stay open even in rain or snow.
Topgolf locations are all-weather facilities with covered hitting bays that are fitted with fans for the summer and heaters for the winter.
Prices and rates for Topgolf tend to vary based on location and time of day.
For example, at their San Jose, California location, the Saturday rates are $40/hr per bay before noon, 50/hr per bay from 12 pm to 5pm, and $60/hr per bay from 5pm to close. On Tuesdays, that same San Jose location observes Half Price Tuesdays and all the above prices are cut in half. For those who are new to TopGolf, they will also have to pay $5 as a one-time member fee for new players.
Yes, Topgolf is a franchise.
The cost to open a Topgolf franchise averages around $18 million, with prices increasing or decreasing sometimes drastically, depending on the location. The average Topgolf location is huge, at around 65,000 sq ft. and is 3 stories tall, with the ability to accommodate 1,200 people at a given time. This also adds to the hefty price tag for those looking to invest in Topgolf as a franchise opportunity.
No, Topgolf is not exclusively for kids, but they market their product as perfect for all ages.
Topgolf provides lessons, junior camps, and even a junior academy for children who would like to learn how to play and learn more about golf. Note that children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult in order to enter. Topgolf also caters to adults, with plenty of golf, food, beverages, and music providing a lively atmosphere for a whole day of fun.

Topgolf is essentially a sports entertainment complex that features a unique, high-tech golf game. What makes Topgolf so unique and high-tech is the patented microchip technology that they place in their golf balls. This allows each player to track their golf ball and more accurately score their shots.
Much like how a bowling alley gives separate lanes to each group of players, with Topgolf each party (up to 6 people) will play Topgolf within their own private "bay." Besides the golf game itself, Topgolf also has an extensive food and beverage menu, climate controlled hitting bays, and music, all to make the customers' experience at Topgolf that much more of an enjoyable experience.
