The innovative venue experience will welcome all communities around the capital city.

Topgolf Entertainment Group, a global sports and entertainment company, plans to bring its technology-enabled golf entertainment experience to Des Moines, Iowa, in what will be the state's first Topgolf venue. 

"We are thrilled to be joining the Des Moines community and look forward to welcoming our new Players to Topgolf in the near future," said Topgolf Chief Development Officer Chris Callaway. "Our focus is on creating more ways for people to play the game of golf in a fun and unique way, and the Des Moines area is the perfect place to kick off our growth within the state."

Players at the new Topgolf venue will soon be invited to enjoy the brand's signature experience where they can play in point-scoring golf games in an energetic and fun environment. Located on the corner of Jordan Creek Parkway and Mills Civic Parkway within the West Des Moines city limits, the multilevel venue will sit within The Parkways development by Hurd Real Estate and will feature 72 climate-controlled outdoor hitting bays, chef-driven menu items, top-shelf drinks, big screen TVs, music and year-round programming.

Beyond entertainment, Topgolf would create approximately 300 full- and part-time jobs upon opening this new venue, with an opportunity for future Topgolf Associates to grow their careers, work in a unique culture-first environment and be part of a company that welcomes everyone as they are.
