The three-level venue sits adjacent to the
fully redesigned Montebello Golf Course
DALLAS, April 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Modern golf entertainment
leader Topgolf announced today it will open in
Montebello, California, on
May 3, marking the company's
100th global outdoor Topgolf venue.
Located about 10 minutes east of downtown LA, the three-story
Topgolf venue anchors the redesigned Montebello Golf Course that
the City of Montebello recently
transformed into two courses: The first course is a traditional
nine-hole course, and the second course is a new, par 3 nine-hole
course with night lighting. The City of
Montebello serves as the land owner, with Troon as the
operator of both courses. The city's redevelopment also includes a
new clubhouse as well as water features across the entire golf
course development.
Topgolf Basics
- Never been to a Topgolf venue? Think of it 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.
- This is the third Topgolf venue in the LA region, including
locations in El Segundo and
Ontario. Topgolf El Segundo also
sits next to a green-grass golf course that's operated by
Topgolf.
- The venue is located at 100 Topgolf Drive (get it?), just off
the 60 Freeway at Garfield Avenue.
- The venue will employ roughly 450 Playmakers (aka employees) –
think bay hosts, bartenders, ball picker upper people, etc.
It's Golf
- The Montebello venue features
102 outdoor climate-controlled hitting bays spanning three levels.
Each bay has lounge-type furniture or high-top tables where groups
can cheer – or heckle – the other Players.
- The venue is equipped with Topgolf's Toptracer technology,
which traces each golf ball's flight path, distance and other cool
metrics.
- Players aim at giant targets on the field while playing virtual
courses or Topgolf's new game, Block Party! A game designed for
everyone, Block Party helps level the playing field since
the whole outfield is scorable. (That means first-timers have an
excellent shot at beating more seasoned Players!)
- Just so you know, Topgolf celebrates the bad shots just as much
as the beautiful swings.
- Players can even partake in lessons through Topgolf's Coach
program, led by the venue's Director of Instruction.
It's Not Golf
- Topgolf takes its "not golf" very seriously. What we mean: A
full-service restaurant helmed by executive chefs, a 28-foot video
wall, more than 200 HDTVs, an outdoor patio, music and year-round
family-friendly programming are just as much a part of the Topgolf
experience.
- Private event rooms and a rooftop terrace with fire pits also
offer prime spots for team outings, family gatherings, meetings or
really anything Players are looking to celebrate.
What They Said
- Topgolf Senior Vice President of Global Operations
Mike Mann: "Hello, Montebello! We're so thrilled to open this
venue and thank the city for their partnership. Having a
green-grass course next to our off-course experience is a prime
example of how the game of golf continues to grow and evolve, and
bringing our own unique and accessible style of play to the sport
is what we're all about."
- Montebello Mayor
Scarlet Peralta: "The
City of Montebello is opening
gateways to the community, recreation and shared experiences with
this facility's opening. Topgolf not only enhances Montebello's entertainment options but also
underscores our dedication to fostering economic growth and
providing top-notch recreational experiences for residents and
visitors alike."
- Montebello City Manager
Raul Alvarez: "It is with great
pleasure that we welcome Topgolf to our vibrant community. This
wonderful venue will undoubtedly become a cornerstone in our city's
recreational landscape and a focal point for entertainment in our
region."
