The new facility will overlook the San Francisco Bay and feature 108 outdoor climate-controlled hitting bays spanning three levels, with each bay equipped with lounge-type furniture or high-top tables.
Topgolf Burlingame will also feature a 36-foot video wall, more than 200+ HDTVs, an outdoor patio with games, music and year-round family-friendly programming round out the Topgolf experience. Private event rooms will be available for team outings, family gatherings, meetings and more.

"We're thrilled to officially open Topgolf Burlingame after much anticipation,” said Topgolf chief operating officer Erin Chamberlin. “At Topgolf, we introduce a whole new way of play that welcomes everyone from seasoned golfers to beginners. Burlingame's lively community is the perfect place to bring our unique style of modern golf, and we can't wait for both residents and visitors to experience it."
The new venue will be equipped with Topgolf's Toptracer technology, which traces each golf ball's flight path, distance and other metrics. Two indoor Swing Suite simulator bays powered by Full Swing technology will allow players to extend the game from the tee line to the first-floor golf simulators to play a variety of virtual courses and games.
Topgolf Burlingame will employ roughly 450 people, and feature a full-service restaurant and bar.
"The City of Burlingame welcomes Topgolf and their premier sports entertainment venue to our Bayfront,” said Mayor Donna Colson. “We anticipate this beautiful new facility will drive economic growth by bringing tourism, business, conferences and families to enjoy the recreational amenities and friendly staff that make up the Topgolf team.”
