BigShots Golf to launch new facility in Grand Prairie in

DALLAS, Dec. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BigShots Golf ® – Invited’s tech-driven entertainment and culinary experience offering fun for all ages and skill levels, is announcing today the plans for a new location in Grand Prairie (Dallas), Texas. The addition of this facility will be its eighth location and third in the state of Texas. The new 12-acre location will be part of Grand Prairie’s EpicCentral entertainment district and is planning to open by the end of second quarter 2024.

The new Grand Prairie location will feature BigShots Golf’s new prototype design which includes a two-story tee-line with 80 interactive, climate-controlled tee boxes and cutting-edge technology powered by TrackMan Range. These enhancements allow games to be enjoyed by players of all ages and skill levels. Avid golfers can play full rounds on virtual golf courses all over the world, while beginners, families, and children can take part in interactive games that give everyone a chance to win.

“BigShots Golf Grand Prairie is a great way for competitive players to enjoy the game they love as well as social and less experienced players to enjoy the sport in a fun, casual experience that includes top-notch dining and entertainment,” said BigShots Golf Chief Operating Officer, TJ Schier. “We thank the City of Grand Prairie for their continued support as we work toward bringing a whole new level of entertainment and innovative dining to the community.”

“Grand Prairie is proud to welcome BigShots Golf to our EpicCentral entertainment district, which we are developing to be a top destination for entertainment in DFW,” said Mayor Ron Jensen. “The addition of BigShots Golf to our current and soon-to-open offering of entertainment, dining and shopping along the State Highway 161 EpicCentral Corridor is a great addition to the previously announced Bass Pro Shops and Andretti Karting and Games.”

The venue will also include a 27-hole tech-driven indoor putting course and Anthem Kitchen + Bar, an elevated sports bar with large screens for optimal viewing, unexpected menu items, such as the PB & Jam Burger, signature cocktails and craft beer. BigShots Golf will provide year-round programming for all ages and a 7,500 square-foot multi-function space to host birthday parties, fundraisers, corporate outings and more.

“Our staff is excited to partner with BigShots Golf, a North Texas company who will be developing their flagship facility here in Grand Prairie,” said City Manager Steve Dye. “We look forward to building successful relationships with BigShots Golf, Bass Pro Shops and Andretti Karting and Games, as we continue to selectively build out our EpicCentral corridor along SH 161.”

Golf entertainment is helping to fuel unprecedented growth in golf participation across the globe. Through BigShots Golf, Invited is focused on further diversifying the sport by creating a casual and fun environment for new golfers to experience the game.
