You usually don\u2019t yell \u201cFore!\u201d when you drive for a soccer goal. But that may be happening soon across Topgolf locations nationwide, when the Dallas-based company adds some soccer-related activations to its venues during FIFA World Cup 2026<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The company said it will be launching new international soccer-themed experiences across more than 100 U.S. venues this summer, including an interactive soccer-inspired golf game, in-venue soccer goals, tournament-inspired food and drink specials, and premium game day packages tied to the World Cup.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom soccer-inspired game play and game day experiences to new menu items and everyday value offers, we\u2019re giving our guests and soccer fans more ways to play this summer,\u201d CEO David McKillips said in a statement. \u201cWhether you\u2019re here for the tournament, the food, or just a fun night out with friends and family, Topgolf is this summer\u2019s ultimate sports and entertainment destination.\u201d<\/p>\n

Screening World Cup matches with gameday suites<\/p>\n

Topgolf will be broadcasting every World Cup match on HDTVs throughout the venues, from playing bays to the bar, from June 11 through July 19. Guests can enjoy the matches from any area of the venue, the company said, with access operating as usual throughout the tournament.<\/p>\n

Game day packages and premium gameday suites will also be offered at select Topgolf locations.<\/p>\n

Back to those soccer goals: Topgolf will install full-size soccer goals in the outfield at 63 venues, giving customers a chance to rocket a golf ball into the net.<\/p>\n

The company is also reintroducing a version of its Shot Shuffle game with a soccer-inspired twist from May 28 through July 19, transforming the game\u2019s environment into a stadium atmosphere with country flags and a soccer ball tracer.<\/p>\n

Two limited-time menus will also be rolling out this summer to represent the flavor of the World Cup and summer in general, Topgolf said.<\/p>\n
