Round up your mates, lock in your work crew and let your lover know you’ve got the next date night sorted, because we’ve sussed out the coolest catch-up in Brisbane that involves booze, (golf) balls and good vibes aplenty.
Where can you find this mecca of fun you ask? You’ll want to make tracks directly to Victoria Park to their newly refreshed Toptracer Driving Range, where you can swing a golf club and then sip a cocktail or three.
Trust us when we say one visit and you’ll be hooked. And no, you don’t need to be a pro to enjoy this epic spot. Read on for everything you can expect on a trip to this epic driving range.
Tee Off With Game-Changing Tech
So what exactly is Toptracer? Unlike a regular driving range, Toptracer uses state-of-the-art technology to track your golf balls after you hit them, in real time.
There’s a slew of epic games you can try using the tech, like Closest to the Pin, Long Drive and Go Fish, which means even the biggest novice will have an awesome time.
Should you consider yourself an Adam Scott or Min Woo Lee-in-the-making, Toptracer can also deliver stats on distance, shot shape and ball speed which can help players hone their skills. You can even challenge yourself to compete on a global leaderboard.
Go Boujee At The Sip And Swing Bays
If you really want to impress your mates, book one of their special Sip and Swing bays. For immaculate vibes and city views, get your competitive side going with up to six people in each bay.
Challenge your crew to a series of games, and refuel between swings with tipples and tasty eats. Via QR code, you can order seltzers, cheese platters, and charcuterie boards loaded with artisan cured meats, olives, crudités and chargrilled bread directly to your bay.
After something a little heartier? Head up to the Bistro for towering fried chicken burger with red cheddar, slaw and Cholula hot sauce, and you can’t go wrong with a bowl of hot chippies and aioli. Wash it all down with an ice-cold craft beer or seltzer and gear yourself up for another game.
Plan The Ultimate Christmas Party
With the festive season just around the corner, score bragging rights for life by booking the coolest Christmas party for your work crew (or just plan an epic end-of-year get-together with your mates) at the Sip and Swing bays.
There are seven bays on offer, and the Victoria Park team are only too happy to help coordinate the ultimate shindig. Even better, you can kick on post-swing with more bites and cocktails at the Victoria Park Bistro.
Toptracer is available at all 57 all-weather bays at Victoria Park, open daily from 6am to 11pm. No booking is needed for hitting bays (balls from $19), but reservations are required for the Sip and Swing bays. Get booking here.
