It’s basically like Top Golf, but imagine hitting off the top deck of Citizens Bank Park onto the baseball diamond! Here are the details: Play an epic round of golf inside your favorite stadium! Upper Deck Golf is a once-in-a-lifetime golfing experience inside the most legendary stadiums and ballparks across the country! Enjoy a VIP experience while hitting tee shots from the upper deck throughout the stadium, down to custom greens on the field below. You’ll start and end your round at the clubhouse festival inside the stadium with great music, cold beers, food and multiple golfing challenges for you and your friends.
There have been a lot of really exciting events that happened at Citizens Bank Park, obviously from The Phillies Winning the World Series, to the Phillies run last year, to all the awesome concerts that have been and that are coming. Let’s not mention how we could have been getting ready to see Morgan Wallen on Saturday, June 17, and then he went and canceled and still hasn’t announced an official new show date.
