“Topgolf fosters a fun social atmosphere that everyone can enjoy,” said Manny Ruiz, CEO of the HMG brand that owns the Hispanicize events. “Plus, it offers an amazing backdrop with the outfield and giant targets, friendly competition, good food and drinks. It’s the perfect gathering place for our digital creators to have fun and get creative.”
Through the premium experience of play, food and music, Topgolf is inspiring people of all ages and skill levels – even non-golfers – to come together for playful competition. Guests can enjoy point-scoring golf games using microchipped balls that instantly score themselves, showing players the accuracy and distance of their shots on a TV screen in their hitting bay. The venues also feature an outstanding chef-driven menu, top-shelf drinks, big screen TVs and music in climate-controlled hitting bays for all-seasons comfort. Year-round programming includes events for kids and families, social leagues, golf tournaments, golf instruction and more.

Hispanicize Texas will feature four, full-day tracks with more than 20 sessions: 1. A multicultural content creators track; 2. An entrepreneurship and leadership track; 3. A GenZ track curated by Latinitas; and 4. An entrepreneur’s mentorship track.
