CityGolf USA to open first indoor venue in Nashville

CityGolf, which allows players to compete over a full 18 holes in an indoor environment, is to open its first US site in Nashville, Tennessee.

CityGolf USA has announced the upcoming opening of its flagship location in Nashville, Tennessee, which will be the first full 18-hole indoor simulator golf course in the United States. 

CityGolf allows players to compete over a full 18 holes, with full shots hit into simulator screens. But the concept also includes 18 synthetic green complexes that allow for short-game pitching, chipping, bunker play and putting.

Leveraging the digital golf course model pioneered by GOLFZON, and developed in partnership by Nessie Capital, GOLFZON, Parlay Capital Holdings, and the Tennessee Golf Foundation, CityGolf USA is redefining how golfers and guests play golf in urban environments.

The Nashville venue features sequential 18-hole play including GOLFZON simulators, real putting surfaces, dedicated short-game areas, and a modern driving range with GOLFZON simulators – all crafted to bring traditional golf strategy into an indoor setting.

CityGolf Nashville will also feature a full hospitality and social experience, including a restaurant and bar, a retail pro shop, private event spaces and driving range bays for corporate and social gatherings, and on-site PGA-certified professionals offering lessons, leagues, and player development programs. An 18-hole round will cost between $60-125, depending on time of day, though the average round is less than $100.

“Golf has never been more popular, but for millions of golfers, finding the time, or even a place to play remains a challenge,” said Tony Graffia Jr, CEO of CityGolf USA and Managing Partner of Nessie Capital. “CityGolf USA changes that by making it possible to play a full round before or after work, year-round, in cities where people live and work. It’s a faster, more accessible way to experience the game.”

“CityGolf is creating something that has never existed in the US – a true indoor golf course supported by a full hospitality ecosystem,” said AJ Zahn, COO of CityGolf USA. “Our mission is to bring real golf into the heart of America’s cities, and Nashville is the perfect place to begin.”

Golfzon already has two CityGolf locations in China. At its Tianjin site, which opened in September 2024, nearly 10,000 rounds (9,937) were played in 2025. At the end of June, 7,623 rounds had been played so far in 2026.

“GOLFZON was founded to make golf more accessible to anyone who wanted to play,” said Kim Young-Chan, Chairman of GOLFZON Group. “CityGolf USA builds on that vision by combining GOLFZON’s industry-leading simulator technology with real putting greens and short-game complexes to create a new urban golf club. It gives golfers who don’t have the time, space, or access to a traditional course the opportunity to enjoy the full experience of an 18-hole round.”

CityGolf USA is introducing a limited founding membership for golfers seeking early access to the Nashville location. Details will be released alongside the company’s membership website, social channels, and digital launch campaign.

Additional announcements — including a design partnership and course architecture by a world-renowned golf architect — will follow as CityGolf USA continues its national expansion.
