Trafford Golf Centre has announced plans for an ambitious expansion plan, creating 82 new driving range bays, backed by a significant investment.
The home to the UK’s largest golf academy in TraffordCity, Manchester has said it will enhance the experience for golfers, families and leisure seekers alike, with major improvements and expanded capacity across the site.

The golf practice and family-focused leisure facility currently sees over 23 million golf balls hit annually and up to 2,000 daily visitors.

The works will include:
● A three-storey, 15-bay west wing with modern ‘lounge bay’ designs, designed for a premium and comfortable practice experience.
● A three-storey, six-bay east wing which will be home to The Academy, the country’s largest golf improvement centre.
● Enhanced perimeter fencing for safety and security.
● Refreshed and modernised existing bays to improve the drive, dine and drink in-bay experience, creating a truly world-class destination.

Pete Styles, director of golf at Trafford Golf Centre, said: “Trafford Golf Centre has always been committed to creating a space where golfers of all abilities, families and friends can enjoy top-tier facilities in a welcoming and inclusive environment. These new developments are a direct response to the incredible demand we’ve seen, and we can’t wait to welcome even more visitors to enjoy everything we have to offer.”

To enable the construction works to take place, the driving range will close from January 5, 2026 for about 12 weeks, with a full reopening from April onwards. During this time, The Clubhouse, the American Golf store, The Academy (for golf lessons) and Dino Falls Adventure Golf will remain open as usual.
