Welcome to "What's New," the Destination: Woodbury blog that brings you new and exciting updates around the city.
Central Park
Following a $42 million renovation project, Central Park is gearing up for an October reopening. A new large multi-purpose space will be available, capable of hosting 300 people and divided into smaller sections for different events and programs. A regional draw in Woodbury, the park will also feature an amphitheater, indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, new greenery and water features and room for art installations and public displays.
Lookout Ridge
Lookout Ridge at Central Park is a popular indoor playground reopening in October. The new indoor play structure—along with two new private birthday party rooms, Owl’s Den and Peak’s Nest— will also reopen this fall. Designed for children ages 12 and under, the updated indoor playground will feature more than 75 unique play elements, including a tall enclosed slide, a multi-lane slide, and a dedicated toddler area. Lookout Ridge is now accepting reservations for their party rooms.
Topgolf
Topgolf is coming to Woodbury! Opening in October, this will be its second location in the Twin Cities. Located near the intersection of Interstates 94 and 494, the 68,000-square-foot entertainment facility will include 102 outdoor, climate-controlled hitting bays on three levels according to the news release. A full food and drink menu will be available with lots of options to host your party or event.

A full-service restaurant and bar will be available onsite, along with special event packages. Situated next door to Topgolf, Woodbury will be the first location in Minnesota for Main Event. Update: Now opening in 2026 (trust us, it's worth the wait!).
