contents We compute the total cross section for $t\bar{t}t\bar{t}$ production at next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL$^{\prime}$) accuracy. This is the first time resummation is performed for a hadron-collider process with four colored particles in the final state. The calculation is matched to the next-to-leading order strong and electroweak corrections. The NLL$^{\prime}$ corrections enhance the total production rate by 26\%. The size of the theoretical error due to scale variation is reduced by close to a factor of two, bringing the theoretical error significantly below the current experimental uncertainty of the measurement.
