VISITOR INFORMATION.
35th BMW International Open.
JOY COMES IN MANY FORMS.
The BMW International Open is far more than just a golf tournament. World-class sport and the Tournament Village make it a perfect summer outing for all the family – especially with free admission every day for children aged 16 and under. Plus, this year’s fringe programme features two special highlights.
Immediately after the close of play on Thursday evening (4th July), World Long Drive champion Martin Borgmeier will transform the 18th green into a stage for a spectacular demonstration. Visitors in the grandstands will have a perfect view of his top-class display of long driving. This is golf as you’ve never seen it before.
Next up, on Friday 5th July, is Bavarian Day. First drink is free for anyone in traditional Bavarian dress, as the focus is on that unique joie de vivre in blue and white. Don’t miss these highlights.
