Golf in Dubai Information

Dubai has a true golfing heritage and pedigree dating back to 1988 which over the years has grown dramatically and is now home to a range of golf courses designed by some of the biggest names in the sport including: Greg Norman, Ernie Els, Colin Montgomerie, and Nick Faldo – with many more courses in the pipeline. The golfing year in Dubai begins and ends with world-class events, including the OMEGA Dubai Desert Classic in January and the OMEGA Dubai Moonlight Classic which takes centre stage in October as some of the top female players compete under floodlights with stunning views of the illuminated Dubai skyline. The golfing grand finale is the world-renowned DP World Tour Championship, the climax of the European Tour season and final round of the Race to Dubai, featuring the game’s biggest names. For this alone, Dubai should be on every golfer’s bucket-list. Dubai also excels at offering a seemingly endless list of activities and experiences away from the course, including one of the best culinary scenes in the world alongside a variety of hotels that meet everyone’s need. Golf in Dubai is a collaborative governance framework established to encourage and enable greater focus and coherence in the travel and leisure industry with an interest in growing golf tourism in Dubai.
