Wed 08 May 2024

The annual 2024 World Golf Awards will be held in the Portuguese paradise islands of Madeira on the evening of 22nd November.

Being held for the 11th time, the Awards serve to celebrate and reward excellence in golf tourism, world-class courses and golf destinations.

Having recently been held in both Abu Dhabi and Dubai from 2019 – 2023 this year’s Awards involve an exclusive two-day golfing itinerary, which includes golf at Club de Golfe Santo Da Serra and a round of golf at Palheiro Golf.

The Awards ceremony will bring together golf tourism leaders from nations across Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, North America and Oceania.\

Chris Frost, Managing Director, of World Golf Awards, said: “It is an honour to host the World Golf Awards in Madeira for the first time. This Atlantic jewel is an island blessed with a sublime tropical climate, a fascinating culture, delicious gourmet food and incredible flowers and fauna – making it the perfect destination for golf.

“I greatly look forward to joining the finest organisations in golf tourism this November.”

The worldwide voting runs from the start of each year. Votes are made by professionals working within the golf travel and tourism industry – senior executives, tour operators, agents and media professionals. Votes may also be cast by the public (golf tourism consumers).

Votes are submitted online via the World Golf Awards website. The winners of each national award go head-to-head with the winners of the other countries before unveiling the World winners.

The voting concludes on 6th October 2024.
