Here’s Why The Golf Next Weekend Is Not JUST For Golf Fans

Unless you’ve been to the f&b village at the DP World Tour Championship, it’s hard to imagine what it’s really like, so allow us to set the scene…

Among the rolling greens of Jumeirah Golf Estates, they’ve managed to squeeze in a spacious area devoted entirely to food trucks, big-screen TVs (so you can keep up with the golf, obvs!) bean-bags, plenty of umbrellas, a stage for live music, kids zones and more.

This is the social hub of the golf, so expect a lively afternoon, and parents take note: There’s PLENTY to keep the kids entertained all afternoon… with games like soft play, ball pool, creative tables, long putt, crazy cricket, bouncy castle, kids golf lessons and face painting.

Here’s why the golf is not JUST for golf fans

Find the village adjacent to the driving range and 1st tee

Not just a place to chill, eat and watch the golf from the comfort of a bean bag, here are all the things you can do throughout the weekend.

The entertainment kicks off on Thursday at 4.30pm with a DJ the Championship Village and it does not stop all weekend! This will be followed by live music from Carmen and the Black T’s on Friday and Saturday and the village will also feature a DP World Game Changers Challenge, the DP World Tour Championship STEAMathalon presented by BMW Middle East and AGMC, giant TV screen, the Dubai Eye Live Broadcast Studio, Zurich Kids Zone and Sports Zone and live shows from the renowned Golf Trick Shot Boys, these guys are definitely worth a look!

Test your shot at DP World Game Changers Challenge… A nine-shot, fun mini-golf challenge, designed to test the abilities of any golfer, young or old. Set-up by the Pete Cowen Academy, test your putting, bunker shots and tee shots, the highest score wins!

Watch AI Golf bot! Part of the STEAMathalon by BMW Middle East and AGMC, this is a four-day comp for 10-13 year olds who have TRAINED their golf-bots to pro status, how cool is that?!
