Riyadh, Saudi Arabia \u2013 LIV Golf, the global golf league energizing the sport through team competition and innovative fan experiences will return to Saudi Arabia to launch its 2026 season at LIV Golf Riyadh presented by ROSHN Group<\/a>, taking place February 5-7, 2026 at the spectacular Riyadh Golf Club.<\/p>\n

Following a dramatic debut under the lights in 2025<\/a>, the season-opener promises another thrilling display of night golf in the heart of the capital, once again bringing a festival of world-class sport and entertainment.<\/p>\n

Early bird tickets for LIV Golf Riyadh presented by ROSHN Group 2026 are now available<\/a>, including a select number of Club 54 hospitality tickets and three-day grounds passes to enjoy a festival of world-class golf, live music, and family-friendly experiences.<\/p>\n

ROSHN Group, Saudi Arabia\u2019s leading multi-asset class real estate developer, continues with LIV Golf as global Pillar Partner for the 2026 season. As the two organizations work together to accelerate the sport\u2019s growth with new audiences, ROSHN Group and LIV Golf will champion youth access to golf and promote golf training and talent development.<\/p>\n

Last month, LIV Golf and ROSHN Group jointly launched the \u201cRising Stars\u201d program<\/a>, the first of its kind to educate and inspire young people in Saudi through the sport of golf. As part of a larger 6-month golf program led by Golf Saudi, \u201cRising Stars\u201d participants will have benefited from the opportunity to receive mentorship at global events from LIV Golf players like Talor Gooch<\/a> and Jason Kokrak<\/a>, lessons from coaches, and inspiring talks from LIV Golf executives, among other experiences.<\/p>\n

The 2026 season marks the second consecutive year LIV Golf opens its season in Riyadh, a key stop on the league\u2019s international calendar and a symbol of the Kingdom\u2019s growing commitment to elite sport. LIV Golf Riyadh presented by ROSHN Group builds on the momentum of a groundbreaking 2025 event, which saw Cleeks Golf Club<\/a>\u2019s star Adrian Meronk<\/a> claim a wire-to-wire individual victory and Legion XIII<\/a>, captained by Jon Rahm<\/a>, dominate the team competition in the league\u2019s revamped four-score format.<\/p>\n

The 2026 event is set to kickstart a packed global calendar<\/a> that includes confirmed events in Adelaide (February 13-15 ), Singapore (March13-15 ), South Africa (March 20-22), Mexico City (April 17-19), and the United Kingdom (July 24\u201326).<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, with ROSHN Group\u2019s continued partnership, we\u2019re excited to bring our global stars once again to Riyadh for our season opener in 2026,” said Ross Hallett, LIV Golf Executive Vice President, Head of Events. “Last year\u2019s event was the very first LIV Golf event played under lights, and it provided an electrifying start for players and fans alike, delivering a truly unique viewing experience and reinforcing LIV Golf\u2019s commitment to innovation. 2026 will be bigger and better with a focus on providing an unforgeable experience including light shows, a food festival, fan experiences, fair rides, golf activities, hospitality, concerts and more! We are grateful for the support of Golf Saudi and Riyadh Golf Club who provide a world class facility for our players and teams to perform.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Riyadh, Saudi Arabia \u2013 LIV Golf, the global golf league energizing the sport through team competition and innovative…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48940,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[443],"tags":[49,48,622,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-48939","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-golf","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-golf","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48939","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48939"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48939\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48940"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
