What are the World Golf Awards?

Founded in 2014, the World Golf Awards is the sister organization of World Travel Awards, dedicated specifically to acknowledging and rewarding excellence in golf tourism and services worldwide.

The awards celebrate the finest golf courses, resorts, destinations, and golf-related experiences, with winners selected through voting by professionals working within the golf industry, the media and by the public (golf tourism consumers). Voting period : 22 Feb-6 Oct 2024.


Why Madeira?

Madeira, known for its breathtaking landscapes, mild climate, and hospitable culture, provides the perfect backdrop for this year’s awards.

The island boasts a variety of world-class golf courses, such as the renowned ⛳️ Santo da Serra Golf Club (Robert Trent Jones Senior’s spectacular 27-hole) and the challenging ⛳️ Palheiro Golf (the par 72 championship course winds its way through a pristine landscape of maritime pines and botanical woodland, adorned with lush sub-tropical vegetation), both of which feature stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Hosting the World Golf Awards in this picturesque setting allows attendees to experience golf in a unique and enchanting environment.

Moreover, Madeira has made significant investments in its golf infrastructure, making it not only a beautiful destination to play but also an increasingly popular choice for golf tourism. With its commitment to excellence, it is no surprise that the island has been chosen to host such a prestigious event.
