Ireland to host National Championship of the World Corporate Golf Challenge. Irish Businesses to Compete on World Stage in hashtagBeijing in October 2026.
Today marks an exciting milestone for Excelerator Luxury Golf Tours in Ireland.
We are proud to announce that we have secured the exclusive partnership agreement to become Ireland’s Executive Partner and Official Licensee for the World Corporate Golf Challenge (WCGC) the world’s leading corporate golf tournament operating across more than 30 countries for over three decades.
Through this partnership, hashtagIreland will host its National Championship, where corporate teams of two, will play for the honour of representing Ireland at the 2026 World Final in hashtagBeijing.
With over 30 years of history, the WCGC has become the most prestigious and widely recognised corporate golf tournament globally. In this competition, executives from 34 countries come together to compete, connect and experience an unprecedented event alongside exclusive brands. This year the final is in Beijing.
This championship will bring together Irish senior business leaders through meaningful competition while connecting Ireland to a global business network.
Ireland’s reputation as one of the world’s great golf nations – demonstrated through hosting The Open Championship hashtagPortrush and the upcoming The Ryder Cup at Adare Manor – makes it a natural home for a corporate championship leading to international representation.
Our focus now is simple:
• Deliver a world-class National Championship
• Create meaningful value for corporate Ireland.
The Ireland National Final will take place at Killeen Castle – One of Ireland’s Top Championship Courses on Friday 21 August 2026, bringing together business leaders from across the island of Ireland to compete for the opportunity to represent the country on the global stage.
Business executives you may wish to mark the date in your calendars to enter a team of two players. Overseas based hashtagBusinessExecutives from International businesses with offices in Ireland are welcome to enter the championship too with the option to add on more rounds of golf during your trip.
We also welcome conversations with organisations interested in partnering with us to support and showcase this prestigious international event.
We look forward to working with corporate partners and business leaders as we bring this exceptional global competition to Ireland.
