Global golf travel will take center stage this week at the 2026 PGA Show as premier international destinations, resorts, tour operators and travel services convene on the PGA Show floor in the Golf Travel Pavilion.
Designed to connect PGA of America Golf Professionals and industry leaders with top-tier golf travel partners, the Golf Travel Pavilion will feature leading destinations such as Austria, the Dominican Republic, Ireland, Portugal, Scotland and South Africa, alongside golf tour companies and travel product providers supporting the continued growth of golf tourism worldwide.
“Travel not only helps with relationships, but it also helps a club’s overall business,” says Starkville (Mississippi) Country Club Director of Golf Zach Tate, PGA.
“Planning early is key.”
Attendees also will have the opportunity to engage directly with renowned golf travel operators such as Haversham & Baker, Premier Golf, IBT Golf Travel and Guatemala’s Luxury Fish & Golf, as well as hospitality experts from Omni Hotels & Resorts, the Official Hotel & Resort of the PGA of America.
Building on the PGA Show’s expanding focus on golf travel, the International Golf Travel Market (IGTM) has become a supporting partner of the Golf Travel Pavilion and will have a dedicated presence on the show floor at Booth 3691. The growing partnership underscores a shared commitment to elevating golf travel education, business development and global connections for PGA Professionals and industry stakeholders.
As part of the collaboration, IGTM will present a featured, curated session on The Clubhouse Stage offering insight into global golf travel trends, destination development and consumer demand shaping the future of golf tourism. The session, held Wednesday at 4 p.m., will be led by IGTM, with Omni Hotels & Resorts and Algarve Portugal, exploring the evolving golf travel market and emerging opportunities for PGA Professionals to drive engagement and participation through travel-focused offerings.
