## About this tender

The Open is an iconic Championship in world golf. Since 1860, The Open has been played over some of the world’s most cherished links courses and has produced a remarkable legacy of great champions. It is the oldest and most international championship in professional golf and the Claret Jug – first presented in 1873 – is one of the most iconic trophies in all of sport.

Three of the current nine Open venues are located in the North West of England, and two in Liverpool City Region (Royal Liverpool at Hoylake and Royal Birkdale in Southport). The event is held in the NWE region on average three times a decade.

The R&A (Open Golf organisers) have announced that the 156th Open will take place at Royal Birkdale between 12th July and 19th July 2026.

Sefton last hosted the Open Golf Championship in July 2017, also at Royal Birkdale. The Open’s organisers, the Royal & Ancient (R&A), reported that c235,000 people attended the event which generated approximately £21 million for the Sefton economy and a further £35m for the City Region.
