Mourne GC Open Week 2026
Mourne Golf Club Open Week (July 13-17, 2026) has now concluded with a week-long celebration of golf with members and visitors from all over Ireland competing on the Championship and Annesley Links at Royal County Down.
Open Week Entry Criteria: Amateur Golfers; Over 18’s (on day of competition); Members of Golf Ireland (iGolf excluded). General release of time slots to Golf Ireland members via this website at 09:00am on Tuesday 5th May 2026. Note time limit of 10 minutes for a booking to be made and full payment required at the time of booking. A valid Golf Ireland membership number will be required (CDH Number) when booking and the Golf Ireland membership card must be shown on arrival to Mourne Golf Club. Non Golf Ireland members will not be permitted to play in Open Week competitions.
All competitions are co-ordinated through Mourne Golf Club and any queries should be directed to Mourne GC using the contact details below rather than Royal County Down.
Mourne Golf Club Open Week is extremely popular and bookings will be made on a first come, first served basis. We have designated tee times for each Open competition and when timesheets are full, we cannot take any further bookings.
Refund policy:
The club standard policy is that green fee payments are non-refundable. In the event of course closures a full refund will be made to the impacted golfers.
Daily Presentations
Please note presentations will be held on evening of Friday July 17 at the end of Open Week 2026.
