From July 11th to 14th, 2024, the picturesque Evian Resort Golf Club will once again host The Amundi Evian Championship, Europe’s only major golf tournament.
And what a bash it’s going to be! This year marks the 30th anniversary of the tournament, and it’s shaping up to be an unforgettable spectacle.
So grab your finest attire, because you’re invited to join the celebration!
Reliving History and Making New Memories
Let’s start with the basics: why should you care? Well, my friends, this isn’t just any golf tournament.
Last year, Céline Boutier became the first Frenchwoman to hoist the trophy, and now she’s back to defend her title. Imagine the scenes if she pulls off a repeat victory on home soil—oh, the drama!
Joining her will be 132 of the world’s top golfers, each vying for a slice of glory on The Champions Course.
With a history spanning three decades, this year’s tournament promises to be just as thrilling, intense, and awe-inspiring as any before it.
Premium Viewing: The Only Way to Go
For those who truly want to soak in the experience, a Premium ticket is the golden ticket—quite literally.
These tickets grant you access to the Panoramic Lounge, a swanky hospitality area with a stunning view of the 16th hole and Lake Geneva.
Trust me, there’s no better way to enjoy the tournament than from this perch.
Think of it as having your cake and eating it too, with VIP gifts, snacks, and drinks flowing throughout the day.
All this for a modest €120 per day for adults and €60 for the young ones (10-17 years).
Kids under 10? They get in for free, provided they’re accompanied by an adult ticket holder.
But don’t dawdle—these Premium tickets were snapped up faster than you can say “birdie” last year. Limited numbers mean you’ll need to act fast to secure your spot.
Flexibility with the Live Ticket
If planning isn’t your strong suit, or if you prefer a more spontaneous approach, the Live ticket offers great flexibility.
It’s undated, meaning you can decide on the day whether to head to the course. Prices start at €25 for a single day, scaling up to €65 for all four days.
And here’s a sweet deal: kids under 18 get in for free. Buy online to skip the queues and get straight to the action.
Visual Splendour: The 2024 Identity
This year’s visual identity is as dynamic as the players themselves. Picture the vibrant “rose prunoise” blending seamlessly with peach tones and the lush green of the course.
These colours symbolise both the softness and the sheer power of the sport. And let’s not forget the ever-present “30,” celebrating the tournament’s milestone anniversary.
Boutier, with her steely determination and effortless grace, perfectly embodies this year’s theme of performance and celebration.
It’s a tribute to the tournament’s history, its commitment to women’s sports, and its forward-looking vision.
Getting There: Easy and Convenient
Whether you’re arriving by train, plane, boat, or car, getting to Evian Resort Golf Club is a breeze.
The local train station is just minutes away, while Geneva International Airport is about a 1 hour 40 minute drive.
For those taking the scenic route, a boat from Lausanne to Evian takes a mere 35 minutes. Driving? There’s a parking lot with a shuttle service to whisk you to the course.
