The DP World Tour Championship takes place on 12–15 November 2026 at Jumeirah Golf Estates. Its venue is the Earth Course, where spectators can walk alongside the players. If you usually watch golf on television, this is a different perspective: watch a shot, move to the next hole and follow the round as it develops.
This is the Race to Dubai season finale. Fifty players qualifying after the playoff event in Abu Dhabi will compete in Dubai. The Earth Course decides the outcome of a whole season, so there is more at stake than victory in a single tournament.
The organiser includes access to the 18-hole course and Championship Village, with food, drinks, merchandise and entertainment, in General Admission. This lets you combine watching sport with taking a break; you need not follow one group all day.
How to watch the tournament
Golf fans could choose a few players they want to follow and plan around their tee times. On a first visit, try another approach: follow a group for a while, then stay at one hole to watch different players tackle the same challenge. This reveals tactics as well as the eventual score.
If you are visiting with others, agree how closely you want to follow the competition. One person may enjoy every shot; another may simply want to experience the course. Arrange a break and meeting place so both approaches work within the same day.
Choosing a ticket
Alongside General Admission, Ticket+ includes a dedicated viewing area by the 17th hole. Compare categories according to how you want to watch: walking more of the course or having access to a particular viewing zone.
Check the official tournament page for tickets and the precise terms for your chosen day. We also recommend comfortable walking shoes: a day on a golf course differs from an evening in a stadium with a fixed seat.
Travelling to Jumeirah Golf Estates
If you are coming from your hotel with friends or colleagues, enquire about a transfer to the tournament and a return journey. Include your chosen date and the full name Jumeirah Golf Estates, Earth Course. Plan your return around the round you want to watch to the end.
In January, a different course hosts the Dubai Desert Classic. It is a separate tournament at Emirates Golf Club. Compare dates if golf is the main reason for your trip.
