The 2026 Butterfield Bermuda Championship returns to the island’s premier courses in early May, bringing a wave of golf enthusiasts from around the world to Hamilton and surrounding towns. Local fans can plan their visit early, as the championship’s official tee‑time schedule is now live on the Bermuda Golf Association’s website. The event will feature the island’s signature links at the Royal St. George’s and the Ocean Course, with morning sessions starting at 7:00 a.m. and the final round hosted on Saturday afternoon.
Broadcast coverage will reach a wide audience, with the tournament being simulcast on the national TV channel, Channel 9, and streamed live on the island’s sports network, Bermuda Live. Viewers will also find a dedicated app offering live commentary, shot‑by‑shot statistics and interactive features that highlight local players’ performances.
In addition to the on‑course action, the Bermuda Tourism Board has announced a series of hospitality packages that include complimentary greens fees, accommodation at selected hotels and guided tours of the island’s historic sites. The packages aim to boost visitor numbers during the week of the championship and showcase Bermuda’s hospitality.
Local officials point out that the event is not only a sporting highlight but also an economic driver. “The Butterfield Championship brings a significant influx of visitors, supporting hotels, restaurants and retail outlets,” says Tourism Minister Dr. Marisa Greene. “We’re excited to welcome the world to our island and to share its unique culture and golf heritage.”
