LIV Golf UK by JCB 2026 to take place from 24-26 July 2026

Three-day Grounds Passes and Club 54 Hospitality Tickets are now available during exclusive early bird window.

Rocester, United Kingdom – LIV Golf, the global golf league energizing the sport through team competition and innovative fan experiences, has announced it will return to JCB Golf & Country Club from July 24-26, 2026 for the third edition of LIV Golf UK by JCB.

The event will once again see the League’s 54 international stars compete in simultaneous individual and team competition across three days of fan-fueled action at the stunning venue in Rocester, Staffordshire.

Early bird tickets for LIV Golf UK by JCB 2026 are now available, including a select number of Club 54 hospitality tickets and three-day ground passes to enjoy a festival of world-class golf, live music, and family-friendly experiences.

LIV Golf UK by JCB 2026 will mark the league’s fifth event in the UK since its inception in 2022, a testament to LIV Golf’s ongoing growth and global expansion. JCB Golf & Country Club first hosted LIV Golf in July 2024, drawing over 37,000 fans for three days of elite golf and electric off-course entertainment in enjoyable summer conditions. The UK events have continued LIV Golf’s trend of attracting new audiences to the sport, with nearly 30% of attendees being new to golf. Through an exclusive partnership with ITV, viewers in the UK also enjoy free-to-air live coverage of all LIV Golf events via ITV and ITVX, bringing the League’s global stars and exciting competition directly to millions of homes across the country.

“In many ways, the UK is our spiritual home – it’s where it all began for LIV Golf," said LIV Golf Executive Vice President, Head of Events Ross Hallett. "To see how far we’ve come, establishing ourselves as a major global sports league only three years since our first event is something we’re extremely proud of. British fans have been with us since day one, and we’re excited to continue sharing the LIV Golf story with JCB through this extended partnership. We are grateful to Graeme Macdonald and the team at JCB who share our vision for delivering the very best experiences both on and off the golf course for our fans, players and teams.”

“Since the JCB Golf and Country Club opened in 2019, it has established an enviable reputation for hosting professional golf tournaments, culminating in the inaugural and very successful ‘LIV Golf UK by JCB’ event in 2024, said JCB’s CEO Graeme Macdonald. "JCB was delighted to sponsor that first LIV Golf tournament and as we prepare to host LIV Golf for a second time this weekend, we are excited to be creating a new piece of history by extending our partnership into 2026. JCB’s motto is: ‘Always Looking For A Better Way’ and I am in no doubt that this year’s tournament will be better and bigger than the 2024 event. We have every expectation that extending into 2026 for a third year will build on the successful partnership already established between JCB and LIV Golf, for the benefit of both parties.”

Fans are gearing up to see many of golf’s biggest names return to JCB Golf & Country Club this week, as Spanish star captain Jon Rahm and his Legion XIIIsquad look to repeat their performances from last year when they swpt the 2024 individual and team titles at LIV Golf UK by JCB. They’ll be contested by another star-studded field, headlined by home team Majesticks GC consisting of captains Lee Westwood, Henrik Stenson, Ian Poulter alongside teammate Sam Horsfield.

LIV Golf UK by JCB will see a strong contingent of UK talent including Paul Casey (Crushers GC), Tyrrell Hatton and Tom McKibbin (both Legion XIII), Richard Bland (Cleeks Golf Club), and Graeme McDowell (Smash GC). They’ll be joined by international stars including 2025 season points leader Joaquin Niemann (Torque GC), Bryson DeChambeau (Crushers GC), Brooks Koepka (Smash GC), Sergio Garcia (Fireballs GC), Cameron Smith (Ripper GC), and Dustin Johnson (4Aces GC), amongst many others.

The JCB Golf & Country Club opened in 2019 and was designed by internationally renowned Robin Hiseman of European Golf Design. It is built on a 240-acre site adjacent to the JCB World HQ and its signature 17th hole is situated on a converted island and is a breathtaking 255-yard Par 3. Fans will enjoy the scenic and challenging layout delivered inside the ropes, while off the course, activities for all ages will engage spectators throughout the weekend.
