Grounds, upgraded hospitality tickets expected to sell quickly as championship returns to Caves Valley Golf Club
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — Tickets for the 2025 BMW Championship at Caves Valley Golf Club are available now.
Fans can visit bmwchampionship.com to secure their tickets for the penultimate event of the PGA TOUR’s FedExCup Playoffs, scheduled for Aug. 12-17, 2025. They’ll find grounds tickets as well as upgraded Trophy Club and premium, all-inclusive hospitality options. A limited number of corporate hospitality opportunities are also available.
Fans are encouraged to make their purchase early, as tickets are expected to sell quickly and pricing may vary based on demand. This will be the tournament’s first appearance in Baltimore since 2021, when multiple days sold out as Patrick Cantlay prevailed in a thrilling six-hole playoff to win his first BMW Championship.
“Four years ago, Caves Valley Golf Club and golf’s brightest stars delivered an instant classic,” said Vince Pellegrino, Western Golf Association Senior Vice President of Tournaments. “We’re thrilled to bring this historic championship back to an area with so many dedicated fans. We’re urging everyone to secure their tickets as soon as possible. You won’t want to miss this.”
Youth 15 and under will receive complimentary grounds admission to the BMW Championship when accompanied by a ticketed adult. All patrons, including youth, must have a ticket to access all hospitality venues.
The BMW Championship is one of the PGA TOUR’s most storied events, featuring the top 50 players in the FedExCup standings as they compete for the J.K. Wadley Trophy and a spot in the season-ending TOUR Championship. Past champions include Keegan Bradley, Viktor Hovland, Patrick Cantlay, Justin Thomas, Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods.
In addition to another thrilling finish, the 2025 BMW Championship should deliver a major boost to young men and women nationwide. All proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Evans Scholars Foundation and its mission of awarding full tuition and housing college scholarships to deserving youth caddies.
The BMW Championship raised more than $5.6 million for caddie scholarships in 2021, helping pave the way for the Foundation to send Evans Scholars to the University of Maryland. In 2025, the Foundation is planning to open a Scholarship House where Maryland Evans Scholars can live together as they pursue their degrees.
The BMW Championship has raised more than $50 million for caddie scholarships since BMW became title sponsor in 2007.
Limited Volunteer Opportunities Remain
The more than 2,000 volunteer roles needed for the 2025 BMW Championship are being filled quickly, but fans can still register for a limited number of available positions at bmwchampionship.com/volunteers.
Volunteers will play a critical role during championship week, performing key tasks inside and outside the ropes. Responsibilities include welcoming thousands of patrons each day, assisting corporate hospitality guests, interacting with players and caddies, distributing real-time scoring and statistical data and operating the merchandise tent.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years old except for standard bearers, who must be at least 16 years old. Volunteers are asked to commit to working at least three shifts during tournament week. Shifts range from 4-6 hours, depending on assignment.
