BENTON HARBOR, MICH. (Nov. 13, 2017) – The PGA of America announced its release of holiday ticket packages for the 2018 KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship will be available for purchase. From Nov. 13 – Dec. 31, families, millennials and golf fans can take advantage of special ticket pricing and advance savings on rounds of golf at Harbor Shores, the home course of the KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship. The 2018 KitchenAid Senior PGA Championship will take place May 22-27, 2018 and will feature the world’s greatest senior players, and an array of family-friendly experiences.
The PGA of America will debut an enhanced spectator experience at the Makers Trail 19th Hole, an upgraded viewing area next to the 16th green and 17th tee. Through a newly formed partnership with the Southwest Michigan Tourist Council’s Makers Trail, the 19th Hole will exclusively feature local beer, wine and spirits from Southwest Michigan to highlight the region’s wide variety of craft breweries and master wine makers. Tickets to the Makers Trail 19th Hole are a featured holiday package.
“We are introducing a number of new initiatives to the Championship in 2018 to celebrate local businesses and bring a more diverse audience to Harbor Shores,” said Championship Director Ryan Ogle. “Our partnership with the Southwest Michigan Tourist Council provides the perfect opportunity to showcase the Southwest Michigan community and bring attention to our region’s reputation for a growing craft brewery scene. We encourage fans and local residents to purchase advance tickets to take advantage of cost savings before the New Year.”
