LIVERPOOL, UK — May 21, 2026 — If you've ever fancied playing a round of golf in a Premier League team's football stadium, you're in luck. In July, golf and football fans alike can tee off from inside Everton Stadium—while golf’s Open Championship will be taking place at Royal Birkdale, just a few miles away.
According to Everton, Upper Deck Golf—which provides golfing experiences inside sporting stadiums—will be taking over the stadium from July 16 until July 19. Visitors will be able to tee off from high up in the stands and will be aiming for custom greens which will be placed on the pitch below.
This will mark the first time Upper Deck Golf has hosted such an event outside of North America. Since 2017, Upper Deck Golf has staged events throughout the United States at Wrigley Field (Chicago Cubs), Fenway Park (Boston Red Sox), Citizens Bank Park (Philadelphia Phillies), Yankee Stadium, Dodger Stadium, and many others.
Participants in the event at Everton Stadium will also be able to watch live coverage of the 154th edition of The Open.
Aaron Duckmanton, Chief Revenue Officer at Everton Football Club, said: "We are delighted to be bringing Upper Deck Golf to Everton Stadium. It's an experience that has been delivered at some of the world's most iconic venues, and this is a great opportunity for people to see our new home from a completely different perspective."
Upper Deck Golf Managing Partners Marc Bender and Adam Wachter said, “Expanding internationally has always been a major milestone for us, and we couldn't think of a more perfect place to start than the UK. Bringing this unique stadium golf experience to England—and doing so during a historic week like The Open Championship—is incredibly exciting. Everton’s beautiful new stadium provides the ultimate backdrop, and we can't wait to welcome fans to tee off from the stands for the very first time outside of North America. We have seen how much sports fans in the U.S. love our high-energy, immersive experience, and we are honored to bring that same excitement to UK golf and football fans in such a legendary sports region.”
