Get ready for a golfing extravaganza like no other! The 2026 BMW International Open is set to tee off with a bang, featuring Germany’s finest golfers and a festive Christmas discount on tickets that you won’t want to miss. But here’s where it gets exciting: Stephan Jäger, Martin Kaymer, and Matti Schmid are gearing up to grace the greens at Golfclub München Eichenried from July 1st to 5th, 2026. And this is the part most people miss—you can snag a 10% discount on general admission and VIP tickets until December 24th, 2025. Plus, there’s a brand-new after-work ticket option for those looking to catch the action later in the day.
For over three decades, the BMW International Open has been a cornerstone of the DP World Tour, blending world-class golf, Bavarian charm, and the sheer thrill of the sport. As the only DP World Tour event in Germany, it holds a special place in the hearts of players and fans alike. The 37th edition promises to be a highlight, with three of Germany’s top golfers already confirmed. Stephan Jäger, a PGA TOUR standout, is particularly thrilled to return to his roots after missing the 2025 event due to the birth of his second son. ‘Playing in my hometown is a rare privilege,’ he shared, ‘and I can’t wait to share this experience with family and friends.’
But here’s where it gets controversial: Martin Kaymer, the two-time Major winner and youngest champion in tournament history, holds a unique record as the only German to have won this event. At just 23 years and 177 days old, he clinched the title in 2008, but is age truly just a number in golf? Kaymer’s passion for the tournament goes beyond records. ‘The dedication of everyone involved makes this event truly special,’ he noted. ‘It’s a joy to be part of something so well-organized and vibrant.’
Matti Schmid, currently Germany’s highest-ranked golfer, shares this sentiment. Growing up watching the pros at Eichenried, he now inspires the next generation. After finishing as the top German player in 2025, Schmid is eager for 2026: ‘The atmosphere was electric last year, and I hope to see even more fans this time around.’
The Christmas discount applies to day tickets, tournament passes, and Fairway Club tickets, excluding already discounted options like youth or student tickets. Your ticket includes a free shuttle service from Ismaning station and complimentary parking, making the experience seamless. Children 14 and under enjoy free entry, and the Pro-Am tournament on July 1st is open to all at no cost.
Here’s a thought-provoking question for you: With the BMW International Open being the only DP World Tour stop in Germany, is it doing enough to grow the sport domestically, or should more tournaments be hosted to inspire the next generation of golfers? Let us know in the comments!
