2025 NI Legends champion Markus Brier tees off.

About

The NI Legends returns to Galgorm for the second time from September 2-6, 2026, continuing a strong tradition of tournament golf at the Northern Ireland venue.

A proven championship venue, the 2026 NI legends at Galgorm will be the 21st international golf tournament staged there. Galgorm hosted the 2020 Irish Open, four World Invitationals (2019, 2021-23), two NI Legends and 14 NI Opens. The championship Castle Course is set in a mature parkland setting, with the River Braid and River Maine featuring prominently.

Defending champion Markus Brier returns in 2026 to a venue that consistently requires a premium on accuracy and course management. A host of household names will compete at Galgorm, including the mikes of former US Open champion Michael Campbell, former Ryder Cup players and multiple tournament winners. The event is also one of the select tournaments offering The Legends Experience, giving amateur golfers the opportunity to compete alongside Legends Tour professionals under tournament conditions, complemented by official hospitality throughout the week.

The Barn Hospitality at NI Legends

Experience the NI Legends from the most social seat in the house

Set against the backdrop of world-class golf at Galgorm, The Barn Hospitality offers a vibrant, all-day experience that blends championship action with exceptional food, drink and atmosphere.

From the moment you arrive, The Barn becomes your base for the day. Enjoy a relaxed yet refined dining journey, beginning with morning coffee and breakfast, followed by a generous buffet lunch and a selection of afternoon bites, all complemented by complimentary beers and wines served throughout the day.

Between moments on the course, immerse yourself in The Barn’s lively social setting, with interactive experiences including a golf simulator, darts, shuffleboard and pool, creating an atmosphere that is as entertaining as the tournament itself.

Step outside and take your place on a dedicated raised viewing platform overlooking the 18th green, where the drama builds and every shot matters. It’s the perfect vantage point to soak up the energy of tournament play as legends of the game compete for victory.

Whether you’re hosting clients, bringing together colleagues or enjoying a day out with friends, The Barn Hospitality offers a relaxed, high-quality way to experience the NI Legends without missing a moment.
