About Beer Festival Golf Cup

The Beer Festival Golf Cup is the most convivial spring golf event at the Dolomiti Golf Club in Sarnonico, in the heart of the Val di Non. Every year, nestled between the winding roads of the Upper Val di Non and the stunning backdrop of the Brenta Dolomites, around eighty players compete on an 18-hole course in a tournament that blends sport with tradition. The true hallmark is the atmosphere: beer provided by sponsors, sausage snacks along the course, and the classic rib dinner that rounds off the day in high spirits.

Golf and beer at the foot of the Dolomites

The Beer Festival Golf Cup is an annual golf tournament held at the Dolomiti Golf Club in Sarnonico, Val di Non, in the province of Trento (Trentino-Alto Adige). Now a staple of the club's spring calendar, the tournament attracts about eighty players who test their skills on an eighteen-hole course set in one of the most picturesque alpine landscapes in Trentino, framed by the Brenta Dolomites and the forests of the Upper Val di Non.

A day of conviviality

More than just a high-stakes competition, the Beer Festival Golf Cup is designed as a day of sport and celebration. The format features an 18-hole competition divided into categories, with Gross, Net, Senior, and Ladies rankings, alongside the essential special Nearest to the Pin and Longest Drive contests that add an extra touch of challenge.

What makes the event unique is its connection to beer, as the name suggests: between the 9th and 10th holes, participants find a refreshment station with sausages and beer, while the post-game awards ceremony is followed by the classic dinner featuring ribs and beer provided by the sponsors. It is a perfect way to turn the day into a social gathering for members, enthusiasts, and guests.
