Myrtle Beach Gears Up for Exciting Second Annual Classic!
Hey there, Myrtle Beach locals and visitors! Get ready for an unforgettable time as the second annual Myrtle Beach Classic rolls into town from May 8 to May 11, 2025. This thrilling golf tournament will be held at the beautiful Dunes Golf and Beach Club, and you won’t want to miss out on the action!
What You Can Expect
With around 50,000 attendees expected to show up, Tournament Director Darren Nelson has got big things planned this year. Tickets are still up for grabs, starting at just $30 for Wednesday and going up to $65 for Saturday. If you prefer a basic week pass, you can snag one for only $220.
And here’s something that parents will surely appreciate: kids aged 15 or under can join in on the fun for free if they’re with a ticket-holding adult. Talk about a fantastic family outing!
Awesome Amenities and Options
For those looking to elevate their experience, there are some exciting luxury seating options available, including inside-the-ropes tickets that allow you to be closer to the action, and access to the clubhouse for an exclusive feel. Of course, if you’re driving in, be sure to purchase a parking pass in advance for $15 per day, as all vehicles will need to park at Lot B, located at 2400 N Oak St. at the former Myrtle Square Mall site.
Don’t forget, there will be no parking available directly at the Dunes Golf and Beach Club, so plan accordingly, and enjoy the shuttle service right to the entrance!
Star-Studded Celebrity Appearances
A Thrilling Competition
The Myrtle Beach Classic is boasting a $4 million purse, but just a heads up—a separate championship happening concurrently, the Truist Championship in Philadelphia, will feature a whopping $20 million purse. Still, don’t let that distract you from the pleasure of watching top golfers compete at our lovely beachside venue. Many of the best PGA pros are expected to head to Philly instead.
Also on the agenda is the Q golf tournament, full of celebrities and influencers, taking place in March 2025. The winners of this event will get the exciting opportunity to qualify for the Myrtle Beach Classic, adding a little extra thrill to both competitions.
More Fun With Food and Activities
Putting on a fantastic festival atmosphere is the key for the 2025 Classic! Prepare for an expanded Fan Zone, featuring a medley of food options from local eateries and vendors, ensuring there’s something for everyone’s taste buds. And for fun in the sun, don’t miss out on the brand-new merchandise area, the Sand Bucket Surf Shop, which will offer unique beach-themed items that are perfect for souvenirs or gifts!
Music lovers will have plenty to groove to too: Chairmen of the Board will perform on Thursday, with Tyler Hubbard returning for a performance on Saturday. This year promises to be packed with interactive events and enhanced viewing options, including general admission and standing-room access directly behind the 18th green.
A Positive Community Impact
So, get ready to mark your calendars, gather your friends and family, and prepare for a super-fun four days at the Myrtle Beach Classic. With golf, celebrities, music, great food, and good vibes, it’s shaping up to be an event you won’t want to miss!
