Ryder Cup 2031: Everything You Need to Know
The Ryder Cup 2031 already has a venue and it will be in Girona, right in the heart of Catalonia. For those of us who love golf, this news means much more than just a tournament: it is the opportunity to experience one of the greatest sporting events in the world in a unique setting such as the PGA Catalunya Resort, today known as Camiral, a Quinta Do Lago Resort.
It’s not just about attending the most important golf competition, but about enjoying everything that surrounds the experience: an internationally renowned resort, legendary courses, and the chance to combine it with other golf destinations in Catalonia, from the Costa Brava to Barcelona.
At DMC Society, we design exclusive packages that turn both this event and any golf trip in Catalonia into an unforgettable experience: luxury hotel accommodation, private chauffeured transfers, rounds at iconic courses, and cultural and gastronomic activities to complete the journey.
The Ryder Cup: History and Legacy
The Ryder Cup is much more than a golf tournament. It is held every two years and pits the teams of Europe and the United States against each other in a unique format that sparks passion. It is, without a doubt, one of the most impactful sporting events worldwide: over 600 million viewers follow it on television, and it generates an enormous economic impact at each host destination.
Spain already experienced the magic of the Ryder Cup in 1997, when Seve Ballesteros led the European team at Real Club Valderrama (Cádiz). It was the first time the tournament was played on continental soil outside the British Isles, and that victory was forever engraved in the memory of all fans.
Now, almost 35 years later, the Ryder Cup will return to Spain, and it will do so in Catalonia. PGA Catalunya Resort, located in Caldes de Malavella (Girona), will host the 2031 edition, confirming the international projection of this destination as a benchmark in the world of golf.
PGA Catalunya Resort: Camiral, a Quinta Do Lago Resort.
PGA Catalunya Resort, now renamed Camiral, a Quinta Do Lago Resort, is much more than a golf course: it is a luxury complex that combines sport, nature, wellness, and top-level hospitality. It is located just one hour from Barcelona and 15 minutes from Girona, making it an accessible enclave surrounded by cultural and gastronomic attractions.
The resort has two world-class golf courses:
- Stadium Course: considered one of the best in Europe, it will be the stage of the Ryder Cup 2031. Designed by Neil Coles and Ángel Gallardo, it offers a challenging layout among lakes, pines, and strategically placed bunkers. It has hosted multiple European Tour events and is a must for any golf enthusiast.
- Tour Course: more accessible but equally spectacular, surrounded by Mediterranean nature. Perfect for those who want to alternate the intensity of the Stadium with a more relaxed experience.
In addition, the resort features a complete Golf Hub, ideal for perfecting the swing with advanced technology, as well as wellness facilities, spa, gourmet gastronomy, and five-star hotels.
In our golf packages in Catalonia, we include the possibility of training at its driving range, enjoying exclusive treatments, and relaxing in unique settings after a day of sport.
Economic and Tourism Impact of the Ryder Cup 2031
The choice of Girona as host of the Ryder Cup is no coincidence. The tournament will bring more than 250,000 visitors during the week of competition and an unprecedented global television audience. The economic impact is estimated to exceed 1.3 billion euros, with benefits extending to tourism, hospitality, and the international promotion of Catalonia as a sports destination.
For fans, the Ryder Cup will be a historic event; and for luxury travelers, yet another opportunity to discover Catalonia from a different perspective: combining golf, culture, gastronomy, and relaxation in one trip.

Beyond the Ryder Cup 2031: Catalonia as a Year-Round Golf Destination
Catalonia will not only host the Ryder Cup, it is also a well-established destination for golf lovers all year round:
- Real Club de Golf El Prat (Barcelona): with more than 100 years of history and 45 holes designed by Greg Norman, it is one of the most emblematic clubs in Europe.
- Golf Costa Brava (Santa Cristina d’Aro, Girona): among pine and cork oak forests, it offers a picturesque course in the heart of the Costa Brava.
- Empordà Golf (Girona): with Links and Forest courses, designed by Robert von Hagge, it is another reference in Girona golf.
Each of these courses adds a different touch: history, tradition, Mediterranean landscapes, or innovative design.
At DMC Society, we create tailor-made itineraries that allow you to enjoy several of them in the same trip, always with private transport and luxury accommodations to ensure maximum comfort.
