The Memorial Tournament showcases some of the best professional golfers in the world, and it happens right here in our backyard. Founded and hosted by golf legend and Columbus-native Jack Nicklaus, it’s played each year at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin.

The 2024 tournament will take place from Monday, June 3-Sunday, June 9, which means it’s time to tee up the details.

🏌️ Participating golfers

Attendees will have the opportunity to see the pros up close and personal during the tournament. Walk to different holes to support your favorite golfer along the way, with notable names like:
  • Viktor Hovland: The Norwegian golfer who won the 2023 Memorial Tournament will return to the course this year.
  • Rory McIlroy: He’s a four-time major champion with the following wins — the 2011 U.S. Open, 2012 PGA Championship, 2014 Open Championship, and 2014 PGA Championship.
  • Jason Day: The Austrailian pro who won the PGA Championship in 2015 now calls Columbus home.

Parking passes can be purchased for $25.

⛳ Know before you go

If you’ve never attended a professional golf tournament before, here are some things to keep in mind:
  • When you see hands in the air, it means it’s time to stop and quiet down as the golfer takes his shot.
  • Casual golf wear is encouraged. Think: Polo shirts, golf skirts, pants, or Bermuda shorts.
  • Collapsible chairs are permitted without chair bags.
  • The following items are prohibited: Coolers, posters, video cameras, iPads, and backpacks (view the bag policy).

  • Hanna, here. I had dinner at Cento in German Village for the first time last night, and the Italian food and patio ambiance was top tier. Pro tip: The patio is first come, first serve, so try to arrive as close to 5 p.m. as you can for the best chance at outdoor seating. Make a reservation for indoors.
