2031 Ryder Cup at Camiral · Official Host Venue

Golf's Greatest Team Competition Returns to Spain

Thirty-four years after Seve Ballesteros captained Europe to victory at Valderrama, golf’s greatest team competition returns to Spain in 2031 at Camiral, a Quinta do Lago Resort.

A Historic Milestone for Catalonia & Spanish Golf

Purpose-Built From Day One to Stage Golf's Most Electrifying Spectacle

When Denis O'Brien, Ángel Gallardo, and Neil Coles first walked the forested valleys of Caldes de Malavella in the late 1990s, the Stadium Course was explicitly engineered with natural spectator amphitheatres, championship sightlines, and dramatic closing holes capable of hosting the Ryder Cup. In 2031, that founding vision becomes reality as Girona, the Costa Brava, and Barcelona welcome the world — 34 years after Valderrama 1997.
