Top Spectator Tips

Tips ahead of your visit to The Belfry.

TIP ONE: UTILISE THE FREE PUBLIC SHUTTLE

In line with our Green Drive objectives, The Betfred British Masters will operate a FREE shuttle service from immediately outside Birmingham International Station and will drop spectators at the Bus Terminus in the Public Car Park.

The services will operate from Thursday 29th August – Sunday 1st September inclusive.

Please consider using this service to help reduce the event’s carbon emissions and congestion on the roads.

Bus Timings:

Thursday & Friday: 06:30 – 20:00 (to be confirmed)

Saturday & Sunday: Approx. 6:00* – 20:00.

(*this will align to gate opening times, which are 30 minutes before the 1st tee) 

One bus every 15 minutes during peak times (08:00 to 12:00 and 16:00 to 20:00 respectively), reducing to one every 30 minutes in between.

Please keep in mind that the bus shuttle service is subject to regular road congestion and timings may vary slightly from the above.

Buses operating on this service will have accessible access and there will be an accessible shuttle running from the front of the public car park to the main entrance for guests unable to use the footbridge.

TIP TWO: EXPLORE THE PGA VILLAGE

There's plenty going on in the PGA Village throughout the week including simulator challenges, fan Q&As with Andrew Cotter and Di Stewart and live music on the Saturday and Sunday. For a full breakdown, please see here.

TIP THREE: STAY HYDRATED - BRING A WATER BOTTLE

To ensure you stay hydrated throughout the event, it is advisable to bring along a water bottle. Water bottle refill stations are available in the PGA Village and around the course.

TIP FOUR: LOCATE FIRST AID AND TOILET FACIILITIES

For your convenience and safety, there is a designated first-aid centre in the PGA Village. Toilets can be found in the PGA Village, behind the 1st Green, between the 6th and 7th green, and between the 14th green and 15th hole. Familiarize yourself with these locations to ensure easy access when needed.
