Media Release:
Dabble is bringing its signature Party Hole to an exciting new location for the 2026 BMW Australian PGA Championship, taking over The Lakes Golf Club in Sydney from November 26–29, and bringing Dabble’s on-app community experience to life once again.
After creating unforgettable highlights and experiences in front of sellout crowds at Royal Queensland Golf Club in the past two championships, this year’s Dabble Party Hole – Where Parties Are Made - will be the 176m par-3 15th, part of the famous back nine at The Lakes.
Bringing music, entertainment and world-class golf together across all four days of the tournament, which is returning to Sydney for the first time in 28 years, the Dabble Party Hole will be a focal point of the championship’s renowned vibrant, family friendly atmosphere.
Tickets are on sale now to the Dabble Party Hole’s hospitality experiences which will provide golf fans with the best vantage points to get close to the action.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Dabble back to the BMW Australian PGA Championship,” said PGA of Australia General Manager, Major Events and Operations Antonia Beggs.
“Our Dabble Party Hole has quickly become one of the most exciting, and fun, experiences in Australian golf and the move to the 15th hole at The Lakes will give us a fantastic new setting.
“A Party Hole like this one isn’t something Sydney has seen before and we can’t wait to pack it out with fans enjoying the atmosphere and being almost in the middle of the action.
“It will be a great spot to catch up with friends, settle in and watch some of the best players in the world take on a challenging par-3.”
Dabble is excited to continue delivering one of the most unique fan experiences in Australian sport.
Dabble Chief Marketing Officer Emilie Jirsch said: “At Dabble, we’re all about bringing people together by creating unique experiences that are fun, social and full of good banter.
“The Party Hole reflects the same energy that people love about our Dabble's social betting experience.
“It’s all about giving fans a great place to enjoy the golf, soak up the atmosphere and be part of the action.
“We’ve loved being part of the BMW Australian PGA Championship over the past two years and we’re excited to bring the experience to The Lakes in 2026.”
The Dabble Party Hole offers two hospitality experiences to enjoy great views, a buzzing atmosphere, live DJ entertainment, and the excitement of players taking on one of the most talked-about holes on the course.
The premium Champions Lounge is located directly behind the 15th green offering spectacular elevated views back to the tee.
Guests will enjoy course entry and lounge access, lunch and afternoon tea and a premium five-hour beverage package.
Next door, also overlooking the 15th green, guests at the Champions Deck will receive course entry and deck access, a buffet lunch and afternoon snack, and a five-hour beverage package.
The BMW Australian PGA Championship is co-sanctioned by the Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia and the DP World Tour with a list of confirmed starters that includes former champions Adam Scott and Cam Smith.
