Family Fun at the RBC Canadian Open

Two years ago, the four of us went to the RBC Canadian Open at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville and we are STILL talking about all the fun we had! From Golf Digest "cover shots" to chipping and putting competitions, the kids had a blast while Paul was all about action on the course! We had such a great family day and learned a lot about golf too!

As this year's Canadian Open is fast approaching and running Monday July 20- Sunday July 26, families should be looking at this as a perfect way to spend a summer weekday or weekend with the kids! Ticket prices are reasonable for a day of fun in the sun, and kids with a Junior Pass are free!

Advanced Price (Before July 19) $20 – Early Week Grounds (Mon – Wed)
$59.95 – AnyDay Grounds (One Day)

 Gate Price (July 20-26) $26 – Early Week Grounds (Mon – Wed)
$79.95 – AnyDay Grounds (One Day)
