To celebrate the 15th Birthday of the British Golf Museum we are welcoming visitors into the museum for FREE on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th September.

We are celebrating 100 years of collecting and 15 years of innovation at this 5 star award winning visitor attraction. 

After officially opening to great critical acclaim on 19th September 1990, the museum won 7 major awards and is currently one of 52 visitor attractions that have reached the five star standard in the Scottish Tourist Board’s Visitor Attractions Grading Scheme.

Imaginative displays and stunning interactives will add to your enjoyment of this attraction and its amazing collections.  There is a new exhibition, St Andrews Open Championships, 1946-2005, which focuses on the prizes, the players and the people who attend The Open.  Practice your putting in The 18th Hole with replica clubs and balls from the last 175 years and try on period golf costume.  Add to this our new interactive displays with rare black and white footage, footage from The Open Championships dating back to 1926 and the chance to test you golfing knowledge in our interactive quiz, and you have the perfect break from playing golf!
