Can I purchase tickets to the AIG Women's Open from another website?

The only official sources of tickets for the AIG Women’s Open are via AIGWomensOpen.com. Any tickets made available on websites such as Viagogo, Safetickets.net, Stubhub, eBay or Gumtree are not done so with the permission of The R&A and are subject to unregulated pricing. We have also encountered issues in the past in which photoshopped tickets or cancelled tickets were sold via these platforms. We strongly recommend that customers do not purchase tickets from third party re-sellers as tickets sold on these sites are likely to be refused entry to the Championship.  

Where can I find information about the accessibility provisions at the AIG Women’s Open?

All information available can be found in our event accessibility guide.

 

We will continue to add information to this guide as we get closer to the Championship.

To transfer a ticket, click on the three dots in the bottom right corner of the ticket, select ‘Transfer’, and entering the email address of the person you wish to transfer the ticket to.

How will my recipient know I sent a ticket?

If you transfer a ticket to a guest, friend or family member that has never created an account on the app before, they will receive an email to invite them to download the AIGWO Tickets app and create an account.

If you transfer a ticket to a friend or family member that already has the app, they will receive a notification once the ticket is available on their app.

Where can I find the list of tickets sent / received?
Under the ‘Ticket Transfer’ and ‘Transfer History’ tab on the app menu, you will find a list of all tickets sent and received, including the name of the sender or recipient.
I have purchased several tickets to the AIG Women’s Open. Should I transfer the additional tickets to my friends or should I keep them on my phone?
We strongly encourage all attendees to hold their own ticket on their own smartphone for security purposes and to speed up entry on arrival. This can be done using the in-app transfer functionality to send any additional tickets to the other members of your party. We recommend transferring any tickets in advance of your arrival to avoid delays.
What if my friend doesn’t have a smartphone?
If you are attending the AIG Women’s Open with a guest, friend or family member who does not have access to a smartphone, tickets can be retained on a single attendee’s app. If no one in your party has access to a smartphone, please come to the on-site ticket office with the lead purchaser and proof of purchase so that our team may assist you with entry.

You can transfer your tickets any time until you have entered the venue.
I did not receive the ‘Ticket sent’ email. What should I do?
If you are expecting to receive a transferred ticket but have not yet been notified by email, please check your email spam folder and contact the sender. If you are still experiencing any issues, the sender can cancel the current ticket transfer, and then transfer the ticket to you again, being careful to send to the correct email address.
Can I cancel the transfer of a ticket?
Yes, you can cancel the transfer of a ticket until it is successfully received by the recipient. The recipient will receive the ticket when they log in and open the AIGWO Tickets app. After the transfer is successful, it is not possible to cancel it.

If the ticket has not been successfully received by the recipient of the ticket transfer, the sender can cancel the transfer by going to the in-app menu and accessing the ‘Ticket Transfer’ section. The ticket transfer can be cancelled under ‘Pending Transfers’.

If you accidentally send the ticket to the wrong email address, after cancellation of the ticket transfer, you can resend the ticket to the correct email address.
What happens to my ticket after I transfer it?
After transferring a ticket, your ticket will remain in the ‘My Tickets’ tab under ‘Ticket Transfer’ and marked as ‘Pending Transfer’ until the ticket is received by the recipient. Once the ticket has been received by the recipient, the ticket will move from ‘Pending Transfer’ to the ‘Transfer History’ tab.
Can I transfer my 5-Day ticket to different people on different days?
