The best sports events to travel for in 2019/20

Nothing beats the exhilaration and theatre of a live sporting event. It’s the roar of the crowd, the passion of the people, the athleticism of the players, the half-time show and the full-time result. It’s all of these things and more.

We have curated our list of the best sporting events to watch live in 2019/20.

Australian Open – January 2019

It’s the perfect way to start off the Grand Slam season – sitting under the warm Australian summer sun and watching the world’s elite tennis players competing in the Australian Open. The host city is a highlight in itself too, Melbourne is rich in culture, unique architecture, and great restaurants, making it a popular destination for savvy travellers.

US Masters – April 2019

Famous for its history of testing even the greatest of golfers, getting your hands on tickets can be tough – the Augusta National Golf Course is one of the most celebrated golf courses in the world and the club is exclusive to members only.
