From intimate corporate golf days to continent-defining tournaments — Arikai Africa is the trusted partner for golf events that deliver at every level.
Golf in Africa is no longer just a travel experience — it is a destination for the world's most prestigious tournaments and events. From LIV Golf's arrival on African soil to the inaugural Africa Golf Tourism Convention, the continent's golf narrative has shifted dramatically.
Arikai Africa sits at the centre of this movement — as event planners, as hosts, as advocates, and as the ground partner that makes it all work seamlessly.
The inaugural Africa Golf Tourism Convention (AGTC) is taking place this week — 18 to 22 August 2026 in Johannesburg. This landmark gathering brings together golf course operators, destination management companies, tourism boards, travel trade buyers, media, and golf tourism thought leaders from across the continent and the world.
The AGTC is designed to do what no other event has done before: convene the African golf tourism ecosystem under one roof, drive inbound golf travel to the continent, and establish Africa as a serious voice in global golf tourism conversation.
Key themes: Inbound golf tourism growth strategies, course standards and certification, digital marketing for African golf, LIV Golf's impact on the continent, B2B networking and trade deal facilitation, and the future of golf and safari as a packaged product.
LIV Golf's inaugural African event marked a watershed moment for the continent's golf scene. The series — which has redefined professional golf globally — brought its electric format, world-class field, and billion-dollar production to South African soil, and the reverberations are still being felt.
For Arikai Africa, LIV's arrival validates everything we have been saying about Africa's world-class golf product. South Africa's courses have hosted countless major professional events, but LIV's global reach and demographic profile opens African golf tourism to an entirely new audience of aspirational golf travellers.
We offer travel packages designed around LIV Golf South Africa — hospitality access, tournament tickets, post-event golf experiences at the host course, and multi-day South African golf journeys to extend your stay.
