The Irish Open returns to the K Club in 2026, the week of September 10-13. If you’re a golf fan in Ireland or further afield, here’s the honest answer on where to watch every round live, and what it costs.
Where the Irish Open airs in 2026
The European Tour (DP World Tour) holds the broadcast rights in 2026. The full TV coverage runs on:
- Sky Sports Golf for Irish and UK viewers
- Sky Sports Main Event for the Sunday final round
- DP World Tour streaming for international subscribers
What watching it through Sky costs you
To get Sky Sports Golf in Ireland in 2026 you need a Sky entertainment subscription (~€60/mo) plus Sky Sports (~€40/mo on top). The four days of Irish Open coverage will cost you, in effect, about €25 of that monthly bill.
What watching it through BingeBear costs you
BingeBear carries Sky Sports Golf. BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically. Free 24-hour trial first.
BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically. That’s the cheapest legal way to see every round live in 2026.
What about RTÉ?
RTÉ One typically shows highlights packages at the end of each day. No live coverage in 2026. The same has been true since 2019.
The full TV times
Times are subject to final confirmation by the DP World Tour. As a guide, expect:
- Thursday: 8am-7pm
- Friday: 8am-7pm
- Saturday: 9am-7pm (Sky Sports Golf)
- Sunday: 9am-7pm (Sky Sports Golf + Sky Sports Main Event for back nine)
The K Club, briefly
The K Club hosts the Irish Open for the first time since 2016, when Rory McIlroy won. It’s the Palmer South course. Famous from the 2006 Ryder Cup.
