AEGEAN MESSINIA PRO-AM AT COSTA NAVARINO SET TO ATTRACT RECORD ENTRY
A record line-up of 75 teams is set to head to Costa Navarino this summer to participate in the landmark edition of the AEGEAN Messinia Pro-Am, one of the most important tournaments in the destination’s golfing calendar.
First established in 2006 as the AEGEAN Airlines Pro-Am, the tournament was inspired by Theodore Vassilakis, founder of AEGEAN, and Captain Vassilis Constantakopoulos, founder of Costa Navarino. The event has been hosted at Costa Navarino since 2010, where it has since evolved alongside the destination. In 2021, it joined forces with the Messinia Pro-Am shaping the tournament as it is known today, reaching its landmark 20th edition in 2026. Throughout the years, the event has been sanctioned by the Confederation of Professional Golf and supported by the Hellenic Golf Federation and the PGA of Greece.
Taking place from June 24-27 across three of Costa Navarino’s four 18-hole signature courses — The Dunes Course, The Hills Course and the International Olympic Academy Golf Course — the popular 54-hole tournament offers participants the opportunity to combine world-class golf with the renowned warmth and hospitality of Greece.
The AEGEAN Messinia Pro-Am annually attracts an international field of professionals and amateurs, with each team consisting of one professional and three amateurs competing for a range of individual and team prizes.
Set against cloudless blue skies and the idyllic backdrop of the lush seaside Messinian landscape, the four-day event promises a unique golfing challenge alongside a rich social programme. The tournament week will feature a variety of themed social events, culminating in a prize-giving ceremony.
This year’s anniversary event will carry special significance for Costa Navarino – named as the ‘World’s Best Golf Venue’ at the last two editions of the World Golf Awards – and further reinforces the destination’s reputation among the world’s premier golf venues.
Participants can choose from a range of four, five or seven-night tournament packages, which include accommodation at the five-star revamped The Westin Resort Costa Navarino and the opportunity for players and guests to enjoy the destination’s extensive gastronomy, leisure and cultural experiences.
AEGEAN, the title sponsor and the official air carrier of the tournament, is offering special ticket fares for participants and their companions, complimentary golf bag carriage for players, and free flight tickets for participating PGA professionals, officials, VIPs and other tournament sponsors.
Team registration for the AEGEAN Messinia Pro-Am 2026 is now open and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information on packages and bookings, please visit: www.aegeanmessiniaproam.com
