The Open 2025 - Nothern Ireland

Hello
The Open is in Northern Ireland next year. Can anyone recommend a company to take me to and from the course.

I've used Acorn in the past and found them very good.

Thanks

From where? It looks like the course is right at the edge of town. I would imagine there will be loads of other folks traveling from the town center to the course on the days of the tournament. Surely, some provision must be made for that? You might get better information by checking with The Open itself or with Royal Portrush.

Thanks I didn’t think of that, I’ll try them.
I’m flying into Belfast and staying there.

It's an easy train ride from Belfast to Portrush changing at Coleraine.

This is 10 months away yet so way too early to have sorted out transport arrangements.

Translink may well run special through trains. Last year at Hoylake extra trains were run and there were special walking routes provided with large temporary camp sites.

Doubtless in due course shuttle buses will be run from the town centre to the course. This year at Troon there was a major shuttle bus system set up- normal bus services in the area were denuded and crews and vehicles brought in from way outside the area for the operation.
