Hosting The 151st Open at Hoylake has been a massive undertaking for Wirral. The event has welcomed around 250,000 people to the borough and planning for it has been underway for many months.
Many of the tickets to The Open available to Wirral Council have been shared with local charities and third sector organisations which the authority works with.
Wirral is gearing up for the eyes of the world to fall on the borough as preparations ramp up for the 151st Open in Hoylake this July and the return of one of the world’s biggest sporting events to the borough is being seized upon to promote Wirral visitor economy.
With tens of thousands of visitors coming to Wirral each day of The Open this summer temporary traffic measures will be put in place to improve safety, cut congestion and improve traffic flow.
