Bangkok, Thailand: July 2024 – Marriott Bonvoy®, Marriott International’s award-winning travel program and marketplace, has reaffirmed its commitment to creating a brighter future for communities in Thailand with the announcement that the Marriott Bonvoy Charity Golf Day will return to Phuket this October, to raise vital funds for disadvantaged local children and their families.
On Friday, October 18, 2024, this important annual sporting event will welcome golfers to Phuket’s Blue Canyon Country Club (Lake Course) for its third annual edition. Attracting participants from all across the region, Thailand’s biggest charity golf event has so far generated over THB 5 million for its charitable partners.

This fun-filled day of sport will commence with welcome drinks and the chance to meet fellow golfers, followed by a group photo session. The Marriott Bonvoy Charity Golf Day competitions will then get underway with a shotgun start, as the players simultaneously tee off from different holes.
Throughout the day, all participants will enjoy fantastic food and cool drinks from Marriott Bonvoy on Wheels, the vibrant food trucks and carts from Marriott Bonvoy’s resorts in Phuket and Phang Nga, plus entertainment, competitions and special surprises across all 18 holes!
