“Shoreditch Golf Club have created an unparalleled way to experience the game of golf and now exquisitely executed by Gekko.”
– Jeremy Feakes of SGC

On Sunday 24th of September 2006, the colourful and trendy streets of Shoreditch will host an event that is truly unique and creative. Gekko will produce this year’s Shoreditch Urban Open, which promises to be bigger and better than ever before.

Coinciding with the Ryder Cup, golfers will be able to experience the spirit of the game first hand. Every pub around the course will show the Ryder Cup and each player will have their scores projected on wide screens as well, to create a simultaneous experience between the tournament and the Ryder Cup.

This event is bound to bring great exposure to one of London’s most distinctive areas and make a game that is usually exclusive, accessible and entertaining.

Londoners will be able to experience the game of golf like they have never been able before, as they will be able to play on the actual streets! Gekko Events and Shoreditch Golf Club will create an unparallel way to experience the game of golf turning everything you know about golf, however limited, completely on its head. We provide the greens, and you play in the streets.

Gekko Events is always looking to create exciting and unique events that bring people from all over the UK together.
