With Stuart Appleby’s historic 59, fantastic concerts and Jim Justice’s $1 million hole-in-one challenge, the inaugural Greenbrier Classic was a confirmed success. Due to the immediate demand for access to the 2011 Greenbrier Classic, Justice announced today that badges for next year’s PGA TOUR, FedExCup event will go on sale Friday, August 13, with an added bonus for early buyers. The first 5,000 Grounds badges sold will be automatically upgraded to Benefactor badges and the first 2,000 Benefactor badges purchased will be elevated to Alumni badge status. The Classic is expected to be held July 25-31, 2011, however, the exact dates will be released by the PGA TOUR later this year.

“We had such a tremendous response to this year’s event, it was just overwhelming. And before the competition started on Thursday, we had lots and lots of people asking if they could buy tickets for next year,” said Justice. “I could say thank you for days, and it would never be enough to really show how much I appreciate everyone’s support of our first year efforts. This special upgrade is just a small token of my appreciation to the tens of thousands of fans who were with us this year.”


The Grounds badges for the 2011 Greenbrier Classic, available for $159, will once again include all three practice rounds and four days of competition. The Greenbrier Classic Concert Series, which included Reba, Rascal Flatts, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley this year, will again be a part of The Greenbrier Classic. Complimentary access to the concerts will be included with all weekly badges, with the 2011 performers to be announced at a later date. New for 2011 is the inclusion of a weekly parking pass.


For $285, spectators may purchase a Benefactor badge which includes all of the benefits of a Grounds badge, plus access to special hospitality venues with air-conditioning, upgraded restroom facilities, and premium food and beverage items for purchase. Fans of West Virginia University, Marshall University, Virginia Tech and University of Virginia can enjoy a private Alumni Hospitality area with special appearances by coaches and alumni athletes with an Alumni badge. In addition, the Alumni badge, at $495, includes complimentary dry snacks and non-alcoholic beverages on Monday and Tuesday and unlimited tailgate-style food and non-alcoholic beverages Wednesday through Sunday.

For exclusive access, the $5,000 Clubhouse badge combines the benefits of the Grounds, Benefactor and Alumni badges with access to Sam Snead’s at the Golf Club and Slammin’ Sammy’s with unlimited food and beverage. Reserved seating for the 2011 concert series and $500 in special amenity vouchers are also included with the Clubhouse badge.


The Badges for Charity program, which raised almost $400,000 for charitable organizations in West Virginia and Virginia will be underway soon. Charities may register online at www.greenbrierclassic.com or by calling 304-536-5322.

Badges may be purchased at www.greenbrierclassic.com or by calling 304-536-5322 or 877-322-2870. Refunds and exchanges for badges of lesser value are not permitted.
