With everyone settling into 2026, it’s set to be another exciting year on the Ladies European Tour (LET) with an action-packed season ahead.
The Tour will be playing 30 events this year, visiting 21 countries across five continents while competing for a record total prize fund of more than €39 million.
There are new events, new venues and a prestigious 2026 Solheim Cup on the horizon. Here’s everything you need to know about the LET this year…
When is the first LET event of the season?
The LET 2026 season kicks off in Saudi Arabia with the stars of the LET heading to the PIF Saudi Ladies International.
Staged between 11-14 February, Riyadh Golf Club will be hosting for the third consecutive year with the tournament opening the LET season for the first time ever. The tournament boasts a prize fund of US $5 million.
A field of 120 players will be vying to capture the PIF Saudi Ladies International crown, which was won by world number one Jeeno Thitikul in 2025.
What’s new in 2026?
There’s a new event on the schedule in 2026 with the LET heading to Mauritius for the first time in its history for the MCB Ladies Classic – Mauritius. The event takes place between 1-3 May on the Legends Course at the Constance Belle Mare Plage.
A few tournaments will be returning to the LET schedule with the Women’s Australian Open, co-sanctioned with the WPGA Tour of Australasia, back on the schedule for the first time since 2016.
The Australian WPGA Championship will also take place for the first time in the four-event stretch Down Under after it was cancelled last year due to Cyclone Alfred. It will be played at Sanctuary Cove on the Gold Coast.
Similarly, the Ladies Italian Open also returns after a one-year hiatus. The tournament was last won by England’s Amy Taylor in 2024.
Meanwhile, the Aramco Championship will be co-sanctioned with the LPGA for the first time and played at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas.
When are the PIF Global Series events?

When are the Majors?
The European swing on the LET will include the highlights of the Amundi Evian Championship and the AIG Women’s Open.
