The Valencian Province Masonic Charity Golf Tournament 2026 delivered a record-breaking day on 28th May at the stunning Bonalba Golf Resort in Mutxamel, Alicante, bringing together 84 players across 21 teams from Masonic Lodges, Valencian golf societies and Bonalba’s own membership.
Now in its fifth consecutive year at Bonalba, the Tournament once again exceeded expectations, marking its most successful edition to date.
A Day of Sunshine, Sport and Community Spirit
Players enjoyed perfect golfing conditions, with warm sunshine and a beautifully presented course. Bonalba continues to invest heavily in improvements, including upgrades to lakes, greens and its impressive new clubhouse and restaurant. Further enhancements to the final nine greens and the irrigation system are scheduled to begin in June, reinforcing Bonalba’s ambition to become the region’s premier golfing destination.
A picnic lunch was provided on the course, and the day concluded with a relaxed Prize Presentation and cocktails on the terrace overlooking the fairways.
Supporting Local Charities
Thanks to the generosity of players, sponsors and Bonalba Golf Resort, the Tournament expects to have raised over €6,000 for the Valencian Masonic Charity Fund. Charity is one of the foundations of Freemasonry and, over many years, Freemasons have contributed significant sums of money to local charities.
The organisers extend sincere thanks to the event’s sponsors, including Golden Leaves International, C & M Plumbing, Green Parrot Tourism, and the many Lodges of Freemasons in Valencia whose contributions made the day possible.
Special appreciation is also given to Bonalba Golf Resort for its exceptional hospitality, use of its facilities and the donation of several outstanding prizes.
