The “Womens Golf Day”, a worldwide event dedicated exclusively to women, is being organized as part of the 30th anniversary celebrations of Palheiro Golf. The event will take place on the afternoon of June 7, 2023, the eve of a public holiday, at Palheiro Golf, in Funchal, and will be open to women of all ages, golfers or not.
The purpose of the event is to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for women around the world, encouraging them to connect and have fun while golfing, socializing and participating in other exciting activities. This event is held simultaneously with 80 countries around the world, and Palheiro Golf is the only Portuguese club registered so far. There will be a range of fun and interactive activities for participants regardless of their golfing skill and lots of prizes.
The event will also feature inspiring talks by women leaders in their respective fields, such as sports, business and entrepreneurship. In addition, the event will have the special presence of the Portuguese actress Vanessa Martins, known for her performances in several television and cinematographic productions. Vanessa Martins is an enthusiastic advocate for gender equality and women's empowerment, and her presence at the event will provide an opportunity for attendees to be inspired and learn from her experience.
