The Bitcoin Open, a combined golf and poker tournament organized by Bitcoin Sports Network and Satstreet, is scheduled for June 8, 2026 at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ontario. The event takes place at the club during its 50th anniversary year.
Glen Abbey Golf Club, designed by Jack Nicklaus and opened in 1976, is one of Canada’s most recognized golf courses. It has hosted the Canadian Open several times and is known for its championship-level layout and history in professional golf. Located approximately 30 minutes west of Toronto, the course serves as a public golf facility with a significant heritage in Canadian sports.
The Bitcoin Open consists of a scramble format golf tournament on the main championship course during the day, followed by a Texas Hold’em poker tournament in the evening. The golf portion uses a team scramble format, typically with groups of four players. Field size is limited and the organizers note high demand and a reduced number of remaining team places from mid-May 2026.
Prizes for the event include two separate hole-in-one prizes, each consisting of one Bitcoin. Additional golf prizes cover longest drive and closest to the pin. Golf winners will also receive tickets to the 2027 Bitcoin Golf Championship, scheduled to take place in Nashville, Tennessee, prior to the 2027 Bitcoin Conference. The winner of the poker tournament will receive $5,000 CAD in stablecoins.
A list of hole sponsors for the event has been published. These include APX Lending, Tetra Digital Group, The Canadian Bitcoin Conference, Satstreet, True North Airways, Ledn, Gator Mining Inc., Wealthsimple, CAD DIGITAL, PRIVATEDEBT Partners, McCarthy Tetrault and Samara Asset Group.
The Bitcoin Sports Network serves as an organizer of Bitcoin-themed sports and lifestyle events, including golf tournaments held in conjunction with major Bitcoin conferences. Satstreet, a Canadian Bitcoin-focused company, is co-hosting the event and serving as one of the hole’s sponsors. The two organizations are collaborating on this Canadian edition of The Bitcoin Open.
The event is open to participants from the Bitcoin community, including developers, investors and others active in the industry. Registration is handled via the official event website, with tickets covering both the golf and poker components. The schedule includes activities on the course, meals and networking periods on site.
This is the first time The Bitcoin Open will be held at Glen Abbey. Previous Bitcoin Sports Network golf events have taken place in places like Las Vegas, often timed near major Bitcoin conferences. The Canadian event is located as an independent assembly in the Toronto area.
Glen Abbey’s 50th anniversary provides further context for the timing. Since its opening, the club has been a central part of Canadian golf, training professionals and hosting amateur and professional competitions.
