About GOLF FIRST
GOLF FIRST is a specialist event agency based in Lyon, France, that has focused exclusively on the golf sector since 1987. Founded by Christophe Cantegrel, the agency combines deep knowledge of the golfing world with event management expertise, organizing more than 50 events annually. Over more than three decades, GOLF FIRST has built a reputation for creating experiences that connect businesses with the golf community, a demographic known for its engagement and purchasing power.
Specialist Expertise in Golf Events
GOLF FIRST’s core strength lies in its ability to design and execute events specifically for the golf environment. The agency does not simply run generic corporate gatherings; it tailors every aspect—from course setup to participant management—to the rhythms and expectations of golf. This includes organizing corporate golf days, where companies can present their brands or services to a targeted audience of golfers, or creating exclusive events for internal VIPs and special customers. The agency also handles two major professional tournaments: the International Pro Am of the Côte d'Opale and the International Pro Am of Lyon, both of which attract professional golfers and high-level amateurs. These events demonstrate GOLF FIRST’s capacity to manage complex logistics, including participant registration, equipment rental, and on-course branding.
How GOLF FIRST Applies Its Expertise
The agency applies its specialist knowledge across a range of practical services. For companies looking to build relationships, GOLF FIRST organizes networking days and pro-am tournaments that facilitate business connections in a relaxed but structured setting. It also creates pop-up golf courses (known as “parcours de golf éphémère”) for events in non-traditional locations, such as urban spaces or company premises, expanding the reach of golf beyond the fairway. GOLF FIRST provides end-to-end support, including event marketing, video coverage, catering, safety protocols, and night course setup. The agency’s software and participant management tools streamline registration and scoring, making it easier for organizers to focus on guest experience. Consulting services are also available for companies new to golf events, helping them understand how to best engage this audience.
