NextNW Open Golf Tournament
Now in its 6th year, the NextNW Open (formerly the ThinkNW Open) is the Pacific Northwest's largest golf tournament for the advertising, marketing, and media community. Whether you're a seasoned golfer or just here for the party, this scramble-format event welcomes all skill levels.
One format, zero pressure
A scramble means every golfer on your team hits from the best spot. No handicaps, no stress — just good shots and better company. It's the format that lets everyone contribute, whether you're a scratch golfer or picking up a club for the first time.
Built for the advertising world
This tournament draws the Pacific Northwest's best in advertising, marketing, and media — agency leaders, brand-side marketers, freelancers, and creative talent. If you're part of the community, you belong here.
Golf is just the beginning
The real magic happens after the final putt. Great food, cold drinks, and the kind of conversations that turn colleagues into collaborators. The after-party on the patio is worth the round alone.
