50th Anniversary of the Club Kitzbühel Regulars’ Club
We look back on the 50th anniversary of the Regular Guests Club Kitzbühel, which took place from 10 to 12 July 2026, when more than 150 Kitzbühel ambassadors from over ten countries came to Kitzbühel to celebrate their connection to the region.
In glorious summer weather, the anniversary weekend began on Friday with a guided walk through the town. This was followed by a special surprise in Legendenpark: the new Regular Guests Club badge of honour, created by Kitzbühel-based metal artist Heinz Sohler, was ceremonially unveiled and blessed by the parish priest, Mag. Michael Struzynski. Cool drinks from the well-known English pub, The Londoner, and musical accompaniment by Barbara O. created the perfect atmosphere. The traditional open-air concert by the Kitzbühel Town Band provided a lively finale.
Saturday was entirely devoted to the anniversary celebrations at the newly refurbished clubhouse at the Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith golf course. Following the election of the executive committee, guests enjoyed a barbecue buffet featuring international delicacies, accompanied by a varied programme of entertainment. A roulette table from Casino Kitzbühel, a photo booth and an airbrush tattoo station featuring motifs such as the famous Walde chamois and a specially designed anniversary logo for the Regular Guests Club Kitzbühel ensured a great atmosphere for young and old alike. Another highlight was the auction of a work of art by the artist Max Mavior, which found a new owner in Burgenland following the exciting raffle. DJane Isi Schaesberg provided the musical entertainment for the evening, creating a lively atmosphere on the dance floor with her music.
On Sunday, the anniversary weekend drew to a close at Schwarzsee. During an exclusive guided tour led by nature reserve warden Alexander Huber, participants gained fascinating insights into the unique flora of the moorland landscape. The sporting highlight was a 9-hole golf tournament at the Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith golf course, where golf-loving regular guests demonstrated their skills.
Kitzbühel Tourism would like to extend its warmest thanks to all the guests who celebrated this special anniversary together. For five decades, the Regular Guests Club Kitzbühel has thrived thanks to people bound together by their loyalty, enthusiasm and friendship. They are the heart of this unique club – and the best ambassadors for our destination.
Our members are united across national borders by their love for the beautiful mountains of Kitzbühel and the hospitality of its people. As an international tourism hotspot, Kitzbühel offers something for everyone, no matter the season.
Kitzbühel brings people together
We, the people of Kitzbühel, are proud that guests from all over the world spend their vacations in our region and enjoy this beautiful area for leisure and relaxation.
Many of them have formed a very special bond with the town and its residents. That is why Kitzbühel fans are drawn back to their favorite place every year. The tourism pioneers of Kitzbühel recognized this many decades ago and founded the 1st International Regular Guests Club.
Once a year, Kitzbühel Tourism invites the members—our valued Kitzbühel ambassadors—to the Regular Guests’ Gathering, an unforgettable event for like-minded people.
