The Open Championship is one of the world’s most celebrated sporting events, welcoming thousands of fans each day across an eight day tournament. With long days on course from early morning through to evening, spectators rely on their phones for tickets, live scoring, navigation, photography, and staying connected throughout the day. Lifesaver supports the fan experience with a free to use phone charging service funded by the event.

Fans depend heavily on their phones throughout the day, yet access to traditional charging points is limited. Any solution needed to operate reliably from gates opening to close, scale with high footfall, and remain simple and accessible for all spectators, without queues, cost, or disruption to the event experience.
