A Look Back at the 2026 Red Carpet Tour

Each year, the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce partners with the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, Georgia Allies, local development authorities, and private sector leaders to host the Red Carpet Tour during the first week of April. Timed alongside the Masters Tournament, this investment-focused initiative is designed to introduce top executives from across the country and around the world to the opportunities available in our region.

This year, we were honored to host the Governor, alongside economic development partners and business leaders, further reinforcing the strength of collaboration driving growth across Georgia.

From curated experiences to intentional networking opportunities, the tour is designed to create meaningful connections and open the door for future investment. Time at the Masters Tournament served as a key highlight, offering a powerful backdrop to showcase Augusta’s global visibility and the pride our community takes in hosting one of the world’s most recognized events.

At its core, the Red Carpet Tour is about building relationships that lead to long-term impact. The Red Carpet Showcase Committee plays a critical role in shaping and executing this experience each year, ensuring every detail reflects the very best of our region.

As we reflect on this year’s tour, we recognize the continued impact of this program on Georgia’s economy and the many people who make it possible.

Thank you to the Augusta National Golf Club, our regional partners, and supporting businesses. We are especially grateful to our Red Carpet Committee, volunteers, and Chamber team for their leadership and coordination, and to the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office for providing escorting and security to ensure a seamless experience.
