Beach volleyball’s global homecoming arrives in Newport Beach from Oct. 7 to 12, featuring international and American superstars, Olympians, and legends competing for the world’s largest single-week prize purse of $550,000. VIP and “Sand Suite” tickets are available now at nbvolleyball.com. The program includes Sunday’s $250,000 Newport Beach Volleyball Invitational, where U.S. Olympians Phil Dalhausser, Taylor Crabb, Kelly Cheng, and Kristen Nuss will lead four-man teams in one of the sport’s most grueling single-day brackets. That event follows the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour Elite 16, a five-day competition taking place Oct. 7 to 11, with a $300,000 payout divided equally between men and women.
