Sport news

Wimbledon returns for another year of exciting tennis action, featuring some of the most highly sought-after tickets in sports.

Securing a seat on Centre Court, especially for the final, is widely considered one of the most prestigious experiences in global sport.

Carlos Alcaraz, the two-time defending champion, is well-acquainted with the intense atmosphere of Centre Court and how to conquer it as he aims for a third consecutive title in 2025.

Watching the world`s top tennis stars is incredibly popular, and the tournament offers a public ballot as one method for fans to obtain tickets.

While Centre Court holds iconic status, it`s not everyone`s absolute favourite; Emma Raducanu, for example, has stated her preference for Court 1. Regardless of court, tickets are exceptionally difficult to acquire.

Here`s a look at how you might still be able to get tickets for Wimbledon this year:

Are Wimbledon 2025 Tickets Still Available?

In short, yes – tickets are still available for every day of Wimbledon.

However, guaranteeing which specific matches you will see on a given day is a much harder task.

While the public ballot for specific matches and tickets has now closed, Wimbledon is unique as one of the few major sporting events where the public can still purchase tickets on the day of play.

The famous Queue remains a very popular method to attend the event, though arriving very early (or even the night before) is strongly advised due to high demand.

Each day, a limited number of Show Court tickets and Grounds tickets are available for purchase via The Queue.

Different ticket types grant specific access to certain courts within the grounds.

Availability for both types of tickets is limited, but tickets do frequently become available later in the day should those already inside choose to leave and officially exit.

Wimbledon also offers various official hospitality packages. These typically include premium seating for major matches, fine-dining experiences, complimentary drinks, a concierge service, and buggy transport to the gate.

Alternatively, tickets for specific matches on Centre Court, Court 1, and other courts may also be available for purchase on secondary ticket marketplaces.

Official hospitality packages can also often be purchased via official partners of the event.

*Please note: Tickets purchased on secondary markets may be priced significantly above face value.*

Wimbledon Ticket Options Summary

Wimbledon, unlike many major sporting events, offers several avenues to obtain tickets, including on the day of the event. Here are the main options:

The Queue

As one of the very few major sporting events allowing on-the-day ticket purchases, demand is extremely high. Each day, a large queue forms for Grounds Passes or Show Court tickets. Many fans arrive the night before and camp to secure a good position.

Upon arrival, visitors receive a numbered and dated Queue Card, which must be kept until a ticket is successfully purchased.

Even if initial entries are sold out, it may be possible to remain in the queue and purchase tickets that become available later in the day from attendees leaving the grounds.

The status of The Queue is sometimes updated on the official Wimbledon website or app.

Organisers recommend that potential queuers download the official Wimbledon app and create a myWimbledon account for updates and potentially joining a virtual queue.

Show Court Tickets (via The Queue)

Those at the front of The Queue have the opportunity to purchase a limited number of tickets for Centre Court and Courts 1, 2, and 3.

Note that Centre Court tickets from The Queue are typically only available for the first 10 days of the tournament; tickets for the final four days are usually allocated through other means like the public ballot.

Prices vary significantly based on the specific court, seat location, and the day of the tournament, generally increasing as the event progresses. For example, Centre Court tickets purchased this way could range from approximately £105 on Day 1 to £315 for the Men`s Final on Day 14.

Grounds Pass (via The Queue)

A Grounds Pass, typically costing around £30, grants access to the Wimbledon grounds and allows visitors to watch matches on Courts 3-18 on unreserved seating. There may also be a separate queue specifically to enter Court 3.

Official Ticket Resale

From approximately 3 pm each day, tickets may become available through the official resale platform from attendees who have left the event and offered their seats for resale.

A Grounds Pass is usually required to access the virtual queue for the official resale tickets via the Wimbledon App.

Resale tickets are generally offered at a reduced price compared to face value, for example, around £15 for Centre Court or £10 for Courts 1 and 2.

Hospitality Packages

A range of official hospitality packages are available, often guaranteeing premium seating for major matches. These packages offer exclusive amenities like fine dining, complimentary drinks, shuttle services, and concierge assistance.

These packages are usually purchased in advance through official Wimbledon channels or their authorised partners.

Secondary Ticket Markets

Tickets for main courts on specific days and times may be found on various online secondary ticket marketplaces.

*Please note: Prices on secondary ticket markets are often considerably higher than the original face value.*
