Wimbledon 2024 is underway with the best and biggest tennis stars from around the world battling it out for glory over the next two weeks. The likes of reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz , the legendary Novak Djokovic and British heroes Andy Murray and Emma Raducanu will be in action on centre court. This year is the 137th edition of the competition with over a half-a-million fans set to converge on SW19 – and you could be one of them! While the public ballot for Wimbledon has long closed, there are still ways of getting last minute tickets for the event.
Here’s how: As mentioned, Wimbledon began on Monday, July 1 and will run until Sunday, July 14 when the Men’s Singles final takes place, with the Women’s Singles final the day before. The Grounds open daily at 10am. Play starts on outside courts at 11am and play starts on No.
1 Court at 1pm. On Centre Court, play starts at 1.30pm, apart from finals weekend when it begins at 2pm.
The public ballot closed way back in December but fear not there are still three ways to get tickets for Wimbledon: The Queue , the resale scheme , and through hospitality . The now famous Queue is a long-running Wimbledon tradition where fans line-up outside SW19 to get tickets on the day. Once at the box office, you can purchase either a Show Court ticket or a Grounds ticket.
They are sold on a first-come-first-served basis. Only 500 tickets for Centre Court (aside from the final four days), No.1 Court, and No.
2 Court will be sold for each day.
