Roland-Garros 2027 – Paris, France

What to expect in 2027

Roland-Garros 2027 will bring the world’s leading clay-court tennis players to Paris for one of the four Grand Slam tournaments. The competition is organised by the French Tennis Federation (FFT) at the Roland-Garros Stadium in Porte d’Auteuil, with the tournament combining elite singles and doubles tennis with junior, wheelchair and other competitions.

The tournament is played on clay, a surface that produces longer rallies, more tactical exchanges and distinctive sliding movement. The programme also includes qualifying competition, practice sessions, outside-court matches and activities for spectators, giving visitors opportunities to experience more than the headline matches on the main courts.

The official tournament website already identifies the 2027 edition and its official ticketing terms. Individual tickets are not yet on general sale, and the organisers have specifically warned spectators against unofficial ticket websites and resellers.

Roland-Garros also operates an official app providing tournament information and visitor features, while the stadium includes several major courts, restaurants, hospitality areas, shops and spectator facilities.

Event Dates

Roland-Garros 2027 is scheduled to take place from May 17, 2027 to June 6, 2027 in Paris, France. The tournament includes the qualifying and opening stages as well as the main competition and final phase. The official Roland-Garros terms identify the tournament as running from Monday, May 17 through Sunday, June 6, including Opening Week and the Final Phase.

The official venue is Roland-Garros Stadium in Paris’s 16th arrondissement. Visitors should check the official order of play shortly before attending because individual match schedules depend on results, court availability and weather conditions.

Stadium & Sports Venue

Roland-Garros Stadium is located in the Porte d’Auteuil area of western Paris. The official stadium address is 2 Gordon-Bennett Avenue, 75016 Paris, France.

The complex contains numerous clay courts, with the principal show courts providing the largest spectator experiences.

Court Philippe-Chatrier

Philippe-Chatrier is the centre court and the principal venue for the tournament’s most important matches. The modernised court has approximately 15,000 seats and a retractable roof, allowing play to continue during unsuitable weather conditions.

Court Suzanne-Lenglen

Suzanne-Lenglen is another major show court with capacity for more than 10,000 spectators. It is known for its atmosphere and has become an important venue for high-profile singles matches and other major competition.

Court Simonne-Mathieu

Simonne-Mathieu provides a more intimate setting and is located within the Jardin des Serres d’Auteuil environment. The court is particularly distinctive because of its greenhouse-style architectural surroundings. The official tournament describes it as one of the principal courts alongside Philippe-Chatrier and Suzanne-Lenglen.

Beyond these show courts, the stadium contains numerous outside courts where spectators can watch matches at much closer range.

Full Fixture or Event Schedule

The complete 2027 order of play will be published and updated by the tournament through its official platforms. Individual matches cannot be assigned permanently to particular courts far in advance because the draw, previous results, weather and tournament scheduling all affect the programme.

The overall competition structure traditionally moves through:

• Qualifying competition
• Men’s and women’s singles
• Men’s and women’s doubles
• Mixed doubles
• Junior boys’ and girls’ events
• Wheelchair tennis
• Quad wheelchair tennis
• Legends competition
• Practice sessions and spectator activities

The official Roland-Garros competition platform publishes draws, results and order-of-play information by court and competition.

The Opening Week is particularly useful for spectators interested in emerging players. The organiser’s recent programme has included qualifying matches, practice sessions involving leading players and activities throughout the grounds.

Teams, Athletes & Participants

Roland-Garros is an individual tennis tournament rather than a team competition. Players enter the singles and doubles draws representing themselves and, where applicable, their national tennis federations.

The field includes established Grand Slam champions, highly ranked ATP and WTA players, rising professionals, qualifiers, junior competitors and specialist wheelchair athletes.

The singles draws are especially international, attracting competitors from Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and Oceania. The doubles competitions add another layer of specialist tennis, while the junior events provide a platform for younger players progressing toward professional competition.

The final 2027 player field and seeded positions cannot be confirmed until the relevant draws and entry lists are released. Fans should therefore use the official Roland-Garros draw and player pages rather than relying on unofficial early lists.

Recent editions demonstrate the range of champions and finalists who can emerge in Paris. The official champions archive records Alexander Zverev as the men’s singles champion and Mirra Andreeva as the women’s singles champion for the most recent completed edition.

Tournament Format & Competition Structure

The principal singles competitions use elimination draws. Players must progress through successive rounds to reach the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final.

The tournament encompasses several separate competitions rather than one single championship:

Men’s singles: Individual players compete through the singles draw, with successful competitors advancing through successive rounds.

Women’s singles: The women’s draw follows the same broad elimination structure, culminating in the women’s singles final.

Men’s and women’s doubles: Teams of two compete against other pairs, requiring different tactical approaches from singles.

Mixed doubles: Pairs consisting of one male and one female player compete in a separate draw.

Junior competitions: Boys’ and girls’ events showcase developing players.

Wheelchair and quad tennis: These competitions form an important part of the wider Roland-Garros programme.

Qualifying: Players outside the direct main-draw field can compete for places in the main competition. This stage is an opportunity to see less-established players competing for entry into one of tennis’s biggest tournaments.

Match/Event Times

Exact 2027 match times will depend on the official order of play. Roland-Garros uses session-based scheduling, with matches allocated to specific courts and times.

Philippe-Chatrier also hosts night sessions, providing spectators with the opportunity to watch high-level tennis in an evening atmosphere. The official programme has previously included dedicated night-session ticketing alongside daytime sessions.

Spectators should check the official order of play before travelling to the stadium because the published time of a particular match can change. Tennis matches do not have fixed durations, so later matches may begin later than originally indicated.

The official Roland-Garros app is another useful way to follow tournament information while attending the event.

Ticket Types

Roland-Garros offers several forms of spectator access depending on the competition stage and court.

Show-court tickets provide reserved access to principal courts such as Philippe-Chatrier or Suzanne-Lenglen.

Outside-court access provides opportunities to watch matches on the numerous smaller courts around the stadium.

Opening Week tickets provide access to qualifying action and associated activities. Recent editions have also offered opportunities to see leading players practising on the main courts.

Day-session tickets are designed for daytime competition.

Night-session tickets provide access to designated evening tennis on Philippe-Chatrier.

Hospitality tickets combine tennis access with premium hospitality services.

Accessible seating is available for spectators with reduced mobility through a dedicated booking system.

For pricing, individual 2027 ticket prices have not yet been announced. As a previous official reference, the tournament advertised tickets starting at approximately $17 USD in an earlier edition, based on an official starting price of €15. This is a historical reference only and should not be treated as the confirmed 2027 price.

Ticket Release Phases

The organisers have confirmed that individual tickets for the 2027 tournament are not yet on sale. Official ticket sales information will be announced through the official ticketing channels.

Previous ticketing arrangements have used a registration or draw system for general-public access, followed by designated purchase windows. Another sales phase has been used for Opening Week and certain outside-court tickets.

The exact 2027 release timetable should therefore be checked directly through the official ticketing website rather than copied from a previous edition.

Spectators should also avoid websites advertising individual 2027 tickets before official sales open. Roland-Garros has specifically warned that such offers are not authorised.

VIP & Hospitality Options

Official hospitality is already available for the 2027 tournament through the dedicated Roland-Garros hospitality platform. Hospitality packages are separate from ordinary individual ticket sales and can provide a more premium way to experience the tournament.

Depending on the package selected, hospitality can include premium seating, reception areas, food and beverage services and other tournament-related benefits. The exact inclusions vary by package and session.

The official hospitality website is the appropriate source for current availability and package details. The FFT has also identified authorised hospitality agencies, including Sodexo Live, Factory SE and Quarterback, together with their approved international sub-agents.

Historical pricing should not be used as a confirmed 2027 hospitality rate because premium packages vary significantly by court, session and included services.

Stadium & Event Rules

Roland-Garros operates security procedures before spectators enter the stadium. Visitors must pass through designated Mandatory Checkpoints before reaching the stadium entrances.

The official visitor guidance advises spectators to avoid unnecessary bags. Bags with a capacity above 15 litres are not permitted inside, while prohibited or unsuitable items must be deposited at left luggage facilities before the controlled entry points.

Visitors should allow additional time for security screening and follow instructions from stadium personnel.

Other important rules include:

• Bring a valid ticket or digital ticket for entry.
• Follow security instructions at the Mandatory Checkpoints.
• Do not attempt unauthorised resale of tickets.
• Use official ticketing channels for purchases and transfers.
• Check the latest prohibited-items list before travelling.
• Follow court-specific instructions from ushers and security staff.

The precise regulations applicable to spectators should always be checked on the official Roland-Garros website before attending.

How to Get There

Roland-Garros is situated in western Paris and is well connected with the city’s public transport network.

The stadium address is 2 Gordon-Bennett Avenue, 75016 Paris.

The most practical option for many visitors is public transport, particularly because traffic controls and security arrangements around the stadium can make driving less convenient.

Metro Line 9 provides access via Michel-Ange Auteuil and Michel-Ange Molitor, while Line 10 serves Porte d’Auteuil, Michel-Ange Molitor, Boulogne Jean-Jaurès and Pont de Saint-Cloud.

Bus services also serve the surrounding area, including routes connecting with Porte d’Auteuil, Porte Molitor and Boulogne-Billancourt.

Public Transport & Parking

Public transport is strongly suited to a major event at Roland-Garros because the stadium is within the Paris public transport network.

Metro: Lines 9 and 10 provide the principal metro connections.

Bus: Several bus routes operate near the stadium, including routes serving Porte d’Auteuil and surrounding areas.

RER and tram: Pont du Garigliano is identified by the organiser as the nearest accessible station for people with reduced mobility, with connections to RER C and tram T3a.

Parking: Paid public car parks are available around the stadium. Official visitor information identifies facilities including Porte d’Auteuil, Point-du-Jour, Porte de Saint-Cloud and Parchamp.

Spectators should not park illegally around the stadium perimeter, and the organiser advises visitors not to use surrounding roads for unauthorised drop-offs.

Accommodation Areas

Paris offers accommodation across a wide range of neighbourhoods, making it possible to combine a Roland-Garros visit with a wider city break.

The 16th arrondissement is the most convenient area for staying close to the stadium. It provides relatively easy access to Porte d’Auteuil and the surrounding western Paris districts.

Boulogne-Billancourt is another practical option, particularly for visitors who prefer to stay southwest of the stadium.

Trocadéro and western central Paris can work well for visitors who want access to major Paris attractions while remaining reasonably connected to Roland-Garros.

Visitors staying farther into central Paris can generally use Metro Lines 9 or 10 to reach the stadium area. Booking accommodation early is advisable because major international sporting events can increase demand across western Paris.

Food & Drink at the Venue

Food and beverage facilities form part of the wider Roland-Garros spectator experience. Visitors can find places to eat and drink around the stadium grounds while moving between courts.

The grounds are designed as more than a collection of tennis courts, with public areas, hospitality spaces, shops and spectator facilities distributed throughout the complex.

Visitors attending for a full day should plan time between matches for refreshments, particularly when following matches across different courts. Water fountains are also available around the stadium, and the official visitor guidance recommends staying hydrated.

Hospitality areas provide a separate premium food-and-beverage experience for spectators whose packages include those services.

Accessibility

Roland-Garros has extensive accessibility arrangements. The official accessibility information states that all stadium facilities are accessible to people with reduced mobility.

Wheelchair users can reserve dedicated locations on the main courts, including Philippe-Chatrier and Suzanne-Lenglen. One attendant can accompany each wheelchair user where the relevant ticket conditions apply.

The stadium also provides wheelchair loan services at several locations and has dedicated assistance arrangements.

For visitors with visual impairments, the organiser has introduced audio and immersive accessibility services, including its Sound for All initiative. A quiet zone is also provided at Philippe-Chatrier.

Visitors requiring assistance should arrange services through the official accessibility system in advance whenever possible.

Best Matches/Events to Attend

For spectators seeking the biggest competitive moments, the later singles rounds are the natural focus. Quarter-finals and semi-finals bring together players who have successfully navigated the earlier stages, while the singles finals provide the tournament’s championship atmosphere.

Philippe-Chatrier is particularly important for spectators who want the main-court experience. Its 15,000-seat capacity, retractable roof and central position make it the stadium’s principal court.

Suzanne-Lenglen offers another major-court experience and is especially useful for spectators who want high-level tennis in a different stadium environment.

For a more intimate experience, Simonne-Mathieu and the outside courts can provide excellent opportunities to watch players from much closer to the court. Qualifying is also attractive for fans interested in emerging players and competitive matches before the main draw.

Doubles, wheelchair tennis, junior matches and Legends events provide additional options for visitors who want to experience the wider Roland-Garros programme rather than focusing exclusively on singles.

Previous Year’s Highlights

The most recent completed edition produced several notable results. Mirra Andreeva won the women’s singles title after defeating Maja Chwalinska in the final, becoming the youngest women’s singles champion in Paris since Monica Seles in 1992.

Alexander Zverev won the men’s singles title by defeating Flavio Cobolli in five sets. The victory gave Zverev his first Grand Slam singles championship and made him the first German man to win the Paris title in the Open Era.

The tournament also recorded a new attendance milestone, with more than 727,000 people passing through the stadium during the completed edition, according to tournament director Amélie Mauresmo.

The preceding edition also produced one of the most memorable recent men’s finals when Carlos Alcaraz defeated Jannik Sinner in a five-set contest lasting five hours and 29 minutes. The official tournament described it as the longest men’s singles final in Roland-Garros Open Era history.

Official Tickets

Individual tickets for Roland-Garros 2027 are currently not yet on sale. The tournament has explicitly warned spectators not to purchase supposed individual tickets from unofficial websites before the official sales process begins.

The official ticketing channel is:

Official Roland-Garros Ticketing (https://tickets.rolandgarros.com/)

Official hospitality is available separately through:

Official Roland-Garros Hospitality (http://hospitality.rolandgarros.com/s/)

Official travel packages are available through:
