Roland-Garros will introduce paid tickets for the lower stands of Court 14 for the 2027 tournament, shifting the popular annex court away from free general admission. The French Tennis Federation announced the change alongside public ticket lottery dates running from December 3 to December 17, 2026.
When do ticket lottery registrations open?
General public ticket applications for the 2027 tournament will open on December 3 and close on December 17, 2026, according to the Fédération Française de Tennis. The tournament is scheduled to run from May 17 to June 6, 2027, with the main competition taking place from May 23 to June 6. Applicants can register on the official Roland-Garros ticketing website.
The draw will take place under the supervision of a court bailiff. On the day of the sale, which begins at 10 a.m., a buyer’s position in the queue is also randomly assigned.
“Ce tirage au sort attribuera aux fans des créneaux d’achat leur permettant d’accéder à la billetterie de l’édition 2027 de Roland-Garros, au plein tarif ou aux tarifs Last Minute”, the Fédération Française de Tennis stated in a press release reported by Actu.fr.
How much will Court 14 tickets cost?
Court 14 will expand its capacity to 4,000 seats for the 2027 tournament, transforming the venue into the tournament’s fourth major stadium, Media365 reported. Tickets for the lower stands during the first week will cost between 75 and 120 euros.
During the second week, the court will revert to a standard annex court accessible via a 45-euro grounds pass.
Fans have expressed frustration over the pricing changes, worrying the new ticketing structure will diminish the arena’s atmosphere and leave lower stands empty during parts of the day, Sports – Orange reported. Last year, German Alexander Zverev and Russian Mirra Andreeva won the Parisian tournament.
What are the purchase limits and rules?
Main court tickets and first-week annex court passes are capped at four per person. Opening week passes and second-week annex passes carry a limit of 15 tickets per buyer, Tennis Temple reported.
Registration for the public lottery requires a temporary bank authorization. The procedure involves no actual payment, though banks may temporarily display a minus-one-euro transaction that disappears within days, according to the Fédération Française de Tennis. The federation also warns spectators to remain vigilant against potential scams, noting that no single tickets are currently available for purchase.
When does the general resale phase begin?
A secondary sale without a lottery will open to the general public on March 30, 2027, covering the opening week and second-week annex courts on a first-come, first-served basis, Tennis Temple reported.
Registered club members of the federation have a dedicated sales window from February 23 to March 1, 2027, requiring a valid license obtained before January 15, 2027. Separate procedures also apply for individuals with disabilities, wheelchair users, and those purchasing via Premium Experiences or Roland-Garros Travel packages.
