How do I get to Wimbledon?

Airport: Two of the world’s largest airports are situated near London and both serve many international destinations.

Gatwick Airport is approximately 30 miles south of Wimbledon. From the airport, catch a train to Clapham Junction and then change to another service to Wimbledon station.

Trams: Trams run from East Croydon station to Wimbledon.


How do I get tickets to Wimbledon?

Public Ballot: The 2019 ballot for UK residents is open from 1st September – 31st December 2018. The process is a paper process and you must send a stamped self-addressed envelope to AELTC, PO Box 98, London, SW19 5AE.

The ballot for overseas residents is open from 1 – 15 December 2018 and is an online process.

The Queue: Ah ‘The Queue’, one of the institutions of Wimbledon and of British culture. If you’re willing to queue/camp overnight, a limited number of Centre Court, No.1 Court and No.2 Court tickets are available each day, except for the last four days where all Centre Court tickets are sold in advance.

If you’re happy with a Grounds Pass, it is advised to arrive a few hours before the Grounds open at 10:30am, where you will be given a Queue Card.
