US Open 2025 | Arthur Ashe Stadium Experience: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Champions in Training

Start your US Open journey with a day that offers a unique window into the world of professional tennis. The Arthur Ashe Stadium Experience gives fans an early look at top players as they practice on center court before the tournament begins. From your elevated perch in a mezzanine-level super suite, you’ll observe elite athletes in action in a calm and exclusive environment.

Running daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET, this experience allows guests to enjoy hours of live practice while benefiting from high-quality hospitality service. Inclusive dining is offered from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM ET, served within the comfort of your suite.

What You’ll Experience

Practice Sessions With Tennis’s Biggest Names

Watch Grand Slam champions and top-tier competitors go through their pre-match routines. These sessions, typically more relaxed than official matches, offer insight into players’ training methods, technical adjustments, and strategies. It’s a chance to see how professionals prepare for the spotlight — whether they’re perfecting their serves, rallying with their coaches, or working on footwork.

This is the only official practice-viewing event inside Arthur Ashe Stadium, offering direct access to elite-level tennis in a format you won’t find during the main draw.

Your Viewing Environment

Super Suite Comfort With Outdoor Seating Access

The experience takes place in a mezzanine-level super suite that features air conditioning, comfortable lounge seating, and large screens for enhanced viewing. Guests also have access to an outdoor balcony, where they can sit closer to the court in one of four designated seating sections (Sections 1–4). Balcony seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis, with a minimum purchase of two seats per booking.

This combination of interior lounge and outdoor seating allows you to customize your experience based on your comfort and preferred view of the court.

The suites are located just 3 minutes from all three Arthur Ashe Stadium entrances, offering convenient access and easy movement throughout the grounds.

Dining & Guest Services

Hospitality That Complements the Action

From noon to 2 PM ET, guests are treated to a catered food service that includes chef-selected dishes and premium non-alcoholic beverages. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet moment indoors or catching a break between sessions, the hospitality is designed to enhance your experience without distracting from the reason you came — the tennis.

The in-suite staff provides attentive service throughout the day, giving guests the flexibility to relax, eat, and return to the court-viewing area at their own pace.

Smooth Arrival and Entry

Ticket holders receive priority gate access, allowing for a stress-free arrival at the stadium. Whether you’re entering from the east, west, or south, the suites are a short walk away, helping you get to your seat quickly and without delay.

A Rare Opportunity to See the Game Up Close

For those who want a closer connection to the game — and to the athletes themselves — the Arthur Ashe Stadium Experience delivers a full day of practice viewing, quality dining, and a refined environment for tennis fans. It’s an ideal way to ease into the tournament atmosphere before the main matches begin, with great visibility, convenient access, and a high level of comfort.

Availability is limited, especially for balcony seats. Book early to reserve your spot for this unique tennis experience.
