U.S. Tennis Open Schedule 2023

August 28-Sept 10, 2023

You can safely buy tickets and not worry about games being canceled. NO MORE RAINOUTS on Show Courts! Both Ashe and Armstrong have retractable roofs.

Around 85 percent of the entire USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center grounds have been upgraded as part of the strategic transformation, all aimed at improving the fan experience and getting people closer to the action than ever before. Bring it on, US Open, we love you!!!!!

There are 4 types of tickets to the US Open: Arthur Ashe (Day and Night), Louis Armstrong (Day and Night), the Grandstand (day only), Grounds Pass (day only).

The following schedule and tickets available by our recommended ticket sellers is best viewed on a large screen. Red filler means no tickets are sold for those matches. The ticket options above the chart will take you directly to our recommended ticket sellers for each stadium and ticket type. It is always best to compare prices.

A quick analysis during Summer 2022 compared pricing for Ashe, Session 9 on Friday, 8/30 @ 11 and here are the prices I saw for Section 127. They were not the exact same seats, but close. The first amount is per ticket and the second is for 2 tickets with all taxes and fees. It pays to shop around!

  • Ticketmaster – $396 (only sold in pairs), $923
  • Ticketmaster Resale – $352 (only sold in pairs), $820

U.S. Tennis Open Free Qualifying Rounds and Fan Week

Want to see some really cool tennis at almost no cost? Check out the US Open Qualifying Rounds, the week before the US Open (Aug 22-25, 2023) featuring 128 men and 128 women competing for a spot in the Open’s main draws. Each of the men’s and women’s draws annually includes 16 qualifiers, who must win three matches in Qualifying to advance. The free Legends Match returns on Tues 8/22 this year.

Gates open at 10 a.m. and are free and open to the public. No ticket is required. Watch a level 7 player in front row seats, when hardly anyone is there and watch all the greats on the practice courts with their hitting partners (I’ve seen Fed, Nadal, Serena, Venus, Kerber, Shapovalov, Djoker, FAA and more). Tuesday, 11:00 through Friday 11:00am.

See the full US Open Fan Week Schedule and make sure to register for a US Open Fan Access Pass, so you can reserve a spot in the Grandstand, where they will showcase premier practices, accompanied by a host and DJ for the day.

Arthur Ashe Kids Day is Saturday before the start of the Open. It’s free to enter the grounds and grand stadium tickets start at $13. There will be a lot of activities and give aways, like caps, wrist bands, tennis racquets, face painting for kids 14 and under.

US Open Tickets FAQs

1. When Do US Open Tickets Go On Sale?

On Sale Dates: Resale Marketplace opens in April, American Express pre-sale, May 30, 2023. US Open tickets for individual sessions go on sale to the public the first week in June, usually the day after Roland Garros finals, June 5, 2023.

2. When is the BEST Time to Buy US Open Tickets?

That is a tough question to answer, as prices vary based on demand all the way up to each match. It is not necessarily the day tickets go on sale. One year, my friend and I got great seats (in Ashe in the 100s) for the Quarter Finals, which we purchased in July. It turned out to be a Serena/Venus match and prices skyrocketed. We could have sold our tickets for 5x what we paid, which of course, we did not. As long as the top seeds keep playing, prices will continually go up. On years where top seeds don’t play or are out, prices have dropped.

3. How do I Attend the US Open for FREE?

There are four opportunities where you can see the best of tennis at no cost. See the US Open Schedule for the Qualifiers (4 days), Arthur Ashe Kids Day (1 Day), Practice Day (1 Day) and Community Day (1 Day).

4. Where should I stay for the US Open tennis?

We have hand picked all the closest US Open Hotels, the best ones in Manhattan, the best budget hotels and all the hotels where the players stay. Check out our guide to Best US Tennis Open hotels.

5. What Are the Best Value Seats in Arthur Ashe Stadium?

Ashe offers Upper Promenade, Lower Promenade (both in blue on the seating chart and in the 300s), Loge (Red, 100s), Luxury Suites and Courtside. Ashe is the largest tennis stadium in the world, by at least 6,000 seats. For some perspective, here are some key stadiums by capacity, according to Wikipedia: Ashe (23,771), Indian Wells (16,102), Philippe Chatrier (15,225), Wimbledon Centre Court (15,225), Rod Laver Arena (14,820).

What this means in terms of tickets is that Promenade Seats are very high up and you will be watching the tennis on the large screens. The atmosphere in Ashe is electrifying and there really is nothing like seeing a match in Ashe. Even Courtside seats, while as close as you can get, are further away from the action than at other arenas because Ashe is just that big.

I recently sat second row at Wimbledon (for Federer/Nadal 2019!) and I can’t tell you how intimate that experience felt relative to sitting courtside at Ashe. Like a million times closer. I also sat fairly high up in Phillipe Chatrier and that was like sitting Loge at Ashe.

For a true tennis experience, where you will watch the court and not the screen, you’ll want to splurge on seats in Loge or lower. Consider earlier rounds, if budget is a concern, as you’ll be able to get better seats for much less. Or consider Armstrong and the Grandstand as they are much smaller arenas and closer to the action.

6. Can You Buy Grounds Passes for the US Open Finals?

Some years, the US Open makes Grounds Admission tickets available for around $25. This is not for seats inside Ashe, but you can walk the grounds and watch outside on the large screen TVs with tons of other fans. I’ve been a few times and it’s always super fun. If this option is available, it is usually announced late in the tournament and posted on the US Open website. In 2019, grounds passes were sold at the box office.

U.S. Tennis Open Arthur Ashe Stadium Seating

During a day session, I highly recommend you consider a shaded section. It can be brutally hot and blinding during some sessions.

The shady sections at Ashe tend to be on the West and South sides since the sun starts on the South side (shining on the North side) and moves towards the West (shining on the East Side) of the stadium. Sections 116-107 (same for 216-207) are directly in the Sun, but 316-307 are shaded because of the retractable roof. For the shade, look at sections 301-328 (Upper Promenade) below and then move down for those looking for Lower Promenade, Loge or better seats.

NYC Insider Tip – Avoid lines after the Game

If you are still using Metrocard, and not OMNY, fill up your pay per ride card before you head to Arthur Ashe Stadium, or you’ll be waiting for hours trying to fill it at the subway after the matches.
