Roland-Garros 2027 – French Open Tennis Tournament France

What to expect in 2027

Roland-Garros 2027 will bring the world’s leading tennis players to Paris for the second Grand Slam tournament of the season. The tournament is scheduled to take place from 17 May to 6 June 2027 at Stade Roland-Garros in the Porte d’Auteuil area of Paris. The 2027 tournament conditions already confirm that the event includes Opening Week and the Final Phase.

The French Open is played on outdoor red clay, a surface that places particular importance on movement, endurance, patience and constructing points. The tournament features men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles, mixed doubles, junior competitions, wheelchair tennis, quad wheelchair tennis and the Trophée des Légendes.

The main venue is centred around Court Philippe-Chatrier, the tournament’s largest and most famous court. Court Suzanne-Lenglen and Court Simonne-Mathieu provide additional major-court action, while numerous outside courts host matches throughout the competition.

Opening Week gives spectators an opportunity to see qualifying matches and watch established players practise before the main draw begins. In the most recent edition, Opening Week included men’s and women’s qualifying, main-draw practice sessions, the singles draw ceremony, Yannick Noah Day and other entertainment.

The 2027 tournament will also continue Roland-Garros’s broader programme of tennis and cultural activities around the grounds. Visitors can expect restaurants, cafés, gardens, merchandise stores, fan activities and opportunities to watch several competitions during a single visit.

The final player entries and complete 2027 order of play will be published closer to the tournament. As a result, specific matchups and daily court assignments should not be treated as confirmed until the official draw and schedule are released.

Match/event dates

Roland-Garros 2027 is scheduled to take place from 17 May to 6 June 2027 in Paris.

The tournament covers approximately three weeks when Opening Week and the main competition are considered. The official 2027 terms and conditions define the tournament as including both Opening Week and the Final Phase.

The overall programme is expected to include:

• Junior events: Boys’ and girls’ singles and doubles.
• Wheelchair tennis: Men’s, women’s and quad competitions.

Stadium & sports venue

Stade Roland-Garros is located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris near Porte d’Auteuil. The complex contains multiple clay courts and is transformed into a large tennis village during the tournament.

Court Philippe-Chatrier is the centre court and the main venue for the most prominent singles matches. It has a capacity of approximately 15,000 spectators and features a retractable roof, allowing play and scheduled events to continue in changing weather conditions.

Court Suzanne-Lenglen is another major competition court and has a retractable roof. During Opening Week, it can host important qualifying matches, while during the main tournament it stages high-level singles and doubles matches.

Court Simonne-Mathieu is located within the Jardin des Serres d’Auteuil and provides one of the most distinctive settings at Roland-Garros. Its location among the gardens gives spectators a different atmosphere from the larger show courts.

The remaining courts provide access to a wide range of matches. Smaller courts can offer particularly close views because spectators are positioned much nearer to the players than in the largest stadium.

The tournament grounds are not simply a collection of tennis courts. Visitors can also find gardens, food outlets, shops, entertainment areas and spaces dedicated to the Roland-Garros experience.

Full fixture or event schedule

The complete 2027 day-by-day schedule has not yet been released. The structure can, however, be understood from the official tournament programme used in the latest edition.

Opening Week traditionally begins with qualifying matches for the men’s and women’s singles competitions. The qualifying tournament gives players outside the direct main-draw entry positions the opportunity to earn a place in the Grand Slam.

The main tournament then progresses through several rounds:

• First round: Men’s and women’s singles begin, alongside the opening stages of doubles.
• Second round: Singles players continue their campaigns while doubles competition progresses.
• Third round: The singles fields are reduced further and more seeded players face increasingly difficult opponents.
• Round of 16: The remaining singles competitors compete for quarter-final positions.
• Quarter-finals: Eight players remain in each singles draw.
• Semi-finals: Four players remain in each singles competition.
• Finals: The men’s and women’s singles champions are decided.

Alongside singles, the grounds host doubles, mixed doubles, junior tennis, wheelchair tennis, quad tennis and the Trophée des Légendes. The 2026 official programme demonstrates how these competitions overlap during the final week.

Opening Week also provides practice sessions featuring main-draw players. In the latest edition, spectators could watch major players preparing on Philippe-Chatrier while qualifying matches were taking place on other courts.

Teams, athletes & participants

Roland-Garros is an individual tennis tournament, although doubles and team-based support structures play an important role. The world’s leading ATP and WTA players compete alongside qualifiers, wildcards and emerging athletes.

The 2027 player field has not yet been finalised. Entry lists, qualifying players and wildcards will be confirmed closer to the tournament.

The competition normally features several groups of participants:

• Top seeds: Highly ranked players entering directly into the main draw.
• Direct entrants: Players qualifying through their ranking position.
• Qualifiers: Players who progress through the qualifying competition.
• Wildcards: Players receiving direct tournament entry through official wildcard allocations.
• Doubles specialists: Players competing primarily or additionally in doubles.
• Junior players: Young athletes competing in the junior championships.
• Wheelchair players: Elite athletes competing in the wheelchair events.
• Legends: Former professional players participating in the Trophée des Légendes.

The latest completed edition produced major champions across the singles competitions. Alexander Zverev won the men’s singles title, while Mirra Andreeva captured the women’s singles championship.

The 2026 women’s field also included players such as Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, Iga Swiatek and other leading WTA competitors, while the men’s competition featured established Grand Slam contenders and rising players.

The 2027 entry list will determine which of these players return and which new contenders emerge.

Tournament format & competition structure

The men’s and women’s singles competitions use a knockout format. Players advance from one round to the next by winning their matches, while defeated players are eliminated from the singles draw.

A standard singles match is played as best of five sets in the men’s competition and best of three sets in the women’s competition. The winner must therefore win the required number of sets to progress.

Doubles competitions use their own Grand Slam regulations, while wheelchair, junior and legends competitions follow their respective competition formats.

The qualifying tournament provides another route into the main draw. In the latest edition, 128 men and 128 women competed in qualifying, with 16 players in each singles draw earning places in the main tournament.

The clay surface adds another tactical dimension. Longer rallies, sliding movement and changes in court position are central features of the competition. Players frequently construct points patiently rather than relying exclusively on short explosive exchanges.

The tournament’s multiple competitions mean visitors can see very different styles of tennis on the same day. A singles match on Philippe-Chatrier may be followed by a doubles match on Lenglen, a junior contest on an outside court and wheelchair tennis elsewhere in the grounds.

Match/event times

Exact 2027 match times and daily order of play have not yet been announced.

Based on the most recent official programme, Opening Week qualifying and practice sessions generally begin during the morning and continue through the afternoon. Main-draw sessions also begin during the day, with selected evening sessions on Philippe-Chatrier.

The official 2026 schedule had main-draw action beginning from late morning on most days. Philippe-Chatrier also hosted night sessions, with selected matches scheduled for the evening.

The 2027 order of play will determine which players appear on each court and at what time.

Visitors should check the official schedule shortly before their session because tennis timetables can change due to weather, match duration, withdrawals and other tournament circumstances.

Ticket types

Individual ticket prices for Roland-Garros 2027 have not yet been released. The tournament has specifically warned that individual 2027 tickets are not yet on sale and should only be purchased through official channels once sales open.

For planning purposes, recent Roland-Garros pricing provides a useful reference.

During 2026 Opening Week, a grounds ticket was advertised at approximately $33.00 after converting the published €29 price using an exchange rate of approximately $1.14 per euro. The ticket provided access to the Roland-Garros grounds, qualifying matches, practice sessions and open seating on Suzanne-Lenglen.

The 2026 inclusion programme also stated that 160,000 tickets were priced below $34.20 after conversion from €30, while tickets for spectators under 25 were offered at approximately $17.10 after conversion from €15.

Potential 2027 ticket categories include:

• Opening Week tickets: Access to qualifying and practice sessions.
• Main-court tickets: Tickets allocated to Philippe-Chatrier or Suzanne-Lenglen sessions.
• Outside-court access: Access to selected courts and competitions.
• Final-week grounds tickets: Access to junior, wheelchair, doubles and legends events where offered.
• Hospitality tickets: Premium packages with additional services.

The actual 2027 prices will be confirmed by Roland-Garros.

Ticket release phases

The 2027 individual ticket sale has not yet opened. The official tournament website has warned customers against purchasing from unauthorised websites and confirmed that official individual tickets will be sold through the tournament’s official ticketing channel.

Recent editions have used multiple sales periods rather than releasing every ticket at the same time.

The likely structure includes:

• Initial sales: Main tournament ticket sales through the official Roland-Garros ticketing system.
• Additional releases: Later ticket windows for Opening Week, outside courts or remaining sessions.
• Hospitality sales: Separate premium packages available through the official hospitality platform.
• Travel packages: Official travel products offered through Roland-Garros Travel.

The official 2027 terms also describe a draw mechanism through which registered participants can receive a purchasing slot for tickets.

Visitors should use only official Roland-Garros ticketing channels because the tournament has already issued a specific warning about fraudulent ticket and hospitality websites.

VIP & hospitality options

Roland-Garros offers official hospitality packages for spectators who want a more premium tournament experience.

Hospitality can include premium seating, catering, dedicated reception areas and additional services depending on the selected package. The official hospitality platform is separate from standard individual ticket sales.

Travel packages are also available through the official Roland-Garros Travel service, allowing visitors to combine accommodation and tournament access.

The official 2027 terms specify that only the FFT and approved agencies are authorised to market hospitality services connected with tournament tickets.

Visitors interested in premium experiences should therefore distinguish between:

• Official hospitality: Premium tournament packages sold through authorised channels.
• Travel packages: Official accommodation and ticket combinations.
• Standard tickets: Regular tournament admission without hospitality services.
• Opening Week access: More affordable grounds-based tennis experience.

Hospitality availability and pricing for 2027 should be checked through the official hospitality platform once packages are published.

Stadium & event rules

Roland-Garros operates as a secure sporting venue with controlled entry points and mandatory security procedures.

Visitors do not enter directly through the court gates from surrounding streets. The official transport information states that all visitors must pass through one of three Mandatory Checkpoints before entering the secure perimeter and reaching the stadium entrances.

Important visitor considerations include:

• Security screening: All spectators should allow time for mandatory security checks.
• Ticket control: Carry the valid ticket or authorised digital access document.
• Restricted objects: Follow the tournament’s current prohibited-items policy.
• Court rules: Follow instructions from stewards and stadium personnel.
• Photography: Personal photography may be subject to tournament rules.
• Professional recording: Commercial or professional recording can require accreditation.
• Bag requirements: Visitors should check the current bag policy before travelling.

The exact 2027 regulations may be updated before the tournament, so visitors should check the official terms and conditions before attending.

How to get there

Stade Roland-Garros is located in western Paris near Porte d’Auteuil and the Bois de Boulogne.

The easiest way to reach the tournament is generally public transport. Metro Line 9 provides access to the Porte d’Auteuil area, while other metro and bus connections can be used depending on the visitor’s starting point.

The official transport guidance specifically recommends public transport and warns visitors that there is no direct access from the surrounding streets to the stadium entrances. Spectators must first reach a Mandatory Checkpoint.

Visitors arriving from Charles de Gaulle Airport can travel into central Paris before continuing toward the tournament. Those arriving at Orly Airport can similarly use Paris public transport or a taxi/VTC service.

Taxis and private vehicles cannot simply drop passengers beside the stadium. Official guidance provides designated drop-off areas around the Mandatory Checkpoints.

Public transport & parking

Public transport is strongly recommended for Roland-Garros.

Metro Line 9 is one of the principal routes toward the tournament, with Porte d’Auteuil providing access to the Auteuil checkpoint. Bus services also serve the surrounding area.

The official access information lists several paid public car parks near the Mandatory Checkpoints, including:

• Porte d’Auteuil car park: Near avenue du Général Sarrail.
• Point-du-Jour car park: Near Place Abel-Gance in Boulogne-Billancourt.
• Porte de Saint-Cloud car park: Near avenue de la Porte de Saint-Cloud.
• Parchamp car park: Near rue du Parchamp.

Parking directly around the stadium is restricted. The official guidance states that certain spaces are reserved for local residents and warns that improperly parked vehicles can be ticketed or towed.

Visitors using taxis or ride-hailing services should arrange collection or drop-off at an approved checkpoint rather than attempting to reach the stadium entrance directly.

Accommodation areas

Visitors have a wide range of accommodation options across Paris.

The 16th arrondissement is particularly convenient because it places visitors close to Roland-Garros. Areas around Porte d’Auteuil, Auteuil and Passy provide relatively direct access to the tournament.

Boulogne-Billancourt is another practical option. It is located immediately west of the stadium and offers hotels, restaurants and good connections to the tournament area.

Central Paris is suitable for visitors who want to combine Roland-Garros with sightseeing. Areas around the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Élysées, Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the Latin Quarter provide access to restaurants, attractions and wider public transport connections.

Staying near a Metro Line 9 station can also make tournament travel easier.

Because Roland-Garros attracts international visitors throughout the tournament, accommodation should be arranged well in advance, particularly for the later rounds.

Food & drink at the venue

Roland-Garros offers a broad food and drink experience across the tournament grounds.

Visitors can find cafés, restaurants, snack stands and hospitality dining areas throughout the complex. The tournament also regularly features French culinary experiences and guest chefs as part of its wider entertainment programme.

During the latest Opening Week, the grounds included food and pastry experiences, terraces and areas where spectators could relax between matches.

The Roland-Garros experience therefore extends beyond watching tennis. Visitors can spend an entire day moving between courts, restaurants, gardens, shops and fan activities.

Food choices can vary from quick snacks and sandwiches to more substantial meals. Visitors should also allow time for queues during the busiest sessions.

Accessibility

Roland-Garros provides accessibility facilities for spectators with reduced mobility and disabilities.

The official accessibility information states that all Roland-Garros stadium facilities are accessible. Dedicated procedures are available for spectators with disabilities, including arrangements for the main courts.

Accessible seating is available across the tournament’s courts, with specific arrangements for wheelchair users and accompanying people. Dedicated staff are also available at stadium entrances to assist visitors during their journey through the grounds.

Public transport access should nevertheless be planned carefully. The official information identifies accessible routes and specific bus connections around the Porte d’Auteuil and Molitor checkpoints.

Visitors requiring accessible seating or other assistance should arrange the necessary ticketing support in advance because dedicated spaces and services can have specific booking procedures.

Best matches/events to attend

Roland-Garros offers several different experiences depending on what type of tennis a visitor wants to see.

• Opening Week: Qualifying matches and player practice offer close access to emerging players and established stars preparing for the tournament.
• Early main-draw rounds: These sessions provide opportunities to watch multiple matches across different courts.
• Round of 16: The singles fields become significantly smaller and matches become increasingly important.
• Quarter-finals: The remaining elite players compete for semi-final places.
• Semi-finals: These sessions determine the finalists in the men’s and women’s singles competitions.
• Women’s singles final: The Coupe Suzanne-Lenglen is awarded to the women’s singles champion.
• Men’s singles final: The final match determines the men’s Roland-Garros champion.
• Doubles finals: The tournament concludes with high-level doubles competition.
• Wheelchair tennis: The final week includes wheelchair and quad tennis competitions.
• Trophée des Légendes: Former professional players return for exhibition-style competition.

For spectators who want to see the widest variety of tennis, an Opening Week or outside-court session can provide access to multiple courts in a single day. The latest tournament programme specifically promoted Opening Week as a chance to see qualifying matches and top players practising on Philippe-Chatrier.

For visitors focused on the Grand Slam titles, the singles semi-finals and finals are the central attractions.

Previous year’s highlights

The latest completed Roland-Garros tournament produced new champions in both singles competitions.

Mirra Andreeva won the women’s singles title, defeating Polish qualifier Maja Chwalinska in the final. The victory gave Andreeva her first Grand Slam singles championship and made her the youngest women’s Roland-Garros champion since Monica Seles in 1992.

The men’s singles title was won by Alexander Zverev, with Flavio Cobolli finishing as runner-up. The official Roland-Garros champions list records Zverev as the men’s champion for the latest completed edition.

The women’s doubles championship was won by Katerina Siniakova and Taylor Townsend. The pair defeated Anna Danilina and Aleksandra Krunic in the final, giving the partnership its first Roland-Garros women’s doubles title.

The tournament also provided major stories beyond the finals. The 2026 Opening Week expanded to accommodate up to 20,000 spectators per day, with qualifying matches, practice sessions and entertainment activities across the grounds.

The previous edition also continued Roland-Garros’s accessibility and inclusion initiatives. The organisers stated that 160,000 tickets were priced below $34.20 after conversion from the published €30 reference price, while an under-25 offer was available at approximately $17.10 after conversion from €15.

Official tickets

Individual Roland-Garros 2027 tickets are not yet on sale. The tournament has specifically warned spectators that fraudulent websites are already offering supposed 2027 tickets, hospitality and travel packages. The official tournament announcement states that individual tickets will only be available through the official channels.

The official 2027 ticketing channel is the Roland-Garros ticketing platform. Official hospitality is handled separately, while official travel packages are available through Roland-Garros Travel.

For reference, the latest tournament offered Opening Week grounds access at approximately $33.00 based on the published $1.14-per-euro conversion of the €29 price. The 2026 inclusion programme also referenced approximately $34.20 tickets below the €30 threshold and approximately $17.10 tickets for eligible spectators under 25. These are previous-edition reference prices and are not confirmed 2027 prices.

Visitors should purchase tickets only through the official Roland-Garros channels when the 2027 sale opens.
