Wimbledon 2026 — 14 days
Day 4 is statistically the day with the most five-setters. Long matches, packed schedules, and the kind of unscripted drama only Grand Slam Round 2 produces.
Day 4 wraps up the men's and women's second rounds. Schedule typically loads Centre Court with the highest seeds, while Courts 1, 2 and 3 host fascinating mid-draw clashes. By the end of play, only 64 players remain in each singles draw — half of the original field already eliminated.
Highlights
- Round 2 completion across all draws
- Highest seeds on Centre Court — top names guaranteed
- Doubles continues to deepen draws
- Best day for five-setters — statistically

Venue & location
What past guests say
Frequently asked
What time should I arrive?
The grounds open at 10:30. We recommend arriving by 11:30 to enjoy the atmosphere, get refreshments, and find your court before play starts. On final days, arrive earlier for security and ceremony viewing.
What is the dress code?
Smart casual for the grounds. The Royal Box and Debenture areas require jackets for gentlemen (no jeans or sportswear). Players wear all-white — a tradition strictly enforced for competitors but not for spectators.
Can I bring food and drink?
Yes, you may bring your own food and one bottle of wine or champagne, or two cans of beer per person. Glassware over 250ml is not permitted. Strawberries and cream from the on-site stands are a must-try.
What if it rains?
Centre Court and Court 1 both have retractable roofs — play continues. Outer courts pause and resume after rain stops; if your reserved match is cancelled, you may be entitled to a refund per AELTC's published rain policy.
Is there transport to the venue?
Closest tube: Southfields (District Line, 15-min walk) or Wimbledon (10-min walk + free shuttle). London Underground runs frequently. Taxis and Uber are available; pre-booked transfers are included in our packages.
Can I move between courts?
With a Ground Pass you have access to all outer courts (Court 2 onwards) on a first-come, first-served basis. Reserved Centre Court / Court 1 tickets give you that specific court only.
What's included in my package?
Match tickets at your chosen tier, hand-picked hotel close to Wimbledon or Central London, breakfast options at most properties, dedicated FanVoyage concierge, and a printed information pack on arrival.
Can I get a refund if a specific player is eliminated early?
Tickets are for the match scheduled on your court, not a specific player. Players are seeded into matches based on the previous day's results. Refunds are not available for changes in line-up.
