In June 2025, I finally made it to the French Open\u2014Roland-Garros! While I didn\u2019t manage to get into Centre Court (Court Philippe-Chatrier), I spent the day exploring the grounds, watching matches on the outside courts, and soaking up the excitement that fills the air. Best of all? My French Open tickets didn\u2019t cost me an arm and a leg.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve ever dreamed of seeing the French Open in person, it\u2019s absolutely worth going\u2014even if you\u2019re not court side for the big matches. In this post, I\u2019ll share how I got affordable tickets, how I got there, and what the experience was like once inside.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll notice in this post that while I\u2019m not including photos of the actual matches or inside the courts, I do have a few snapshots to give you a feel for the atmosphere\u2014like me in front of the official Roland-Garros photo backdrop, the impressive architecture of the Centre Court building, the enthusiastic crowd watching the giant screen outside all the courts, and the Rafael Nadal sculpture at the entrance. These were all taken in public areas outside the match zones, where photography is permitted.<\/p>\n

A quick note about photos and videos at Roland-Garros:<\/strong>
The F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Fran\u00e7aise de Tennis (FFT) has strict rules about sharing match photos or videos taken inside the stadium. I actually had videos removed from Facebook and Instagram, so the only photos I\u2019m sharing are from public areas\u2014no match play or players in action.<\/p>\n

1. How I Got Inexpensive French Open Tickets<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In early 2025 I started seeing posts from Roland-Garros about tickets for the French Open (May 18-June 9, 2025). Ticket access depends on who you are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. French tennis club members<\/strong>-early access from February 10)\u00a0<\/li>\n
  2. Premium packages<\/strong>-available in early March; include lounge access, gourmet food, and better seating<\/li>\n
  3. Public sale draw<\/strong>-for those who registered in December<\/li>\n
  4. Last minute sales<\/strong>\u2013 for Opening Week and second-week outside courts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What I Did<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    I subscribed to Roland-Garros emails, downloaded the app, and entered the public sale draw.<\/p>\n

    My name wasn\u2019t selected but when new tickets were released, I grabbed one for June 6. It gave me access to all the outside courts, shops, and food stands, but not Centre Court).<\/p>\n

    Grandstand tickets are pricey and often bundled with premium packages, so I was happy with my 33 \u20ac ticket (29 \u20ac + 4 \u20ac fee)\u2014it offered plenty to see.<\/p>\n
