2025 Grand Slam schedule – dates, venues and how to catch every match

If you love tennis, knowing when the big four roll around is the first step to planning your season. The 2025 Grand Slam calendar is set, and you don’t have to hunt for info across multiple sites. Below you’ll find the exact dates, a quick note on each venue and practical advice for tickets, streaming and travel.

Australian Open – Melbourne, January

The year kicks off in the southern summer with the Australian Open. This year the tournament runs from January 13 to January 26 at Melbourne Park. Expect hot days, night matches on the centre court and a buzz that lasts beyond the finals. If you want a seat, buy tickets early – the early‑bird sales usually sell out within weeks. For those who can’t make the trip, the official broadcasters offer a live stream on a pay‑per‑view basis, and many sports bars in the UK carry the feed.

French Open – Roland Garros, May to June

Next up is the clay‑court marathon at Roland Garros. The 2025 edition starts on May 26 and finishes on June 8. Clay changes the game, so players who excel in long rallies dominate here. Ticket demand spikes during the second week, so lock in your seats by mid‑April if you want a good view. Streaming options include the local broadcaster’s online portal; a VPN can help UK fans watch the live feed if it’s geo‑blocked.

Wimbledon – London, late June to early July

Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam that still requires an all‑white dress code. This year the Championships run from June 24 to July 7. The grass courts reward big serves and quick points. Because the stadiums fill up fast, consider a “queue ticket” – you buy a place in line and get a chance to pick seats on the day. If you prefer watching from home, the BBC’s free streaming service covers all matches, though you’ll need a UK TV licence.

US Open – New York, late August to early September

Finally, the US Open wraps up the season in the Big Apple. Dates this year are August 27 to September 9 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Night matches under the lights are a fan favourite. Early‑round tickets are cheaper and easier to snag, while the finals sell out quickly. For UK viewers, the official US Open app offers a subscription stream, and many UK cable packages include the channel that rebroadcasts the matches.

Keeping track of the schedule is easy if you add the key dates to your phone calendar now. Most smartphones let you set reminders a week before each event, so you won’t miss the ticket sales or the first round. If you travel, book accommodation near the venue at least a month in advance – the areas around Melbourne Park, Roland Garros and the USTA centre fill up fast.

Want to follow the action day‑by‑day? Social media accounts of the tournaments post live scores, highlights and behind‑the‑scenes clips. Following the official Instagram or Twitter feeds gives you free, real‑time updates without needing a cable subscription.

In short, the 2025 Grand Slam schedule is set: Australian Open (Jan 13‑26), French Open (May 26‑Jun 8), Wimbledon (Jun 24‑Jul 7) and US Open (Aug 27‑Sep 9). Plan tickets early, use streaming services if you stay home, and set reminders so you never miss a match. Enjoy the season and may your favourite player lift that trophy!"
