The museum is free for the 2 weeks of the tournament and well worth a visit. There are a lot of great stories and items from the past and present on display. Highly recommend.
Visited the Lawn Tennis Museum as our last stop after a day of matches, and it was the perfect way to end the day. We learned so much about the history of tennis and Wimbledon, along with lots of fun facts. The experience was immersive and engaging, and it was a lovely surprise that you could actually smell strawberries and cream while visiting that section.
Amazing Tournament. Some tips Your Uber or bolt should take you to gate 12 or get down on Marryat road to be near the entrances Carry a reusable water bottle as you have water refills everywhere Take an Amex radio showing ur Amex card to stay in touch Reach early around 10 and watch action on the outer courts. It’s very intimate and nice You can carry a picnic bag with alcohol and food. Goons drink is expensive at Wimbledon so GoTo to Waitrose the night before and get some champagne and sandwiches Toilets are clean. Try to get out early during a break to avoid lines especially for women Carry sunscreen. Try to book 301 to 312 to avoid the sun. The others are in direct exposure to the sun if it’s centrecourt. For Court 1 A to g will be in the sun and rest would be protected. Strawberries and cream and Pimms are a must. Please go before match starts . Take an iconic picture with Fred Perry. You have to line up for it. Try and buy a Wimbledon’s towel. They are very nice and incredibly beautiful. If in a budget just buy lapel pins. Cheap and very presentable After Wimbledon’s hang around the players entrance and you will see all of them leave and enjoy the atmosphere. Exit out of gate 12 0r 13 and walk up the hill 100 metres. You will be able to get an Uber or Bolt back Exit out of gate 5 and 6 to get to the buses back to Wimbledon’s station
Centre court tickets acquired via the ballot. Smooth entrance around 10.30am ensured plenty of time to mooch around the grounds. Very well organised with plenty of people on hand for directions and advice. Evian Refill water bottle option was one of our better choices. Was a little congested at the food vendors but managed. Seats on centre were a decent size and space between rows. Henmam Hill was also decent (get early for the best spot - obviously). Will go again even if it did take us 5 hours to drive back due to road closures going north 😢 Enjoyable day out.
Wow we enjoyed the tour and museum more than imagined! The guide was entertaining and very knowledgeable and the behind the scenes access provided a unique small group experience. Highly recommend getting online tickets beforehand and showing up early for your time. Enjoy!
