SUMMARY:Wimbledon 2027
DESCRIPTION:Wimbledon 2027 is Monday 28 June 2027 to Sunday 11 July 2027. The Championships run for two weeks starting on the last Monday of June or first Monday of July\, with dates confirmed by the All England Lawn Tennis Club\, and the Gentlemen’s and Ladies’ Singles finals played on the final weekend. \n\nWimbledon dates\n\n\nYear\nDates\n\n\n\n\n2026\nMonday 29 June to Sunday 12 July 2026\n\n\n2027\nMonday 28 June to Sunday 11 July 2027\n\n\n2028\nMonday 3 July to Sunday 16 July 2028 (to be confirmed)\n\n\n\nWhat is Wimbledon?\nThe Championships\, Wimbledon\, is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and the only Grand Slam still played on grass. It has been held at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in south west London since 1877\, when the first Gentlemen’s Singles was won by Spencer Gore. Today the fortnight includes singles\, doubles\, mixed doubles\, wheelchair\, junior and invitation events\, watched by around half a million spectators on site and hundreds of millions on television. Dates\, tickets and the ballot are published by the All England Club. \nWimbledon is known for its traditions: an all white dress code for players\, strawberries and cream\, the Royal Box\, the public ticket ballot and The Queue\, where fans camp overnight for on the day tickets. Play on the middle Sunday was introduced permanently from 2022\, and Centre Court and No.1 Court both have retractable roofs. The 2027 Championships celebrate 150 years since the first tournament. \nWhy it matters for marketers and organisations\nWimbledon anchors the British summer for broadcasters\, hospitality\, food and drink brands\, fashion retailers and sports clubs\, and its official partners are held to strict brand rules\, so most organisations join the moment through unofficial tennis themed activity. Supermarkets see spikes in strawberries\, cream and Pimm’s; pubs and offices screen the finals; and tennis clubs and councils use the fortnight for participation drives. Employers may see people watching matches at work\, and some use it as a team social. The angle is quintessential British summer\, played straight rather than with branding that suggests an official link. \nIdeas: how to mark Wimbledon\n\nServe strawberries and cream in the office or venue on the first Monday and finals weekend.\nScreen the finals in a communal space or beer garden with a sweepstake.\nRun a free tennis taster session with a local club during the second week.\nPublish a plain English guide to scoring\, tie breaks and the ballot for new fans.\nOffer a summer menu or cocktail special that runs for the fortnight.\nShare a history feature on Wimbledon’s 150 years in 2027 with archive images.\nEncourage a lunchtime doubles match or table tennis tournament for staff.\nPromote a healthy summer activity campaign for children tied to the tournament.\n\nKey facts\n\nThe first Championships were held in July 1877 with 22 players.\nRoger Federer holds the men’s singles record with eight titles; Martina Navratilova holds the women’s record with nine.\nCentre Court’s retractable roof was first used in 2009 and No.1 Court’s in 2019.\nAround 38 tonnes of strawberries are served during the fortnight.\nThe public ballot for tickets opens each autumn for the following year’s Championships.\nPrize money in 2025 totalled 53.5 million pounds\, with the singles champions receiving 3 million pounds each.\n\nFrequently asked questions\nWhen is Wimbledon 2028?\nWimbledon 2028 is expected to run from Monday 3 July to Sunday 16 July 2028\, following the usual pattern of starting six weeks after the French Open. The All England Club confirms exact dates\, so treat them as provisional until then. \nHow do I get Wimbledon tickets?\nMost Centre Court and show court tickets are allocated through the public ballot\, which opens the previous autumn. Limited tickets are sold on the day through The Queue\, and resale tickets from spectators who leave early are available on site in the afternoon. \nIs there play on the middle Sunday?\nYes. Since 2022 the Championships have been played on all 14 days\, with the middle Sunday featuring fourth round matches and a mix of ticket types. \nPublished 28 August 2026: dates checked for 2026 to 2028.
