The lottery stays
Fancy a seat at Roland-Garros next year? You will need some luck first. The French Tennis Federation said on Thursday it is keeping the ballot for general public ticket sales for the 2027 edition, pointing to demand it described as bigger than ever. The system was first used in 2025.
The dates are locked in. Qualifying runs from May 17 to 21, the main draw from May 23 to June 6. Tickets reserved for the federation’s registered club members are handled separately and are not part of the ballot.
no renewal
Free for 2 weeks.
How the draw works
Registration runs from Thursday, December 3 to Thursday, December 17, on the tournament’s official ticketing site. The draw does not hand out tickets directly. It hands out purchase slots. Successful fans will be told at the end of March, and each one gets a single window to buy, opening at 10am, with their place in the online queue assigned at random.
There are caps. Four tickets per person for the three main courts, Philippe-Chatrier, Suzanne-Lenglen and Simonne-Mathieu, and four for the outside courts between May 23 and 30. The limit goes up to 15 for Opening Week, Yannick Noah day included, and to 15 again for the outside courts from May 31 to June 6, a package that also covers the upper ring of Simonne-Mathieu.
A second door from March 30
Missing out in the ballot does not end the story. As in 2025, an open sale on a first-come, first-served basis starts on March 30. It covers Opening Week, which is the qualifying week, and the outside courts during the tournament’s final week.
