In case it’s not clear above, there are general admission seats in the Grandstand and Louis Armstrong Stadium (first come, first served – er, first served), so we wouldn’t really recommend buying tickets to either of those when you’re considering which type of ticket to buy. However, you can get into Arthur Ashe Stadium with just an Ashe ticket.

In this writer’s humble opinion, it essentially boils down to an Ashe ticket or a Grounds Pass. If you want to see a superstar play, be sure to buy a ticket to Ashe as there will definitely be some exciting play during both the day and the evening. The most important games of the tournament are there – so you’ll see the world’s No. 1 and American stars play there.

If you’re just looking for the atmosphere (and drinking lots of Honey Deuces), get a Grounds Pass during the first week so you can walk around and see as much as possible.

The best seats are always those that are closer to the court. If you don’t want to have to turn your head from side to side for every point, we recommend sitting behind the baseline or in the corner of the court.

The playing order for each day isn’t announced until the day before, so you could theoretically wait to buy tickets until you see the lineup, but we don’t recommend doing that, as prices will definitely skyrocket once the players are announced.

However, if you go by the stars, you can roughly guess who will play on which day based on the schedule of the first two days: Unless there are rain delays, players usually have a schedule for every other day. For example, if Coco Gauff plays on Monday and she wins, she’ll play on Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, etc. Usually, the top seeds also alternate between day and night sessions, so if Carlos Alcaraz’s first match is a night session, there’s a good chance (if he wins) that his second match will be during the day session.

You can buy them from Ticketmaster or resale sites like StubHub, SeatGeek, and VividSeats. StubHub probably offers the cheapest options.

On the ticket pages, all days are listed by date and session, so on day one there is session 1 (day), session 2 (night), on day two there is session 3 (day), session 4 (night), and so on and so forth.

And if you can’t get tickets this year, don’t worry: ESPN is broadcasting the entire tournament every day, and if you don’t have cable, you can watch it on ESPN+. Sign up for ESPN+
