We can’t all be lucky enough to get the hottest ticket in tennis. And the organisers recognise that. That’s why around 7,000 tickets are available on a first-come-first served basis for those who join ‘The Queue’. Setting your alarm in the early hours (or camping at the grounds the night before) is a rite of passage for true tennis fans. And while ...
First nicknamed after British player Tim Henman’s success in the 1990’s, ‘Henman Hill’ is an iconic spot to watch tennis at Wimbledon. Spectators sit on this hill and watch enormous live screens of Centre Court and Court 1 matches. You’ll hear the ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ as epic points are played out. And see the occasional champagne cork flying overhead...
Wimbledon’s player dress code is as strict as it gets. All competitors risk disqualification if they don’t wear all white clothing, and they are reminded that ‘white does not include off-white or cream’. In fact, even undergarments must be white – and even the great Roger Federer had to change his tennis shoes in 2013 because they had orange soles!...
This delicious tradition has stuck ever since strawberries and cream were served at the first Wimbledon Championships in 1877. Incredibly, about 25 tonnes of strawberries and 7,000 litres of fresh cream are devoured every Wimbledon fortnight. And just a glimpse of these huge, juicy red fruits will make you run to a ‘strawberries and cream’ stand fo...
Did you know Wimbledon is largest single annual sporting catering operation in Europe? Pimm’s and lemonade definitely has a say in that – with 320,000 Pimms glasses sold every fortnight on sight. This gin-based fruity mixer comes with large chunks of fruit, plus a straw to sip through as you stroll the pristine grounds looking for your next match t...
Being a quintessentially British event, it’s only right members of the Royal Family are there. King George V and Queen Mary were the first to start this tradition in the early 1900’s. And today, Queen Elizabeth, Kate Middleton and Prince William (and more) are invited by the Chairman of the All England Club to sit in the ‘Royal Box’ – the best seat...
Wimbledon is the oldest and most prestigious Grand Slam, and the only one to be played on grass. This pristine surface – and the care given to it – make it unlike any other sporting event in the world. As the sun rises over the grounds every morning, all courts are mowed (to exactly 8mm tall), rolled and painted with fresh lines. There are more ins...
Cheering local favourites like Andy Murray, Emma Raducanu, Katie Boulter and Cameron Norrie is a British tradition. Full of first pumps! So whether you’re watching on Murray mound, Centre Court or one of London’s many beer gardens showing Wimbledon matches, you’ll want to get involved. Just remember that cool glass of cool Pimm’s. What is your favo...
