Roland-Garros 2026 ticketing: Everything you need to know
A 100% mobile ticketing system in 2026
Tickets are no longer available in paper format; all purchases must be presented through the official tournament mobile application on a smartphone (iOS or Android): rolandgarros.com
What you need to know:
All tickets are 100% digital and linked to the official Roland-Garros app; no printable or PDF versions are accepted at the entrances.
After purchase, tickets are transferred to the official app a few weeks before the start of the tournament and appear as a QR code to be scanned at the gates.
Once the tickets are in the app, they can be used even without an Internet connection, provided the QR code has already been loaded in the app before entry.
When and how can you buy tickets for Roland-Garros 2026?
Ticket sales for Roland-Garros 2026 operate through a lottery system that grants access to the public ticket sale.
Registration for the lottery was open from December 3 to December 17, 2025.
If you are selected, you will be notified by email before the end of February 2026 with a designated purchase time slot.
Being selected in the draw guarantees access to the ticket sale, but does not guarantee that you will obtain the tickets you want. Please note that some sessions sell out very quickly.
Priority sales for licensed players
Members of the French Tennis Federation (FFT) benefit from a priority sales window from February 10 to February 16, 2026.
To access it, the multi-racket license must be registered and validated by the club at least one week before the opening of this sale.
A second chance at the end of March for everyone!
A new “open to all” sales phase begins in March 2026, following a first-come, first-served basis.
This sale allows you to purchase tickets for:
Opening Week (qualifying rounds and the first days of the tournament)
Matches on the outer courts (such as junior matches, wheelchair tennis, practice sessions, etc.)
Limit on the number of tickets per person
To allow as many people as possible to attend the tournament, the number of tickets per person and per purchase is limited:
Maximum 4 tickets for the main courts (Philippe-Chatrier and Suzanne-Lenglen)
Maximum 15 tickets for the outer courts during Opening Week (May 18–23)
Maximum 4 tickets for the outer courts from May 24 to May 31
Maximum 15 tickets for the outer courts from June 1 to June 7
Prices vary depending on the courts and dates
The starting price, for matches on the outer courts, remains €39.
For those lucky enough to be selected in the draw, ticket prices increase depending on the court and the stage of the tournament. Below are two tables published by the specialized press outlet Avantage Tennis:
Tickets dedicated to people with disabilities
To ensure optimal access to ticket sales, this audience benefits from a dedicated booking period, separate from the general public ticket sale, starting April 1. During this phase, only Wheelchair Users (UFR) and People with Disabilities (PSH) are able to book tickets online.
“Hospitality” tickets: One or more entries with a seated meal overlooking a match
For these packages, ticket prices are guaranteed and listed on the official event website, although they tend to increase as the finals approach.
Prices for these tickets, which all include food and beverage services, start at €260 per person for a seat at Le Comptoir during Opening Week, and can reach €1,585 for two guests at Club Gold for a full day and evening experience, including one parking space.
Also highly sought after are the Club Chatrier private boxes, located on the central court, which offer a private space with both a gourmet lunch and dinner for four guests. Be aware: there is a good chance you may appear on television!
Despite their price, these hospitality packages sell extremely well, especially on weekends.

How to get to Roland-Garros in 2026
Reaching Roland-Garros from the Paris Airports
To reach Stade Roland-Garros from one of Paris’ two main airports, the most convenient option is usually to take a taxi or a private ride service (VTC). The stadium is located close to the Boulevard Périphérique, making it possible to be dropped off relatively nearby.
Orly Airport can be reached via Metro Line 14, which connects with Line 9 at Saint-Lazare station.
From Roissy Charles-de-Gaulle Airport, the journey involves more connections: you must take the RER B to Châtelet–Les Halles, then transfer to Metro Line 14 at Châtelet, with a fairly long walk between the stations.
Access to stade Roland-Garros from Paris
The official address of the stadium is: Stade Roland-Garros, 2 Av. Gordon Bennett, 75016 Paris, located near Porte d’Auteuil and the Bois de Boulogne.
Please note: there is no direct access to the stadium gates at Roland-Garros.
You must pass through one of the three Mandatory Access Points (PPO) before entering the controlled perimeter of the stadium.
PPO Boulogne - the main pedestrian access point
PPO Auteuil
PPO Molitor
The Auteuil and Molitor access points are the closest to Metro Line 9 stations. The most sought-after courts are generally closer to the PPO Boulogne entrance.
Access by metro
Take Metro Line 9 and exit at Michel-Ange Molitor (PPO Molitor) or Michel-Ange Auteuil (PPO Auteuil).
Access by bus
Line 22: terminus Porte de Saint-Cloud (15-minute walk from PPO Molitor)
Line 32: terminus Porte d’Auteuil (2-minute walk from PPO Auteuil)
Line 52: stops at Porte d’Auteuil (2-minute walk from PPO Auteuil) or La Tourelle (10-minute walk from PPO Molitor)
Accessible access PRM
The most convenient route using accessible public transportation is via RER C + Tram T3a, stopping at Pont du Garigliano station. An official shuttle service can then be booked in advance to complete the journey to the stadium entrance.
Fast dining options during Roland-Garros
Bar des Mousquetaires: one of the most well-known stands, offering sandwiches, hot dishes, and quick grab-and-go options.
Hot dog stands (located near the main courts, notably around Court 6 and in the walkways near Philippe-Chatrier) for a quick snack.
Food Court: a large area with several small stands offering items such as croque-monsieur, galettes, pitas, and chicken with fries.
Pretzel Corner: for pretzels and savory snacks.
Grocery Stores: small convenience-style outlets with drinks, salads, wraps, and a variety of snacks, located near Suzanne-Lenglen, Court 6, and Fonds des Princes.
Click & Collect via the official Roland-Garros mobile app: you can order food in advance and pick it up quickly, helping you avoid long queues.
Good to know
Food prices inside the tournament grounds are generally higher than outside the venue.
Even though many quick options are available, it is still advisable to allow some time for queues between matches.
