As the 2025 Wimbledon Championships draw near, tennis fans are scrambling for tickets to avoid the notoriously long queues outside the All England Club.
More than 500,000 spectators are expected to visit southwest London between June 30 and July 13, eager to witness Grand Slam action featuring stars like Carlos Alcaraz and Coco Gauff. If you want to join them, there are four key ways to get your hands on a Wimbledon tennis ticket—plus one insider trick that skips the queue entirely.
1. Debenture Tickets – The Insider ‘Hack’
The most exclusive way to experience Wimbledon is through Debenture tickets, which offer premium seating and access to upscale bars and restaurants within the venue. These tickets also provide unmatched views of Centre Court.
This year’s official providers include Seat Unique, Wimbledon Debenture Owners, and the official Wimbledon website. Prices for Debenture tickets start at £1,898, and availability is already limited.
If you’re looking for a way to walk straight into the tournament with comfort and style, this is the “secret hack” you’ll want to consider. But act fast—once they sell out, they’re gone.
2. Ticket Resale
If you’re searching for match tickets, resale platforms like StubHub and Viagogo already offer listings for key matches, including Semi-Finals and Doubles Finals.
Alternatively, if you secure a Ground Pass on the day by joining The Queue, you may be able to upgrade to a Show Court ticket. Visit the Ticket Resale Kiosk, located near No.1 Court, and queue again for the chance to trade up.
Keep in mind, though, that with resale tickets, there’s no guarantee you’ll make it to Centre Court—even if you’re already inside the grounds.
3. The Queue
Wimbledon’s famous Queue remains a traditional and exciting option. Each morning, about 500 tickets per show court are handed out to dedicated fans who camp overnight or arrive early outside the grounds.
Even if you’re late to join the line, you might still be able to buy a Ground Pass, which gives you access to the Wimbledon venue but not the major courts.
4. Public Ballot
The Wimbledon ballot, in place since 1924, allows fans to enter a draw for a chance to purchase tickets. It’s the most common route for the general public.
However, the ballot for 2025 is already closed, and these tickets cannot be resold or transferred. According to Wimbledon’s official policy, any tickets listed for sale elsewhere will be voided.
