Wimbledon's Venue Guide

Centre Court

Ivy-clad structure housing the most famous court in tennis.
Maintains an intimate atmosphere throughout and Centre Court tickets are among the most sought-after in the world of sport.

The arena is set for a multi-million pound redevelopment that will see capacity increased to 15,000 and a retractable roof put in place for the 2009 championships.

Court Number One

The purpose-built bowl of a stadium sunk into a hillside replaced the old Number One Court.

One of its advantages is that spectators are afforded an unobstructed view.

The adjoining concourses in the four-storey structure include restaurants, shops and hospitality suites.

Court Number Two

Court Number Two is often known as "The Graveyard of Champions" due to a series of shock results down the years.

Consequently, many top players are unhappy to be sent to play there, though those fans queuing all night for tickets are often more likely to get a seat on this court rather than the two main arenas.

Players' practice courts

Without a show court ticket, one of the best places to see the big names is at the practice courts.

These are to the north of Court Number One at Aorangi Park ('Henman Hill') and are worth a look to see players warming up.

And if you want to get your favourite player's signature, go to Autograph Island, between the practice courts and the giant screen, where spectators queue to get souvenirs of their visit.
