Under $10 in NYC: Free US Open event!

Every week before the scheduled games, the US Open hosts fan week! You can watch star players practice and some qualifying games as well. The best part is it’s all free! The only cost would be the subway or LIRR to get there which will probably cost you $5 or $10 round trip.

USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center

The US Open Fan Week offers a unique experience for tennis enthusiasts and casual fans alike. This special event runs weekly before the main tournament matches, providing a chance to see some of the world's top players up close as they warm up and prepare for the competition ahead. It's also a fantastic opportunity to catch the nail-biting qualifying games where emerging talents battle for their spot in the main draw. Held at the iconic USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, the Fan Week environment is casual and welcoming, making it perfect for families, groups, or individuals wanting to soak in the atmosphere. Besides watching thrilling tennis action, visitors often enjoy interactive activities and explore merchandise from prominent sponsors like Emirates, IBM, and Chase, who consistently support the US Open. For fans concerned about costs, the US Open Fan Week alleviates that stress by offering complimentary entry, which is quite rare for events featuring top-tier professional athletes. Planning ahead can enhance your experience: arriving early to find good viewing spots and participating in fan engagement activities can make your visit memorable. Whether you're a die-hard tennis fan or new to the sport, attending the free US Open Fan Week is a perfect way to experience world-class tennis in an accessible, vibrant setting. Don't miss the chance to witness fast serves, intense rallies, and the sportsmanship that defines one of the most prestigious tennis tournaments globally.
