Planning to watch the world’s best women compete on the Paris clay in 2027? Your first important date arrives six months before the tournament.
Roland Garros has confirmed that its public ticket lottery will return, with registration opening on December 3, 2026. This year, however, applicants must complete an additional bank verification step.
How to Enter the Roland-Garros Ticket Lottery
Fans can register for the ballot between December 3 and 17, 2026 through the official Roland-Garros ticketing website.
Winners will be selected randomly under independent legal supervision and notified by email before the end of March.
Successful applicants receive an assigned sales window, beginning at 10 a.m. Paris time, with queue positions allocated randomly.
Winning the ballot guarantees access to a ticket sale, not tickets themselves. Availability will determine which seats and price categories can actually be purchased.
Why Roland-Garros Now Requires Bank Verification
The biggest change concerns registration.
Applicants must authorize a temporary bank-card verification, designed to discourage fraudulent registrations and automated ticket-buying activity.
Registration remains completely free. No payment will be collected.
Depending on the bank, a temporary €1 authorization may appear on the account before disappearing automatically.
Ticket Limits and Additional Sales
Purchase limits depend on the ticket category:
- Main show courts: Maximum four tickets.
- Outside courts, May 23–30: Maximum four tickets.
- Opening Week, including Yannick Noah Day: Maximum 15 tickets.
- Outside courts, May 31–June 6: Maximum 15 tickets.
A separate public sale begins March 30, 2027, without a lottery, covering Opening Week and second-week outside-court tickets. These will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.
Special Access for French Tennis Federation Members
Members of the FFT (French Tennis Federation) have an exclusive sales period from February 23 at 10 a.m. until March 1, 2027.
Membership must be valid before January 15, and registration through an affiliated club is essential.
Separate arrangements also apply to wheelchair users (UFR) and people with disabilities (PSH).
Premium hospitality and official travel packages are already available.
Beware of Fake Roland-Garros Tickets
Organizers warn that fraudulent websites may imitate the tournament’s official branding.
As of the announcement, individual tickets for Roland-Garros 2027 are not yet on sale.
For WTA fans dreaming of watching the women’s championship in Paris, the message is straightforward: mark December 3, register through official channels and remember that a place in the ballot is only the first hurdle.
