Coming to Athens Open with access needs
Athens Open is committed to being a tournament that visitors of every age and ability can enjoy fully. The venue dates from 2004 and has been refit with accessibility in mind — but the best way to make your visit smooth is to tell us what you need in advance.
Below is everything we offer on site, plus the people to contact before you come. None of it requires you to disclose more than you want to.
Wheelchair seating on every court
Wheelchair spaces with companion seat available on Centre Court, Court 1, Court 2 and outer courts. Sightlines verified by the tournament accessibility consultant.
Induction loops + captioning
Centre Court and Court 1 have induction loops (T-coil compatible). On-screen captioning available for ceremonies and major broadcasts.
Audio descriptive commentary
Live audio-descriptive commentary on Centre Court via the Athens Open app. Tactile maps of the venue available at the accessibility desk.
Quiet rooms + flexible re-entry
Two quiet rooms with adjustable lighting and seating. Re-entry permitted for sensory breaks — show your wristband to gate staff.
Welcome at every entrance
Registered service animals welcome throughout the venue. Water stations and shaded rest areas marked on the accessibility map.
