The 2027 season runs from the United Cup on January 1 to the finals in November, with four Grand Slams, nine ATP Masters 1000s and ten WTA 1000s along the way. Here is every major tournament, month by month, and how to plan a trip to each.
The majors
The Four Tennis Grand Slams
The Grand Slams, or majors, are the four biggest tournaments in tennis and the only events where men and women both play 128-player singles draws. They run in the same order every year: Melbourne in January, Paris in late May, London from late June and New York from late August.

Slam 3 · Grass court
Wimbledon
Jun 28–Jul 11, 2027
All England Club, London
2026 champions: Jannik Sinner and Linda Nosková
Most tickets come through the public ballot and the Queue, not resale sites. Our guide walks through both.

One level below the Slams
ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 Tournaments
The 1000s are named for the ranking points the winner earns, and they're the biggest events outside the four majors. Five of them put both tours on the same grounds in the same fortnight, which makes them the best value trips in tennis. Canada is combined too, but the men and women play in different cities.
Both tours, same grounds
BNP Paribas Open
Two weeks in the Coachella Valley at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden, and the event most often called tennis's fifth Slam.
Miami Open
Played on the Hard Rock Stadium campus, with the main court built inside the Dolphins' stadium.
Mutua Madrid Open
The Caja Mágica's retractable roofs and Madrid's altitude make it the fastest clay of the spring.
Italian Open
Played at the Foro Italico, the same sports complex as the Stadio Olimpico, and the last big stop before Roland Garros.
Cincinnati Open
The last 1000 before the US Open, at the Lindner Family Tennis Center about 25 miles northeast of downtown Cincinnati.
National Bank Open
Canada's 1000 splits the tours between two cities and swaps them every year, so check which city has the draw you want.
One tour only
Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters
Clay above the Mediterranean, and the opening big event of the European clay season.
Rolex Shanghai Masters
The biggest stop on the men's Asian swing.
Rolex Paris Masters
The last 1000 of the year and one of the final chances to qualify for Turin.
Qatar Open and Dubai
Back-to-back WTA 1000s in the Gulf in February.
China Open
A WTA 1000 that runs alongside an ATP 500, so both tours are in town.
Wuhan Open
The final WTA 1000 of the season before the Finals.
Coming in 2028: the ATP adds a tenth Masters 1000 in Saudi Arabia, the first new event at this level since the series began in 1990.
Season finales
ATP Finals, WTA Finals and Team Events 2027
Only the top eight singles players and doubles teams on each tour qualify for the season finals, which makes them the most concentrated week of tennis all year. Two of 2027's biggest team events are in the United States.
WTA Finals
The women's season finale moves to the home of the Charlotte Hornets, the first of three years in Charlotte.
Nitto ATP Finals
Turin has hosted the men's finale since 2021 and is confirmed through 2027.
Laver Cup
Team Europe against Team World for the event's 10th edition, at the Clippers' new arena in Inglewood.
United Cup
A mixed men's and women's national-team event that opens the season in Australia.
Davis Cup Finals
The men's national-team finals close the year the week after the ATP Finals.
Close to home
Pro Tennis Tournaments in the U.S.

Go in person
Best Tennis Tournaments to Attend
Tennis is one of the better-value live sports, especially early in a tournament, when a single grounds pass gets you onto every outer court. These are the trips worth building a year around.
01MarchHard
BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells
Best for Getting close to the players
Two weeks of desert sun, both tours on one site, and practice courts where you can watch the top players from a few feet away. A first-week grounds pass is the value play. The desert is in peak season in March, so book hotels early.
02Late AugustHard
US Open, New York
Best for Night-session atmosphere
Night sessions in Arthur Ashe Stadium are the loudest atmosphere in the sport. The first-week grounds pass covers the outer courts, where you'll see seeded players for a fraction of an Ashe ticket.
03Late JuneGrass
Wimbledon, London
Best for Tradition, and the Queue
Grass courts, all-white kit, strawberries and cream, and the Queue, where fans line up overnight for same-day tickets.
04JanuaryHard
Australian Open, Melbourne
Best for First-time Slam visitors
The most relaxed Slam to attend. Melbourne Park is a short walk or tram ride from the city center, and a ground pass gets you onto the outer courts and the big-screen areas.
05Late MayClay
Roland Garros, Paris
Best for Clay and a week in Paris
Red clay and Paris in late spring. The grounds are the most compact of the four Slams, so the best days sell out fast through the official site.
06Late MarchHard
Miami Open, Miami Gardens
Best for Pairing with Indian Wells
The only top-tier tournament played inside an NFL stadium. Pair it with Indian Wells and you've done the Sunshine Double.
How to plan a tennis trip
1
Go early in the tournament
The first few days have the most matches on the most courts, and the cheapest tickets. The second week has fewer matches and higher prices.
2
Know your session
At the Slams and the big U.S. events, day and night sessions are separate tickets. Check which one you're buying before you pay.
3
Book hotels before tickets
Indian Wells, Mason and the Slam cities fill up on the dates, not the draw. Lock in a refundable room first, then buy tickets.
4
Use official channels for Wimbledon and Roland Garros
Both restrict resale, so buy through the ballot, the Queue or the official site rather than a third-party seller.
Quick answers
Tennis Tournament FAQ
The questions fans ask most about the Grand Slams, the two tours and the 2027 schedule, answered short.
What are the four Grand Slams in tennis?
The Australian Open (January, hard courts, Melbourne), Roland Garros, also called the French Open (late May to June, clay, Paris), Wimbledon (late June to July, grass, London) and the US Open (late August to September, hard courts, New York).
Is there a fifth Grand Slam in tennis?
No, there are only four. Indian Wells is often nicknamed the "fifth Slam" because of its size, crowds and full field from both tours, but it's a 1000-level event.
Has anyone won all four Grand Slams?
Five singles players have won all four in one calendar year: Don Budge (1938), Maureen Connolly (1953), Rod Laver (1962 and 1969), Margaret Court (1970) and Steffi Graf (1988). Many more have won all four across their careers. Carlos Alcaraz completed his at the 2026 Australian Open.
Who has won the most Grand Slams?
Novak Djokovic holds the men's record with 24 singles titles. Margaret Court also won 24 on the women's side, and Serena Williams holds the Open Era record with 23.
Which Grand Slam is the hardest to win?
There's no official answer, but players most often point to Roland Garros. Slow red clay and best-of-five-set men's matches make it the most physical major, and it's where Rafael Nadal won a record 14 titles.
What tennis tournaments are in 2027?
The ATP's 2027 calendar has 59 tournaments plus the four Grand Slams, and the WTA's has 55 events. The biggest are the four Slams, nine ATP Masters 1000s, ten WTA 1000s, and the season finals in Turin and Charlotte.
What are the next tennis tournaments coming up?
The 2027 season opens on January 1 with the United Cup in Perth and Sydney, followed by Brisbane, Adelaide and Auckland. The Australian Open starts January 17, and the full month-by-month schedule is in the calendar above.
What is the order of tennis tournaments?
By importance, it goes Grand Slams, the ATP and WTA Finals, then the 1000s, 500s and 250s. By date, the season runs from Australia in January to the Middle East, the Sunshine Double in March, clay in spring, grass in June, North American hard courts in summer, Asia in the fall and the finals in November.
Where are the ATP and WTA Finals in 2027?
The Nitto ATP Finals are at Inalpi Arena in Turin, Italy, November 14–21. The WTA Finals are at Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina, November 10–14, the first of three years there.
What's the difference between the ATP and WTA?
The ATP runs the men's professional tour and the WTA runs the women's. The Grand Slams are run by their own organizers and include both, and combined events like Indian Wells and Miami put both tours on the same grounds.
