Whether you’re rooting for Coco Gauff to defend her 2023 title or watching Novak Djokovic break more records, the US Open schedule is chock full of excitement. There’s a lot to take in over two weeks as the field of players dwindles until just two men and women are left to fight for one of the four Grand Slam titles.
The main event takes place from Monday August 18- Thursday August 23 (Finals day is Sunday September 8), but don’t miss the FREE qualifying tournament and week before that. The qualifiers are the best opportunity to see major rising players. In fact, 2021’s Emma Raducanu became the first qualifier to win a Grand Slam.
US Open tickets are available for purchase on the tournament website, with a variety of ticket options including resale and standard face value tickets (shown as “blue dots” on the detailed seat map for each session). You’ll want to shop around, look in several different browser tabs, use multiple computer windows/screens, etc. to find the best prices and seats. Keep in mind that resale tickets are often subject to price fluctuations over time and the availability of standard tickets may be limited.
Note that you will need a cable subscription to watch the matches on ESPN/ESPN2. You can get around this by buying a yearly pass to ESPN+ (the streaming service that comes with your sports package). The app curates live events and you can watch up to 4 simultaneous matches at once. The only catch is that you can’t stream Arthur Ashe matches, which are preempted by ESPN.
