Opening Week, 11–16 January

The main draw, 17–31 January
From Sunday 17 January, the competition begins in earnest. Days are spent courtside or exploring the outdoor courts and festival zones with a ground pass, while evenings bring marquee night sessions, live music and DJ sets across the precinct. After the final point, it's a short stroll back to your room or suite, with views over the Melbourne skyline, the MCG and Fitzroy Gardens.
Finals weekend, 30–31 January
The women's and men's champions are crowned across the final weekend, the most electric two days on Melbourne's summer sporting calendar. Stay for the weekend and enjoy late check-out (subject to availability), so Monday morning can unfold at your own pace.
