Roland Garros — French Open
The world's premier clay court Grand Slam tournament, held at the iconic Stade Roland Garros in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. Two weeks of elite tennis at the heart of the City of Light.
Roland Garros is more than a tennis tournament — it is a cultural institution. Every May, the finest players in the world descend on Paris to compete on the iconic red clay courts of the Stade Roland Garros. Founded in 1891, the French Open is the second of the four Grand Slam tournaments and the most prestigious clay court event in the world.
For the discerning traveller, Roland Garros offers an unparalleled combination of world-class sport, Parisian elegance and cultural richness. Centre Court and Court Philippe-Chatrier are among the most atmospheric sporting venues in existence, with strawberries, champagne and the unmistakable scent of clay dust creating a sensory experience unlike any other.
Beyond the tennis, Paris in late May is simply magical. The city's finest restaurants, galleries and gardens are at their most spectacular. We recommend staying in the 7th or 16th arrondissement for proximity to the courts — or opting for a private suite at one of the legendary Parisian palaces.
Why It's Worth the Journey
Roland Garros is one of the few sporting events where the setting — Paris in late spring — is as extraordinary as the competition itself. It is an event that combines the finest tennis with the finest city on earth. With VIP hospitality available in the Château de la Mosquée or exclusive boxes, it becomes a genuinely once-in-a-generation experience.

Tennis enthusiasts, families with older children, couples, and anyone passionate about Paris and French culture
