WIMBLEDON FOR FIRST TIMERS | How to Get Tickets, Queue, Tips & Important Updates!

[@HappytoWander]

Hey everyone!! I know this is a bit different to my usual travel content but I learned SO much from my first ever Wimbledon experience this week that I decided to put this guide together for anyone planning on attending this year or in the future. I hope you find it helpful!!!

[@fort891]

I am a regular at Wimbledon. This is simply too good….the amount of effort you must have taken to script this is really admirable….very comprehensive…you hardly missed anything. Start to finish…all key things addressed one by one in a smooth flow. Kudos❤

[@davidbassani3135]

So helpful! Ticketing is SO complicated and you made it seem doable. Thank you!

[@arnavsanwal]

This was so helpful and after a long long time I’ve seen a video this informative and needed absolute appreciation ❤️

[@HappytoWander]

Wow I really appreciate that! Thanks so much for watching.

[@Validheart]

Thank you for sharing. What an experience. I'm a fanatic when it comes to tennis. Every year I try to catch all the tournaments on the tennis channel or on my phone. But Im sure its nothing like the real thing. Having a real experience is definitely on my bucket list.🙂

[@HappytoWander]

It was such a wonderful experience! I hope you get a chance to enjoy it soon 🫶

I took part once in this ticket ballot! I got ticket for CC, watching Federer, Djokovic, Muguruza! I was this lucky! ❤ Still remember this day! ❤ PS You watched Dimi? You were lucky too, he is my boy. I watched him on the outside courts, took a picture with him as well.

[@HappytoWander]

Wow that’s an amazing ballot draw! You must have been so excited. And yes we saw Dimi in his first match of the tournament! He was incredible 👏

This was a very helpful video, thanks. I’m a huge tennis fan (women and men). I love when Coco Gauff, an American, won her 1st Grand Slam title at 19 years old at the US Open last year (2023). Wimbledon is another Grand Slam that I’d LOVE to attend one year along with the other 3 Grand Slams. The Wimbledon queue actually looks fun and I’m glad you got a No. 2 court ticket even though you only arrived the night before. Some people arrive to queue 2-3 days before so watching your video made me realize that you don't have to arrive very early to get a ticket.

Amazing guide to Wimbledon. Thank You!

[@HappytoWander]

Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[@puddinheads1984]

Ooooh, so jealous, I am a tennis player and huge fan, been to U.S and French opens but Wimbledon is top of the bucket list.

[@HappytoWander]

It was so fun!! I hope you get to go someday soon!

[@kingston4313]

The queue is actually quite fun. There so many people, just bring something to lie on, food and youre set

[@HappytoWander]

Agreed!!! I would definitely do it again in a heartbeat haha

[@Towanda-xq2xg]

Thanks for sharing, please forgive me, will not be doing all that, definitely have to find someone who can get us tickets, stay blessed, keep up the amazing work and let's go! 👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊

[@HappytoWander]

Hahah it’s definitely not for everyone!!! Wishing you the best of luck in securing tickets 💪

Thank you

Haha fun story: my eye doctor was about to squeeze me in due to an emergency and wanted to see me before i went to London so he could place his order😂. When i asked him if he decided, he asked for a seat from Wimbledon. I told him it's not going to fit in my carry on so he's out of luck. He's a funny guy! I did find out his favorite treat and bought him and his staff a lot from London and he was so happy. Haha his jaw actually dropped.

[@HappytoWander]

Haha next time you’ll have to get him a Wimbledon hat or pin or something!

[@yaowsers77]

@@HappytoWander lol I was thinking that when I saw yours! Is there a shop open year round? I travel from November to March so I'd never get there during the event.

[@ingridberanek8564]

Hi, i really loved your video, helped a lot. But i didn't understand one thing, if I decide to go like 2 or 3 days to the tournament, i have to stay at the Queue again ?

[@worldsasuri9430]

Hi.😃I just wanted to understand. At what time is it possible to start getting into the virtual resale line?

[@MusicMendicant]

How can we buy Wimbledon Grounds Passes? Same Queue?

[@HappytoWander]

Yup same queue!

[@MusicMendicant]

@@HappytoWander Thanks

[@prashant9108]

What was the price of the ticket that you got?

[@patricksoucy3221]

Hey ! I Have a question for you. It will be my first experience to Wimbledon un 2025 and I'm wondering ..what is the earliest time I can come in for the queue the day before. I saw that you came at 9PM but it was already busy.

[@pawlowski6132]

Any idea, after first 1500, how many more grounds passes are available?

[@HappytoWander]

I think within the first 10,000 you’re almost guaranteed a grounds pass!! And they often let more people in beyond that but it’ll depend on the day. I’ve heard reports now of people coming at noon and walking straight in since the second week is less competitive! Best of luck :)

[@pawlowski6132]

@@HappytoWander We went at 1pm and walked right in

[@HappytoWander]

@@pawlowski6132 amazing. Hope you had a great time!

[@comfortm1506]

Question: Could someone not get in the queue, receive their queue card and then go home until the day of, instead of camping?

[@HappytoWander]

They say you can’t leave for more than 30 minutes at a time, and that they do frequent checks throughout the night! I didn’t get checked (maybe because I arrived late) but overall, everyone becomes familiar with who’s around them in the queue so you would have a really tough time trying to sneak back in, I think! There’s a really nice communal vibe to the whole thing and I think trying to cheat the system would probably not work in anyone’s favour haha
