Wimbledon is said to be the oldest and most prestigious tennis tournament in all of Europe. The tournament starts during the end of June and lasts until the first week of July every year. As one of the four major tennis tournament, Wimbledon has managed to uphold traditions by allowing players to play on real grass surface and imposing strict dress codes to all the players.

Securing Wimbledon tickets is close to impossible especially when the finals match is just around the corner. This is even more true if you are not a member of the Lawn Tennis Association or any of its affiliate organizations. But if you really are a lawn tennis fan, you shouldn't miss the chance of watching the championships live. So, how can you do so? Here are a few great options:

Join the public ballot

If you feel pretty lucky, then one option is to join the public ballot. Go to the AELTC, request for a form and submit the application so that you can be entitled for the ticket draw. You can secure Wimbledon tickets if your name gets drawn in the raffle.

Stand on the queue

Another option is to go to the ticketing office and stand on the long queue. It has been part of Wimbledon tradition to see thousands of fans camping out 4 days before the championships to buy tickets to watch the game live. Normally, they sell about 500 tickets everyday and a huge 6,000 tickets on the grand day. Camping out and waiting in line for tickets can be one remarkable experience as people from all over the world fly out to London just to see the championship match. This makes the atmosphere festive and friendly as lawn tennis fans commune and celebrate with each other.

Order online

You can secure Wimbledon tickets online too. There are many websites that sell exclusive VIP tickets to Wimbledon but the number is limited. What you can do is to look for a reputable website and reserve or buy tickets from them. This may cost a bit more since the tickets are reserved but it will sure be well worth it.
