Every August, crowds flock to Queens’ Arthur Ashe Stadium for 14 days (now extended to 15 days in 2025) of intense tennis tournaments. The first-ever US Open was actually held in Newport, Rhode Island, before moving to the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills and later to Arthur Ashe Stadium.
This year’s event will bring tennis stars including Jannik Sinner, Aryna Sabalenka, Carlos Alcaraz, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff competing. Not to mention, the 2025 US Open prize money breaks records as the largest purse in tennis history, reaching $90 million in player compensation.
Before the tournament officially kicks off on August 24th, Arthur Ashe Stadium will welcome hundreds of thousands of tennis lovers for the US Open Fan Week beginning August 18th through the 23rd.
Attendees will be able to sip on the notorious Honey Deuce, partake in the first US Open Silent Disco, catch player practices and so much more.
The three-week period of the US Open alone generates over $1.2 billion in economic impact for NYC—more than Mayor Eric Adams and the NYC Economic Development Corporation projects the New York Yankees and Mets to produce during the entire 2025 season, which is expected to bring $909 million in economic impact for the city.
Moreover, an $800 million investment—the largest single investment in US Open history—is underway at Arthur Ashe Stadium to modernize the venue and build a new state-of-the-art Player Performance Center. The entire transformation will occur in three phases with completion set ahead of the 2027 US Open.
Tickets to the 2025 US Open went on general sale on May 30th. However, fans can still purchase what’s left through official selling channels.
