Q. I have tickets for the Day Session, but not for the Evening, will I have access to the Evening Sessions matches?

Once the last Day Session match on Stadium Court is complete, guests will be asked to leave the Stadium Court so it can be cleaned for the Evening Session ticket holders. Guests with Day Session tickets will have the opportunity to stay on the grounds to watch matches on the outer courts but will not have access to the Evening Session matches taking place in the Stadium Court. Day Session guests wanting to stay and watch the matches in the Stadium Court during the Evening Session may purchase tickets at our Advance Ticket Center (located at Guest Services) based on availability.

Q. I have Evening Session tickets…what time can I enter the Grounds and when will I have access to the Stadium matches?

Guests with Evening Session tickets have access to the Grounds at 5:00 pm, but will not have access to the Stadium until the scheduled Day Session matches are completed. If Day Session matches happen to run late due to lengthy matches or weather delays, Evening Session guests will not have access to the Stadium until the last Day Session match is finished…but are welcome to watch matches taking place on the outer courts.

Q. I want to purchase tickets to watch my favorite player play, when is he or she scheduled?

The Miami Open is a single-elimination tennis tournament.
