Your Wimbledon 2020 Championships Itinerary
Two-Day Tour Itinerary
Day One
You will be collected from your school or
college early in the morning and then taken to
Wimbledon. We plan to arrive during the late
morning, in good time to see play commence.
Play normally commences at around 1pm or
2pm on No.1 Court, and generally a little earlier
on No.2 and No.3 Courts and the outside
courts. The Championships’ scheduling and how
the weather has been during the previous days
will determine exactly which matches are
played on each court, however, whatever
matches you see, you are sure to be amazed at
the incredible quality and speed of the tennis!
At the close of play, which can be at any time
between 6.30pm and 8.30pm, dependent on
the number and length of the matches to be
played, we will transfer you to your overnight
accommodation. We recommend that you
have an early dinner at Wimbledon, prior to                                                                                             ©AELTC/Matthias Hangst
