Initially players will only be allowed to challenge certain calls made by the chair umpires on matches at the Centre Court and Court One and on the other four show courts when they are hosting singles matches (No. 2 Court, No. 3 Court, Court 12 and Court 18).[3][4]

Special events

The Wimbledon Court in Central Park

In June 2026, the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club will be organizing ‘‘The Wimbledon Court in Central Park’’, a four-day promotional event which will be held at the Wollman Rink in Central Park, New York City, from 26 to 29 June. The event will form part of Wimbledon’s annual outreach activities in the United States, following the ‘‘The Hill in New York’’ event, which has been staged annually since 2022.[5]

For the first time, the venue will be transformed into a temporary grass court constructed and maintained by Wimbledon’s groundstaff. The centerpiece of the event will be ‘‘The Wimbledon Court Invitational’’, an exhibition doubles match featuring former professional players and tennis personalities, which will be held on 26 June.[5]

On 27 and 28 June, members of the public will be given the opportunity to play on the grass court through a ballot system. The event will also feature tennis clinics, interactive activities, and Wimbledon-themed hospitality, including traditional strawberries and cream, Pimm’s, and Champagne.[5]

As part of Wimbledon’s community engagement initiatives, a tennis session will be held on 29 June for participants of the Barclays Net Work programme, a youth employment and skills initiative operating in the Bronx in partnership with Good Shepherd Services. The programme supports young people aged 15–24 who are unemployed, disconnected from education, or have experience with the justice system.[5]

The event will be concluded with a public screening of the opening day’s play from the 2026 Wimbledon Championships, broadcast live on giant screens in Central Park. According to the All England Club, the initiative is intended to provide American tennis fans with an opportunity to experience elements of Wimbledon’s traditions and atmosphere outside the United Kingdom.[5]
