Fans can save 20% and see tennis superstars like Sabalenka, Swiatek, and Gauff in opening days of WTA 1000 event
Tickets for the 2026 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships go on sale tomorrow at midday, with organisers offering fans a 20% discount on tickets for the tournament’s first three days.
The offer gives fans access to top-tier tennis for as little as AED 52 per day. The WTA 1000 event returns to Dubai from February 15–21, followed by ATP 500 men’s competition from February 22–28.
Now entering its 26th edition on the women’s side and 34th for the men’s, the Championships remain one of Dubai’s most established international sporting events.
Reigning Dubai champion Mirra Andreeva
Top Women’s Players Expected
The 2026 women’s field is expected to include World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka, six-time Grand Slam champion Iga Swiatek, American standout Coco Gauff, and Mirra Andreeva, who won the 2025 title at age 17 to become the youngest WTA 1000 champion in history.
Managing Director of Dubai Duty Free, Ramesh Cidambi said:
“With the world’s top women players set to take the court, we’re pleased to launch ticket sales for 2026. The early bird offer makes attending the first days of play more accessible.”
Venue Expansion
The Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium in Al Garhoud is undergoing major upgrades. A new 2,000-seat Court 1 will be ready by February, and Centre Court will expand its capacity by 50% by 2027.
Cidambi said the project will support larger audiences, strengthen the venue’s global broadcast presence, and improve the overall event experience.
Tournament Director Salah Tahlak added:
“This year, Mirra Andreeva emerged from a field that included nine of the world’s top 10 women. We expect similarly competitive line-ups in both tournaments and look forward to another two weeks of elite tennis.”

Tickets are available from October 8 at dubaidutyfreetennischampionships.com and ticketmaster.ae. Prices range from AED 65 to AED 990. The early bird discount applies for a limited time.
