Australian Open Rod Laver Arena: Lower Tier18 Jan - 1 Feb 2026 · Melbourne Park

As the Australian Open's main show court, Rod Laver Arena is steeped in the prestige of this historic tournament. Rod Laver Arena hosts some of the tournament's most high-profile match-ups, guaranteeing a wealth of awesome athleticism and jaw-dropping skill for spectators all tournament long.

Seats in the Lower Tier provide excellent views of the court, from a vantage point located in closer proximity to the players than seats in the Upper Tier.

The Lower Tier is highlighted in light blue on the seating map.
