WTA 500 Event Reviews

Fantastic organisation - stewards all charming and helpful and friendly. Outside the courts, the grounds have changed - no picket fence (good to lean against when sitting in floor), no Pimms van with its lovely double deckchairs, and it just felt not as exciting and welcoming as in the past.

Fabulous

A very enjoyable few days and as always the venue and organisation of the Tennis was excellent.

Looking forward to 2024.

Easy access from station,no queuing at venue,good view from north stand centre court .Only suggestions to others ,no glass allowed so we couldn’t drink the wine we took to have with lunch,and next time it’ll be in plastic bottle,and seats were hard so take your own cushion.

our visit to the Rothesay Eastbourne tennis tournament was a fantastic day the organization of the event was excellent. we have one negative comment, the amount of outlets for coffee were too little we had to queue for 30 minutes to get a hot drink, other than that it was fantastic

Attended on sat ,as a disabled person I had accessible tickets on centre court.The assistance ,seats ,tennis and whole experience was superb

Fabulous atmosphere at this great tournament. Devonshire Park is second to none. Wimbledon eat your heart out....

I have been every year for 10 years. This year the only place we could sit was in our seats on the court. The tickets are expensive and for the day. There was not enough room or seats outside the courts for everyone there.

Excellent organisation. Stewards were all efficient, and very friendly. Facilities excellent. Went 3 different days on centre and court 1. Both courts provided good seating and excellent views of the court.

I didn’t find it easy purchasing the tickets of my choice for this year.

Had a good time plenty of amenities and courts to watch tennis lovely volunteers.

A great event as always. A shame about some drop outs from the draw. The ticketing experience was unclear and particularly stressful for anyone managing a group. It was never clear when tickets were arriving. The app has a 1.8/5.0 rating and a 10 page guide. What is the point, just print the ticket.

Very good matches wet start!

Excellent Tennis Mon to Fri.

Need more seats to put around Court 4.

Should provide order of play if requested.

Post order of play online sooner on the morning.

I’ve been going to the tournament since 1981. It has changed so much and I’m finding accessing the tickets and getting decent seats is becoming much harder. Security has been increased, which is necessary, unfortunately. However, we always have a good day out and see some decent tennis.

What a fantastic day! A lovely venue with minimal queuing for loos, coffee and entry to the centre court. It felt more relaxed than other tournaments I have attended and closer to the tennis players and action.

An excellent day of outstanding tennis.Stewards and crowd always so friendly.

Enjoyed three wonderful days at Eastbourne with my husband who is 93 and thoroughly enjoys his tennis. The staff stewards were extremely helpful.

Such a friendly atmosphere.

I was able to park near the gate and pop out a few times re re park. However I have now learnt that I will be able to obtain a brown parking permit which I will apply for next year.

Is there priority booking for disabled people please. My husband is not in a wheelchair but finds stairs extremely difficult. I did manage to book online rows Band C which were ok. I hope I can do same next year.

Again excellent venue, great staff and tennis.

Very disappointed with the matches scheduled on centre court on Tuesday. If you pay for a top price ticket you expect to see the best players available

Also the ATP tour has ruined this event for us. It was much better as a WTA event only as the nens event now seems to take priority

Eastbourne is a lovely seaside town with a good variety of accommodation. The venue for tennis is excellent and not overcrowded. An outstanding event where 7 of the top 10 lady players in the world competed to be champion.

We plan to attend next year.
