Full Wimbledon 2026 Schedule — Day by Day

The complete day-by-day tennis Wimbledon schedule for the 2026 Championships. The tournament spans 14 playing days across two weeks, with no rest day — Middle Sunday play was made permanent in 2022.

Day Date Round / Event Start (BST) Your Local Time

* Outer courts start at 11:00 BST every day. Centre Court and Court 1 typically start at 13:30 BST, except on finals days when play begins at 14:00 BST. The “Your Local Time” column is auto-calculated from your device’s timezone.

How the Wimbledon Order of Play Works

The Wimbledon order of play (also called the schedule of play) is the official daily list of which matches happen on which courts and in what sequence. Understanding how it works helps you plan your viewing day.

1
Published the evening before

The referee’s office releases each day’s order of play around 7:00 PM BST the previous evening on wimbledon.com. It is never confirmed further in advance.

2
Matches are listed in sequence, not by time

Only the first match on each court has a fixed start time. Every following match begins when the previous one ends — so “2nd on Centre Court” could start anywhere from 3 PM to 6 PM.

3
Show courts get the marquee matches

Defending champions traditionally open Centre Court on Day 1 (men) and Day 2 (women). Top seeds rotate between Centre Court and Court 1 through the first week.

4
Rain changes everything

Outer-court matches can be suspended and moved. Centre Court and Court 1 have retractable roofs, so their schedule rarely shifts — another reason the biggest matches go there.

Wimbledon Centre Court & Court 1 Schedule

The two show courts follow a different daily rhythm from the rest of the grounds. Here’s the typical Wimbledon court schedule for both.

Court Daily Start (BST) Matches Per Day Roof Typical Use
Centre Court 13:30 (14:00 finals) 3 (2 on finals days) ✅ Retractable Top seeds, all finals, defending champions
Court 1 13:00 3 ✅ Retractable Quarter finals, high-profile seeded matches
Court 2 11:00 4 ❌ Open air Seeded matches, doubles, “Graveyard of Champions”
Court 3 11:00 4 ❌ Open air Early-round singles, doubles
Courts 4–18 11:00 4–5 ❌ Open air First & second round matches, juniors, qualifying
💡
Insider tip: The 11 PM BST curfew means Centre Court matches must finish by 11:00 PM local time, no matter the score. If a match is suspended overnight, it resumes the following day — usually first on the schedule.
