Wimbledon is the No.1 highlight of the annual British sporting calendar. It never fails to draw in the crowds and send them home happy.
And for those only able to watch on TV, it provides a sensational reminder that summer has arrived and has the power to thrill audiences across the land – all without paying a penny.
Reigning champion Novak Djokovic was pushed all the way by a ferocious Nick Kyrgios in 2022, while Elena Rybakina went all the way in the women’s tournament to secure the title.
Of course, there’s still plenty of tennis throughout the rest of the year, but many fans will already be looking way ahead to the next Wimbledon with a chance of tickets coming up.
RadioTimes.com brings you all the dates for Wimbledon 2023 as well as the window of opportunity for the ticket ballot.
When is Wimbledon 2023?
Wimbledon 2023 will begin on Monday 3rd July 2023 and run until the men’s singles final on Sunday 16th July 2023.
As ever, the classic two-week format will return, but the tournament will start one week later than usual due to a schedule change from the All England Club.
