ATP Finals: Dates, Tickets & Venue (London)

London hosted it until 2020

London is where many fans still picture this tournament. From 2009 to 2020 the season finale was played at The O2 on the Greenwich Peninsula, a dark indoor court ringed by tiered seats and lit like a stage. Those twelve editions made it one of the best-attended indoor tennis events anywhere.

The 2020 edition was the last one in London. From 2021 the event moved to Turin, and that is where the 2026 edition, November 15–22, is held. A London ticket search for this week points to Italy.

The O2 is still easy to reach for a look at where it all happened:

• Tube: North Greenwich station, Jubilee line
• River: Uber Boat by Thames Clippers to North Greenwich Pier
• Cable car: IFS Cloud Cable Car across the Thames from Royal Victoria

How the eight-player week works

The format packs a lot into eight days. The year’s top eight singles players are split into two round-robin groups of four. Each player meets the other three in his group, and the top two from each group go through to the semi-finals and then Sunday’s final.

Eight doubles teams play the same structure alongside the singles. Most days run two sessions, one in the afternoon and one in the evening, and each session usually has one doubles match and one singles match. The round-robin days give you the most tennis per ticket. The semi-finals and final are the sessions fans compete hardest for.

Getting from London to Turin

Turin is a short hop for London-based fans. Direct flights link London airports with Turin Caselle Airport, which sits north of the city. Fans who prefer the train usually take the Eurostar to Paris, then the high-speed service to Turin Porta Susa through the Alps.

The arena stands in the Santa Rita district, beside the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino, built up for the 2006 Winter Olympics. Visitors usually stay near Porta Nuova or Porta Susa stations and take a tram, bus or taxi south to the venue. In mid-November, evenings in Turin are cold and often damp, so a warm layer helps for the queue outside.

Session tickets and courtside manners

Tickets are sold per session, not for the whole day. An afternoon seat does not let you into the evening session. The ATP publishes ticket links on the tournament’s official site, and buying through that channel avoids the resale listings that spring up around the final weekend.

Inside, indoor tennis has its own rules:

• Seating: ushers hold you at the portal during play and let people in only at changeovers, usually every odd game.
• Noise: silence during points, applause after. Shouting during a rally earns a look from the umpire.
• Bags: the arena searches bags at the entrance, so fans tend to travel light.
• Language: Italian staff and signs, with English widely used at a tournament this international.

The week draws a large travelling crowd, including a strong following from East Asia. Fans with evening tickets often spend the afternoon at the cafés under the Via Roma arcades and head to the arena once the earlier session ends.
