ASB Classic
ASB Classic takes place Jan 4 - 16, 2027 (women's week then men's week) in Auckland, New Zealand. The dress code is Smart-casual summer: sundresses, chinos, light layers. Hospitality and lawn areas are relaxed; sun protection helps for day sessions. Typical cost ranges from 250 to 1400 EUR per person.
New Zealand's premier tennis tournament, an Australian Open warm-up in central Auckland running back-to-back women's and men's weeks and drawing genuine top-tier names. A redevelopment has added a roof to the stadium, but the capacity stays small enough that seats remain remarkably close to the court. Champagne lawn and hospitality options give it a social dimension without pushing prices out of reach.

How to attend
Open to the public. Ground and reserved-seat tickets sell through the official site and its Flicket platform once released in spring; ground passes are the cheapest way in. Corporate and champagne-lawn hospitality packages are sold separately. The two weeks are ticketed individually, so choose the WTA or ATP draw. The arena is in Parnell, a 15 minute walk from central Auckland.
Insider tip
The champagne lawn is the local move: cheaper than corporate hospitality, close to the court, and the place the Auckland crowd actually spends the afternoon.
