What is the French Open?

The French Open (also known as Roland-Garros) is a major tennis tournament held every year over two weeks in late May and early June. It's the second of the four Grand Slam tournaments, following the Australian Open and preceding Wimbledon and the US Open. The French Open takes place at Stade Roland-Garros in Paris, France.

This tournament was first held in 1891 and is the oldest Grand Slam tournament still played on its original site. It was initially an all-amateur event but became open to professionals in 1968. The Stade Roland-Garros has a clay surface which presents a unique challenge for players.

In 2026, the French Open will take place from 18th May to 9th June. We recommend booking your flights at least 6 months in advance!
