Wimbledon

SW19, SW20
Nearest Tube: Wimbledon


All across the world, Wimbledon means one thing - tennis. For this is home to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, where the world lawn tennis championships have taken place since 1877.

Getting tickets to the tournament (held in the last week of June and first week of July each year) is easier said than done, and you may as well forget about even trying to get a seat on centre court. Your best bet is to arrive early, expect to queue for ages, and wait for a ticket to one of the outer courts.

Outside of the tennis season you can always visit the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum. And aside from tennis, there is also Wimbledon Common, home to the children's TV characters the Wombles.
