From the grandstands, accessed by the panoramic walkways, you will enjoy a breathtaking view of the legendary court and its incomparable clay, as well as the Suzanne-Lenglen court and the magnificent Paris backdrop.
Your eyes will be drawn to the roof made of retractable wings, a tribute to the national hero that the stadium is named after. The guided tour is also a great opportunity to learn more about the history of the Roland-Garros tournament’s winners, from the four Musketeers to today's champions.
Like a VIP, you will also be able to step into the presidential tribune and admire the Roland-Garros tournament’s legendary cups.

While the Roland-Garros stadium is inseparable from the tournament which resonates effervescently through the whole of Paris every spring, this guided tour also shows you what happens throughout the year at the stadium, and there's more than a few surprises.
