How to get in

AYS Sports Marketing, the agency that created and produces the Taste of Tennis series (event founded by Judi and Penny Lerner; Penny Lerner, CEO / co-founder of AYS Sports Marketing). The New York 2026 edition takes place in the fortnight preceding the US Open.

Paid access only: GA and VIP tickets on sale at tasteoftennis.com as soon as the 2026 date is announced (VIP places include the player meet-and-greets; the 2025 edition was around $515 for a Main Event ticket). Note: the 21 August date and the Aqua New York venue correspond to the 2025 edition (25th anniversary) — at the time of checking, the exact date and venue of the New York 2026 edition had not yet been officially confirmed on the site (New York is indeed listed among the 2026 events, but with no date). To get in without buying: go through the PR operations of the partner brands (sponsor invitations) via AYS Sports Marketing. Sign up to the list / follow @tasteoftennis for the ticket release.

The turnkey stay

Fin août, New York bascule tout entière dans la quinzaine de l'US Open : et c'est le Taste of Tennis qui en donne le coup d'envoi. Le 28 août 2026, la soirée se tient au Flyfish Club, club culinaire privé du Lower East Side, où les plus grands noms de la raquette dînent au coude à coude avec les chefs de Manhattan. Autour de cette soirée se déploie une quinzaine entière : un invitational sur Madison Avenue la veille, puis des watch parties quotidiennes jusqu'au 13 septembre. Trois nuits suffisent à saisir la ville au sommet de sa fièvre.
