Spectators - Visitor Information
Security
This year, once again, comprehensive security measures will be in place
at The Championships. These will include extensive searches on entry to the
grounds and the show courts, and limitations on the number, size and type of bags that may be brought into the Grounds. |
| |
| Security searches |
ONE BAG ONLY PER PERSON WILL BE ALLOWED.
This bag must measure no more than 18" x 12" x 12" (45cm x 30cm x 30cm). Furthermore, NO
HARD-SIDED ITEMS (e.g. picnic hampers, coolboxes or briefcases) OF ANY SIZE WILL BE ALLOWED
INTO THE GROUNDS.
Left luggage facilities will again be provided outside the Grounds for items exceeding these criteria and for any other items you do not need during the day.
Every effort will be made to speed your progress through the search procedures; however, this process depends on the requirements of the Metropolitan Police and you are strongly advised to arrive as early as possible after the Grounds open at 10.30am.
We know that these procedures may be inconvenient but we are equally sure that you will understand the need to protect the safety and security of all our visitors.
