How to Reserve a Table in the Wimbledon Champions' Room
by Ed C

The Champions' Room is one of Wimbledon's most sought-after debenture dining experiences, and reservations must be arranged in advance by a registered Centre Court debenture holder.
Demand regularly exceeds availability, so Champions' Room requests may be allocated by ballot. Buying an individual Centre Court debenture ticket does not allow you to make the reservation directly yourself.
This guide explains who can book, how the reservation process works and what to check if a Champions' Room table is being arranged with your Wimbledon tickets.
What Is the Wimbledon Champions' Room?
The Champions' Room is a fine-dining restaurant reserved for guests with Centre Court debenture tickets.
A reservation provides a table for the day, allowing guests to combine dining with the Centre Court programme.
Under Wimbledon's published arrangements, the experience includes:
- a table reserved for the day;
- welcome drinks;
- a four-course lunch;
- traditional Wimbledon afternoon tea;
- selected wines; and
- a complimentary bar.
The detailed menu, drinks and package arrangements can change between Championships, so check the current reservation information for your visit.
For the full range of debenture dining options, see our Wimbledon debenture bars and restaurants guide.
Who Can Reserve a Champions' Room Table?
Advance reservations can only be made by a registered Centre Court debenture holder.
Buying an individual day's Centre Court debenture ticket does not make you the registered holder of the underlying five-year debenture and does not give you direct access to the holder's restaurant-booking facility.
If you have bought tickets from a debenture holder and want to dine in the Champions' Room, the holder must normally arrange the reservation on your behalf.
How Does the Champions' Room Booking Process Work?
The detailed process is set by Wimbledon for each Championships, but the practical sequence is generally:
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Reservations open | Registered Centre Court debenture holders are invited to request fine-dining reservations. |
| Holder submits request | The debenture holder requests a Champions' Room table for the relevant Championship date. |
| Demand is assessed | If requests exceed capacity, Champions' Room reservations may be allocated by ballot. |
| Reservation confirmed | The successful holder completes the booking and supplies any required guest details. |
| Guests attend | The diners use the reservation together with valid Centre Court debenture tickets for that day. |
The timetable and exact allocation process can change each year. Registered holders should follow Wimbledon's current debenture communications rather than relying on dates from a previous Championships.
Is There a Champions' Room Ballot?
There can be. Demand for the Champions' Room often exceeds the number of available tables, so reservations may be allocated by ballot.
This is different from the Wimbledon Public Ballot for tennis tickets. The Champions' Room process concerns a restaurant reservation and is available only through registered Centre Court debenture holders.
A ballot allocation is therefore not guaranteed simply because you have Centre Court debenture tickets.

Does a Centre Court Debenture Ticket Include the Champions' Room?
No. A Centre Court debenture ticket gives access to the Centre Court debenture areas, but it does not automatically include a Champions' Room reservation.
The restaurant booking is a separate prepaid arrangement.
The food and drink included in the Champions' Room form part of that dining reservation, not the standard debenture ticket.
See what is included with a Wimbledon debenture ticket for the distinction between standard ticket benefits and separately booked extras.
Can I Buy Tickets With a Champions' Room Reservation Included?
Yes, occasionally. A debenture holder with a confirmed reservation may offer their Centre Court tickets together with the prepaid Champions' Room booking.
Where a Green & Purple listing includes a restaurant reservation, this should be stated separately from the ticket details.
Before purchasing, check:
- that the Champions' Room reservation is expressly included;
- the booking date;
- the number of diners covered;
- whether the dining package has been fully paid for; and
- any booking-name or arrival instructions.
A higher listing price may reflect the value of the restaurant reservation as well as the Centre Court seats.
Who Can Dine in the Champions' Room?
Everyone using the reservation must hold a valid Centre Court debenture ticket for the same day.
A No.1 Court debenture ticket does not by itself provide access to the Champions' Room.
If you are considering a listing that includes dining, make sure the restaurant booking and Centre Court tickets apply to the same date and number of guests.
How Many People Can Sit at a Champions' Room Table?
Current published specialist guidance describes Champions' Room reservations for tables of up to eight guests.
Because restaurant arrangements can change, confirm the current table-size limit when the reservation is requested.
Every diner still requires the appropriate Centre Court debenture ticket for that day.
When Can Champions' Room Reservations Be Made?
The reservation timetable is set for each Championships.
Fine-dining reservations have historically opened to debenture holders in the spring, but the exact dates can change.
If a Champions' Room reservation is important to you, raise it with the debenture holder or ticket seller well in advance rather than waiting until shortly before The Championships.
What if I Cannot Get a Champions' Room Reservation?
The Champions' Room is only one of several debenture dining options.
Other advance-bookable restaurants include The Renshaw and Courtside Restaurant, while a number of casual restaurants, bars and lounges do not require the same reservation process.
See our debenture restaurants and bars guide to compare the alternatives.
Can I Get a Champions' Room Table at the Last Minute?
Sometimes cancellations or other availability may arise close to or on the day, but this should not be relied upon.
Wimbledon's published debenture guidance advises visitors to ask at the Debenture Information Point beside the Fred Perry statue about any last-minute fine-dining availability.
Treat this as an opportunity to enquire rather than an alternative booking method.
Where Is the Champions' Room?
The Champions' Room is within the Centre Court debenture complex.
Wimbledon's published guidance directs guests to the Centre Court debenture entrance between Courts 15 and 16.
The restaurant currently opens from 10.30am. Guests should allow sufficient time to enjoy the dining experience without missing the Centre Court matches they particularly want to watch.
Before Buying Tickets With a Champions' Room Reservation
Check the restaurant reservation separately from the tennis tickets.
Make sure you understand:
- which Centre Court tickets are included;
- how many diners the booking covers;
- whether the restaurant has already been paid for;
- the booking name or reference;
- what is included in the dining package; and
- whether any further action is required before attending.
If you are buying through Green & Purple and a listing includes a Champions' Room reservation, contact us if any of the dining details are unclear before completing your purchase.
Start Planning Your Centre Court Day
Centre Court debenture tickets provide the seating for your tennis day. If the Champions' Room is part of your plans, remember that dining requires a separate confirmed reservation and is not automatically included with your tickets.
