Tickets go on sale for the NZ Festival of Tennis

Tickets go on sale for the NZ Festival of Tennis as the ASB Classic announces Monica Puig

Tennis Auckland is pleased to announce that tickets go on sale TODAY for the Heineken Open and ASB Classic, as part of the inaugural NZ Festival of Tennis taking place from December 28, 2013 – January 11, 2014.

Tennis fans will be excited to see the move from all-day passes to day and night sessions. Tickets will be sold individually for the two sessions, meaning guests can celebrate the spectacle and excitement of the tournaments when it suits them – whether it’s a day off work, or a night out with friends. Furthermore, the introduction of the Ground Pass ($15) will appeal to those who are after a day out at the Heineken Baseline live site, catching all the action on a giant screen, complete with summer drinks and delicious food offerings.


With a plethora of top players already under its belt, Tennis Auckland announces today that Puerto Rican player Mónica Puig will play at this season’s ASB Classic – joining Ana Ivanovic and Laura Robson, who were announced earlier this month.

A rising star in the women’s game, Puig has made huge headway in 2013 after defeating world number 11 Nadia Petrova in three sets at this year’s French Open, and knocked out world number 5 and 5th seed, Sara Errani at Wimbledon.

“We are really happy to have secured another player for the women’s tournament – as well as top seed players, we pride ourselves on hosting future stars at the tournaments and look forward to welcoming Monica in December,” says Tournament Director, Karl Budge.

Tickets are available NOW via Ticketek
