Good to know

opens_at/closes_at are ESTIMATES carried from the 2026 cycle. Official Wimbledon Help Centre text (retrieved via search index; the page blocks bots) states the 2026 ballot 'opened on Tuesday 2 September 2025 and closed at 23:59 BST on Sunday 21 September 2025'. Caveat: the research brief's date of 2025-09-11 matches the URL date of an official wimbledon.com news article ('Wimbledon Public Ballot Opens for 2026', 2025-09-11), and Time Out (2025-09-03) plus The Stadium Insiders (2025-09-04) reported the ballot open in early September with an initially announced deadline of 2025-09-16; the help-centre record of 2025-09-02 to 2025-09-21 is treated as authoritative. Ballot is random, supervised, and the only free public route to reserved seats besides The Queue (on the day) and debentures (paid). A separate free Wheelchair Ballot runs on a similar September window for accessible seating. See separate record for the LTA membership ballot.
