Good to know

The public ballot for 2027 runs 1 Sept 2026 to 14 Sept 2026 per the AELTC's Help Centre, a shorter window than the 2026 cycle's, which ran 2 to 21 September 2025 per the same Help Centre. 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.
