The 2025 Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships are set to take place from Feb.16, 2025, to March 1, 2025, at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium in Al Garhoud.

The WTA and ATP championships will run back-to-back, with the WTA week celebrating the 25th anniversary of the women’s tournament, followed by the men’s event, now in its 33rd year.

The player line-up for the 2025 Championships will be announced soon and promises to be as star-studded as ever.

Now that the women’s tournament has a permanent WTA 1000 status, Dubai residents and visitors can expect to catch the top 10 WTA players, including World No.1 Iga Swiatek, three-time Grand Slam winner Aryna Sabalenka, 20-year-old American prodigy Coco Gauff, and reigning Dubai champion Jasmine Paolini.

Ramesh Cidambi, Managing Director of Dubai Duty Free and Chairman of the tournament’s Organising Committee, said he is looking forward to welcoming some of the world’s best players to the city.

“Dubai has welcomed the top men’s and women’s tennis players for many years, and I expect that to continue,” Cidambi said.

“Next year marks the 25th running of our WTA week, which is a great milestone. Putting our tennis tickets on sale earlier than usual gives fans the chance to plan their purchase. We are looking forward to another great two weeks of tennis.”

Tournament Director Salah Tahlak, who is also the Deputy Managing Director of Dubai Duty Free, added: “The rich tradition of this iconic event speaks for itself.

To celebrate 25 years of the women’s tournament is truly historic and speaks volumes of the organisation, professionalism, and dedication of all involved. Whether you’re a long-time supporter or a first-time attendee, fans can be sure to experience a world-class event. We look forward to seeing everyone courtside.”

The Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships is owned and organised by Dubai Duty Free and held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
