WTA Singapore Open 2025 to be held at Kallang Tennis Hub in January

Singapore will see the return of international tennis for the first time since 2019.

The WTA Singapore Open is set to take place at the newly opened Kallang Tennis Hub from 27 January to 2 February 2025. This will be the first international women’s tennis tournament to be held in Singapore since 2019.

Across the two days of qualifying matches (25 and 26 January), and seven days of main-draw play (27 January to 2 February), some of the world’s most talented players will make their mark on centre court at the Kallang Tennis Hub. In all, over 60 matches will be played as the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) players compete for the Singapore Open title.

Tennis fans will enjoy free entry to all the qualifying matches and can secure their seat on centre court when tickets go on sale from today. To ensure that live sporting action remains accessible to everyday patrons, single-day prices start from $8 for concession tickets, while prices for groups of 4 start from $44.

Co-Tournament Directors bring a wealth of experience to the Game 

Leading the tournament as co-tournament directors are Yazed Osman, Group Head of Events & Placemaking and Place Management at Kallang Alive Sport Management, and Laura Ceccarelli, Chief Operations Officer of APG. 

Osman said, “We are thrilled to welcome the return of international women’s tennis with the Singapore Open which will be hosted in Singapore at the Kallang Tennis Hub from 2025 to 2027. This tournament is an invaluable opportunity for us to deepen Singapore’s affinity with the sport and to build our legacy – a legacy underscored by extensive community engagement programmes, which will be a cornerstone of the event.

To further demonstrate our commitment to provide greater accessibility to watch live sport, all fans will enjoy free entry to the qualifying matches.”

Ceccarelli added, “The WTA has had a wonderful history in Singapore, and to be returning with a WTA 250 level event is a dream come true as we are now able to re-engage with the tennis community through a truly accessible event for all. The Kallang Tennis Hub is a new facility, and it is amazing that the first international event will be the Singapore Open. I have so many special memories of the fantastic tennis fans in Singapore, and I am sure that the players will be looking forward to playing in front of all of you.”

WTA Singapore Open logo and tagline revealed as countdown begins

The event logo and tagline have also been revealed as countdown to the tournament begins. Developed by the Official Event Marketing Partner, Havas Play, the Singapore Open logo embodies the energy and dynamism of tennis through the fluid motion of a tennis ball, seamlessly forming the letter “S.” This “S” not only represents Singapore but additionally symbolises the swiftness and agility inherent in the sport.

The composition captures the city’s identity, merging motion with meaning. The event tagline “Meet, Play, Love” comes together fittingly to represent different aspects of the event while still grounded in the idea of community. 

Expect exciting tennis action and more! 

Fans will be treated to an exciting lineup of activities and experiences throughout the tournament. In addition to the Singapore Open, Singapore will host a regional Under-14 (U14) competition for junior players as they aspire to greater heights in their sporting journeys.

This competition, organised by the Singapore Tennis Association, offers juniors the opportunity to watch and learn from professional matches up close, and to also be able to play on the same courts used in the tournament, further enhancing their experience and immersion in the sport. 

Community activities are set to include:

• School outreach programmes
• Meet & Greet sessions with WTA and Team Singapore players
• Team Singapore Learn to Play
• ActiveSG Tennis Academy 

These activities will offer young players a highly coveted opportunity to interact with the sport which will hopefully inspire the next generation of tennis stars. For more information on the tickets, click here.
