Security Procedures at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center
Safety is one of our highest priorities at the US Open, and we will continue to take every reasonable step to ensure the safety of everyone entering the USTA National Tennis Center gates. We will once again be implementing several important security measures in conjunction with Local, State, and Federal law enforcement agencies:
- 1. We encourage you to arrive early to avoid delays and help to speed the entry of all spectators.
- All fans will go through a screening process before passing through the USTA National Tennis Center entry gates.
- There will be a limit of one bag per person admitted onto the grounds.
- All bags are subject to search, must be a single compartment and cannot be larger than 12"Wx12"Hx16"L.
- There will be no bag storage on the grounds. For a nominal charge, there is a bag storage facility outside the grounds.
- Speed lines for those fans without bags will be available at all gates.
- The following items are prohibited and MAY NOT be brought onto the premises:
- sealed packages of any kind;
- briefcases;
- ALL knapsacks/ALL backpacks ;
- hard coolers or like containers;
- glass bottles or cans;
- aerosol cans or noisemaking devices;
- alcoholic beverages;
- commercial video cameras or recording devices;
