Many people find it hard to get their hands on Wimbledon tickets, however one woman has revealed how she bagged a seat on the Wimbledon Centre Court by turning up to the venue without a ticket10:04, 03 Jul 2026The 2026 Wimbledon Championships are currently underway at the All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC), running from Monday, June 29 until Sunday, July 12 2026. The tournament is currently on Day 5, featuring highly anticipated third-round matchups. The event has seen tennis icon Serena Williams make a highly publicised return to the grass courts, however she suffered an early exit – losing her first-round match to American teenager Maya Joint.‌Defending the women's singles is champion Iga Świątek, who has moved comfortably into the third round, where she is scheduled to face Alex Eala on Saturday (July 4). Meanwhile, seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic is currently the 7th seed and has advanced to the third round.‌Grounds passes are currently on sale for £33, giving fans access to unreserved seating on the outer courts. However, they are strictly sold on the day on a first-come, first-served basis through the famous, physical Wimbledon Queue.‌As well as the outer courts however, one woman has revealed how she bagged a seat on the Wimbledon Centre Court by turning up to the venue without a ticket.Alice Elizabeth, who is known on Instagram as @aliceelizabethluxury, shares tips with her 1,900 followers on the app about 'how to get luxury for less'.‌In one of her latest posts, she explained how she got the chance to sit on the Wimbledon Centre Court.Alice Elizabeth said she turned up at the venue on Tuesday (June 30) at 2am to get in for the Wednesday (July 1). This is when she got her first queue card.The next morning, at 5am, she said she told the stewards she was staying for the following day and was moved into a new queue and issued a different queue card.‌She said that there are "loads of toilet cubicles" and shops such as a Sainsbury's and Gail's Bakery just up the road.Content cannot be displayed without consentHowever, she warned not to leave your tent for too long, as if you're away for more than 30-60 minutes, the stewards will come round and mark your tent saying you've been away.‌"If they come back and you're still away, they could move your tent out of the queue," she warned.At 5am the next morning, Alice Elizabeth said you're going to want to pack your tent away.She said she bought a £14.99 pass to a Pure Gym nearby so that she could have a proper shower and do her hair before heading into the venue.‌Alice Elizabeth then dropped her luggage in the storage section at the venue, which costs £5, collected her wristband after "queuing for another 3-4 hours", and then got her Centre Court ticket for Block 102, Row E, which was five rows from the front.This cost her £120, and she said the money was well worth it as she got to watch some "incredible matches", including Yannick Sinner/Novak Djokovic and Mirra Andreeva."I honestly had one of the best sporting days I've ever had," she exclaimed.‌Alice Elizabeth said another thing she loved is that you can do this on your own, which she did."Everyone is so friendly, and you'll almost certainly end up chatting to people around you," she said.She also said if you do it each year that you "end up seeing the same people".‌Following up in the caption, she wrote: "Wimbledon: I’m all about luxury for less... even at events."People always think you need hospitality, an influencer invite or to spend thousands to get amazing seats, but you really don’t. With a bit of planning (and a tent!), it’s completely possible.‌"I’ve queued and camped at Wimbledon for years, and this year it was all about one thing... as always. Watching Novak Djokovic on Centre Court."She added: "Yes, I camped. Yes, I queued for two nights. And yes... I’d do it all again."I ended up five rows from the front on Centre Court for £120 and watched some incredible tennis. It was genuinely one of my favourite Wimbledon experiences ever."‌People were loving the advice, with the post racking up more than 3,600 likes.Many had some questions too, as one person asked: "Was it ok going on your own? Did people look after your stuff when you had to visit the bathroom? I’d love to try the queue."Alice Elizabeth replied: "Yes, people are lovely! We all keep and eye out for each other stuff, it’s completely fine you make friends introduce yourself to your neighbours, so many people by themselves! I even gave one person my laptop to charge it."‌Another also probed what her queue number was, with her replying that it was 96 on the second day, explaining that the first 500 people get the option of Centre Court tickets.Someone else exclaimed: "The dedication to Novak Djokovic is unmatched, 10/10 effort."However, not everyone was impressed, as one person wrote: "The fact that this is how people need to contend for tickets in 2026 feels really dystopian."Article continues belowWould you camp out two days for Wimbledon tickets or have you done it before?
