The Club earns its position in the 2026 lineup by solving a problem the other hospitality venues don't fully address: how to spend time inside Arthur Ashe Stadium rather than on the surrounding grounds, with the full hospitality experience available the moment you step out of your seat. Every other US Open Premier club sits outside the stadium building. The Club sits within it, on the east side, at what the USTA describes as the threshold between stadium and grounds. In practical terms, that means the walk between your courtside seat and your hospitality space is measured in steps rather than minutes.

The food format here is a sprawling buffet rather than the station-based rotating menu at The Overlook. Local and seasonal themed chef's tables anchor the spread, with carving stations, action stations, and snack tables running alongside signature desserts. The dedicated chef service means there are attended stations rather than an unattended self-serve spread. Grab-and-go options let you take food and drinks back to your courtside seat without losing your place or your momentum — a practical detail that matters across a long match day.

The bar is fully inclusive: beer, wine, spirits, and the full range of US Open specialty cocktails, with an elegant passed-drinks service during the cocktail hour at the start of each session. There are no separate charges for premium drinks. The no-reservations policy across the dining area means you can come and go between set breaks, changeovers, or whenever a lull in play suggests a detour — the club operates as a continuous resource for the session rather than a fixed dining appointment.

The courtside bowl seats attached to The Club sit in the newly expanded 2026 courtside section on the east side of Arthur Ashe Stadium. The east-side baseline position offers a clean view across the full court with the Manhattan skyline visible beyond the open end of the stadium on clear days — one of the more distinctive sightlines in Grand Slam tennis. For night sessions specifically, when the Ashe roof is open and the floodlights illuminate the blue hardcourt, the east-side courtside bowl is among the best seats in tennis anywhere.

The Club is new for 2026 and available across the full tournament. Full-tournament series packages exist alongside individual session bookings, making it viable for those who want a consistent base across multiple rounds rather than choosing sessions individually.
