Emirates is returning to the courts of Roland-Garros again this year. Throughout the two-week tournament, it brings together world-class tennis with French culture, gastronomy and its own unique take on premium hospitality. Visitors can look forward not only to top-class sporting performances, but also to a comprehensive experience that goes beyond the usual tournament amenities.
Grand Slam-level hospitality
Emirates will once again open two exclusive zones – the Emirates Lounge in the Hospitality Village and the Salon Philippe-Chatrier – offering a unique view directly onto the on-court action. It is here that the world of top-level sport meets the comfort and service for which the brand is renowned.
Thanks to a broad sponsorship portfolio across sports – from tennis and football to golf and cycling – legends of world sport regularly appear in the lounge areas. Guests thus have the opportunity to experience the tournament not only from the front row, but also in the presence of iconic names.
From the app to the aircraft cabin
The Roland-Garros experience continues this year in both digital and in-flight environments. In the official tournament app, fans can play an interactive Emirates game in which they virtually pilot a plane over Australian landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House or Uluru. The best players can win tickets to next year’s tournament.
On flights between Dubai and France, a tournament-inspired themed service is running until 7 June – from special menus to tennis-themed desserts. The atmosphere is enhanced by in-cabin details and live match broadcasts via the ice system.
Emirates is also getting involved in community activities. As part of Yannick Noah Day, it will give young players from the Attrap’la Balle programme a behind-the-scenes look at the tournament, the chance to meet tennis legends, and even the opportunity to take part in the ceremonial draw during the Trophée des Légendes matches.
Once again this year, Roland-Garros confirms that it is not just about tennis, but a comprehensive cultural and gastronomic experience where sport naturally blends with lifestyle.
