The experience

Be guided through the infamous back halls of Rod Laver Arena, as Tennis Australia concierge show you the way to the Green Room suite, an area usually reserved for players and officials, where you will enjoy morning tea and refreshments including French Champagne, international beer and premium wines.

You may just brush shoulders with sporting royalty as you make your way to your Rod Laver Arena Centre Court Category 1 seats, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled. After enjoying all the action of the day’s first match from your prime position, you will be whisked back to the Green Room for lunch where you will be joined by one of Australia’s Tennis legends as our very special guest.

Welcome two-time US Open Champion Patrick Rafter, who is looking forward to sharing anecdotes, insights and highlights from his illustrious career on and off the court, providing you with a wonderful opportunity to engage and converse with the Australian superstar. Of course, like all Exclusives by ANZ special events, our professional photographer will be on hand to ensure these special moments are captured.

Before making your way out to Centre Court for the next match of the afternoon, you will be joined by another guest, in way of Tennis Australia’s Media Production Manager. You will receive an official briefing, before being invited to stand on court for the ‘player walk on’ as opponents enter the arena, and take their place on Centre Court for the next match.

This incredible opportunity is available exclusively to ANZ Black cardholders, and places are strictly limited.
