The US Open has commenced in Flushing, Queens, bringing the 2026 tennis season to a spectacular close. Running through September 13, the Grand Slam is a spectacle on and off the court: the competition is fierce, a myriad of brands are launching their own tenniscore collaborations, and celebrities are already flocking to the stands of Arthur Ashe Stadium. (You might even catch them with a signature Honey Deuce cocktail in hand.)
This year, tennis fans can expect to see stars like Coco Gauff, Jannik Sinner, and Aryna Sabalenka at the net. And some lucky early viewers got to watch tennis champions Serena Williams and Carlos Alcaraz team up for mixed doubles before getting knocked out in the quarterfinals. Plus, Roger Federer will be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame—all the more reason for A-listers to gather at the tournament.
While tickets to all the games are a hot commodity, things definitely get more exciting closer to the finals. In 2024, for example, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce attended the men’s final between Sinner and Taylor Fritz with their friends, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes.

No matter which game they attend, the stars tend to use the outing as an opportunity to show off their end-of-summer fashion. Last year, Tina Knowles, Spike Lee, Victor Cruz, and Chelsea Handler were all present on opening day in breezy layered looks. Lindsay Lohan, Chase Sui Wonders, Rami Malek, Christian Slater, and Kendall Jenner also made appearances. Who will we catch courtside this year?
