The membrane structure of Wimbledon No. 1 opens and closes the roof

On May 19, 2019, Wimbledon unveiled the £70 million roof for Court One, which took five years (two years of design and preparation, three years of construction).

The new roof on Court One can be closed in less than 10 minutes. In another 20 to 30 minutes, the air conditioning system in the arena can adjust the environment to the type suitable for indoor games. The shape of the roof has also been carefully designed to allow for maximum natural light and grass growth.
