Able to host more than 16,000 spectators, the Indian Wells Tennis Garden is the world’s second largest outdoor tennis stadium and hosts the annual BNP Paribas Open and junior and adult competitions for the United States Tennis Association. Outside of these events, the Indian Wells Tennis Garden is open to the public for organised and recreational matches and coaching clinics.
Time your visit for the BNP Paribas Open to see some of the world’s best tennis players go head-to-head during their ATP World Tour or WTA Tour. You can also sign up for private lessons, attend clinics focusing on doubles, mixers and fast-paced drilling or play Pickleball.
Along with an on-site fitness centre with a coaching staff, the Indian Wells Tennis Garden has junior tennis programs and professional tennis players on its staff. Music lovers can visit during the Indian Wells Music Festival, which showcases blues, rock, jazz and country musicians, including GRAMMY-award-winning artists.
