US Open breaks attendance records

The 2022 US Open broke the event’s all-time attendance records, for both the two weeks of the main draw and the main draw and Fan Week combined.

The two-week main draw attendance was 776,120, surpassing the previous record of 737,872, set in 2019.

The full, three-week attendance, including Fan Week, was 888,044, eclipsing the previous record of 853,227, also set in 2019.

The 2022 US Open also marked the first time in Arthur Ashe Stadium’s 25 years that every session in the stadium, now with a capacity of 23,859, was sold out.
