Ticketless Wimbledon fans have been told not to travel to the All England Club as demands for tickets well superceeds the availability. The first supporters started queueing at 10am on Friday morning and thousands of others joined them over the weekeend.
However, at 7.30am on Monday morning, Wimbledon moved to advise those not already in the queue to avoid travelling. A statement on the Wimbledon website said: “Please be aware that the Queue for Day 1 – Monday 30th June – is very busy.
“And to avoid disappointment we strongly advise you not to travel to the Grounds today. Please note there is hot weather forecast for Monday and Tuesday.
“In both The Queue and the Grounds there may be periods where shade is not available.
“Please plan appropriately, including bringing water, suncream and a hat. Water refill points are available in the Queue and around the Grounds.”
