Dubbed “The Wimbledon Court in Central Park,” the four-day event runs June 26–29, transforming the rink into a grass court inspired by the All England Club. The experience will feature free tennis clinics, exhibition doubles matches with tennis icons, and a lineup of interactive, tennis-themed activations.
