Laver Cup 2022, London - Sep 23-25, 2022
LONDON CALLING FOR LAVER CUP IN 2022
September 25, 2020The Laver Cup will be held in London in 2022, with organizers naming The O2 arena as the venue for the event that will take place from September 23-25, 2022.
London, one of the world’s greatest cities, will host the fifth edition of the competition, following Laver Cup 2021 which will be held next September at TD Garden in Boston.
“We’re so excited to be bringing the Laver Cup to London, a city steeped in tennis heritage,” Laver Cup Chairman and CEO of TEAM8 Tony Godsick said.
“The British fans love their tennis and the Laver Cup is like nothing they have seen before.”
“Over one amazing weekend we bring together today’s greatest players as teammates, alongside legends and rivals from previous generations to create a truly unique spectacle that has thrilled fans around the globe.”
“London has always held a special place in my heart and it’s going to be incredible to bring the Laver Cup to one of my favourite cities in the world.”
Roger Federer
“I know the British fans will love the way the Laver Cup brings together the top players in the world while paying respect and recognition to the legends of our game.”
Named in honor of Australian tennis legend Rod Laver, the Laver Cup is played on a dramatic black court that will be constructed within The O2, a 20,000 seat arena. The three-day team competition pits six of the best players from Europe against six of their counterparts from the rest of the World.
Since its debut in Prague in 2017, the Laver Cup has been staged in Chicago in 2018, and Geneva last year. 2022 will mark the third time Team Europe has held the ‘home advantage’.
The O2 has welcomed more than 70 million people to music, sports and entertainment events since opening in 2007. No stranger to tennis, The O2 has been home to the hugely successful ATP World Tour Finals since 2009.
“London’s The O2 is one of the world’s most iconic music and entertainment venues,” Laver Cup CEO Steve Zacks said. “It is a destination unto itself, with spectacular scale, design, technology and amenities. It is the perfect setting for the Laver Cup to create an unrivalled fan experience.”
Gael Caselli, VP of Sport, AEG Europe commented “We are delighted The O2 will host the Laver Cup in 2022 and look forward to welcoming the tournament to London and bringing the excitement of tennis to the British fans. The O2 has held a multitude of world class sporting events since opening in 2007 and will continue this tradition with the Laver Cup, which will no doubt be a must see event in the sporting calendar.”
The city of London has also thrown its support behind the event. Mayor Sadiq Khan said “It is a great honour for London to play host to the Laver Cup in 2022.”
“Londoners are fanatical about sport and have missed the thrill of live events during the pandemic. The capital is proud to have hosted major international sporting events over the years. To add the prestigious Laver Cup to our portfolio is incredibly exciting and we can’t wait to welcome the event to town.”
Ticket information will be released in due course with fans encouraged to register their interest in the event on LaverCup.com.

Just saw a tweet on the forum with Novak saying his agent is following up on LC or something of that sort. I believe he was on once and was not a team player.

I didn’t hear that info! Let’s be careful about that...and then Roger was very enthusiastic when Djokovic confirmed his presence. Roger knows that Djokovic did not vaccinate!
