Around 1,000 visitors under the age of 15 were able to attend the tournament free of charge with an accompanying adult – and were treated to a lively program packed with activities.

From the Art Shot Station and serve speed challenges to the mini court and creative photo walls, kids had the opportunity to test their skills, collect stamps, and pick up a surprise gift at the Erste Bank booth. The highlight of the day was the Kids’ Press Conference with tour professional Daniel Altmaier – a special moment connecting the next generation with their tennis idols.

With color, energy, and plenty of enthusiasm, the Next Gen Day once again showed that tennis in Vienna is about more than just competition – it’s about community, inspiration, and unforgettable experiences for the stars of tomorrow.
