So you want to watch Wimbledon 2025 but you missed/failed at the ballot — and you're not spending the whole tournament glued to a TV screen indoors, while the sun's a-shinin' (hopefully!) and there's Pimm's for a-drinkin'.
Luckily, plenty of London establishments are erecting a giant screen — and possibly a deckchair or two — so you can catch the Wimbledon 2025 action al fresco.
FYI, the Wimbledon 2025 dates are 30 June-13 July. Stick it in your diary. It overlaps with the UEFA Women's Euros 2025 tournament, so better get scheduling your screenings now...
