    Just a tip for next time, the tickets for the finals normally sell out about 2 months or so before the event, although you've probably worked that out by now!

    Me and 3 freiends of mine are going to watch the finals on Sunday at the NIA. But the best thing is that we've got front row seats, inline with the centre of the court. I'm sure the signatures and handskakes will be rolling in LOL.

    How do we buy tickets with student discount? I am planning to get two weekend tickets (ie Friday to Sunday), it should be less than 30 pounds for each ticket. But I cant go to Birmingham before the start of the match, is there any suggestions? Or is there anyone kind enough to buy for me?

    I think you've missed the boat. The finals are a sell-out according to some of the posts above!

    tstan.. they are all sold out.

    finals and semis...

    semis have a few seats left.. i mean about 8 seats. lol.. but they are very very bad seats.. right in the corners, far away from the court.

    finals 100% sold out. semis 99.9%

    quarter finals are good tho.. im going to quarters.

    I booked my tickets months ago for quarter, semi and finals days. I am in block 3, possibly in the front row, or very near to it I can't quite remember.

    I am starting to get really excited about it! :)

    I am in block 4, row 1, seat 132/3/4 (for the whole weekend :D)... anyone know if the view from there is good? Two years ago we were in the same block but further up and view was OK, but not sure what it would be like so close to the courts.

    I don't have the tickets on me, but looking at the email:

    Ticket Details:
    Block 04 (Lower): A 132-134(3) < A denotes the row number

    ahhh k cheers im about 10 rows back then each day should be ok as we're slightly to the side as well. Anyway of telling whether your seats are nearer the centre or not is it just luck?
