Pack your racket and get ready for an ace four-day experience of New York City and the US Open.
Upon arrival in Manhattan, you’ll check into the Lotte New York Palace — a 5-star hotel that combines old-world elegance with modern-day style. From this luxurious home base, you’ll explore the city in grand fashion.
Your first day includes a private wardrobing session at the Ralph Lauren Mansion, complete with a gift card to tailor your perfect look. That evening, you’ll dine in style at the iconic Polo Bar.
Your court is reserved for the festive opening day of the US Open. You’ll start the morning in Forest Hills with a private tennis clinic and round-robin play with some of the sport’s greatest legends — past participants in this once-in-a-lifetime experience have included icons like Billie Jean King, John McEnroe, Andre Agassi, and Chris Evert. They’ll be happy to talk tennis, take photos, and sign autographs. You'll then be transported to Arthur Ashe Stadium, where — as guests of JPMorgan Wealth Management — you'll enjoy access to the J.P. Morgan Suite for first-round matches, an exclusive vantage point amid the excitement of New York’s premier tennis event. The evening concludes with an elegant dinner back in the city.
The following day you’ll go behind the scenes at Rockefeller Center with a day-in-the-life NBC newsroom experience, followed by lunch with an NBC producer at the Rainbow Room. Access to a future taping of Late Night with Seth Meyers — a behind-the-scenes look at late-night comedy — can be scheduled at your convenience. A private dinner at the members-only Maxime’s Club, hosted by Gala Chairs Mary Beth and David Shimmon, brings your trip to a winning finish.
