Italy’s ATP Finals agreement renewed for an additional five years, lasting until 2030

Turin, Italy is set to host the ATP Finals until 2030, following an announcement made by ATP chairman Andrea Gaudenzi on Sunday.

The prior agreement for the tournament was set to expire next year, but British tennis was thrilled by the news that it would remain in Italy for an additional five years. This announcement was made during the trophy presentation, where Italian player Jannik Sinner emerged victorious over Taylor Fritz in this year’s championship, which showcases the top eight competitors in men’s tennis.

Since 2021, Turin has been the venue for the ATP Finals after a successful 12-year stint in London. The decision to maintain the event in Italy has generated excitement among fans and players alike, underlining the country’s significance in the world of tennis.

While Gaudenzi confirmed the extension to 2030, he did not clarify whether the event would continue to take place in Turin or potentially shift to Milan. The city of Milan is currently constructing a new arena intended for ice hockey as part of the upcoming 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics.

This new Milan arena is expected to have a seating capacity exceeding 16,000 for tennis events, which would create an opportunity for more spectators compared to the Inalpi arena in Turin, which accommodates around 12,000 fans. The growing interest in tennis and its events in Italy reflects the country’s vibrant sporting culture and commitment to hosting major international competitions.
