Last updated:

Guadalajara is once again hosting elite women's tennis

Every September, Guadalajara becomes one of the most important stops on the WTA calendar in Latin America. In 2026, the Guadalajara Open Akron presented by Santander returns September 13-19 to the Complejo Panamericano de Tenis in Zapopan, and at Luvory Luxury Toilets we're already preparing for our third consecutive year at the tournament — following the 2024 and 2025 editions.

This time, beyond telling you why the tournament matters, we want to leave you with a complete guide: dates, venue, confirmed players, entertainment, and everything you need to know if you're going to experience the WTA 500 up close.

Dates and venue for the Guadalajara Open Akron 2026

The tournament runs Sunday, September 13 through Saturday, September 19, 2026, with qualifying rounds kicking off the first few days and the main draw unfolding all week through to the grand final.

The venue is the Centro Panamericano de Tenis de Guadalajara — also known as the Mouratoglou Tennis Center, following the partnership with renowned French coach Patrick Mouratoglou's academy — located at:

Av. Ecónomos 6600, La Estancia, 45030 Zapopan, Jalisco.

The venue has established itself as one of Mexico's most modern tennis facilities, with professional-grade courts, hospitality areas, and capacity for thousands of fans each day.

Tickets

Tickets for the 2026 Guadalajara Open Akron are available through Boletomóvil. As in previous editions, buying early is recommended — quarterfinal, semifinal and final sessions tend to sell out before tournament week.

A WTA 500 tournament — and one of the strongest on tour

The Guadalajara Open Akron is a WTA 500 category event, one of the highest tiers on the women's professional circuit, just below the WTA 1000s and the four Grand Slams. Alongside stops in Puerto Vallarta, San Luis Potosí and Mérida, it positions Mexico as one of the countries with the strongest WTA circuit presence in Latin America.

Confirmed players for 2026

The 2026 lineup already shapes up to be a high-caliber draw:

  • Iva Jovic (USA) — defending champion, who won her first WTA title right here in Guadalajara in 2025 and returns to defend her crown on the court where her championship story began
  • Anna Kalinskaya (Russia) — one of the most complete, rising players in the WTA rankings
  • Camila Osorio (Colombia) — a South American standout and one of the local crowd's favorites, who has backed her in previous editions
  • Marta Kostyuk (Ukraine) — Wimbledon semifinalist and one of the tour's most solid players
  • A Roland Garros finalist, adding to a world-class field
  • center court at the Complejo Panamericano de Tenis in Guadalajara during the WTA 500

    With this level of competition, the 2026 Guadalajara Open Akron promises to match — or exceed — the intensity of previous editions, when Iva Jovic was crowned champion against Emiliana Arango in a final that brought the Panamericano stands to their feet.

    Not just tennis: Mau y Ricky in concert

    One of this edition's big additions is off-court entertainment. Duo Mau y Ricky will perform in concert during tournament week, adding a musical dimension to the Guadalajara Open Akron experience that will draw tennis fans and general audiences alike.

    This combination of elite sport and live entertainment confirms a trend already seen in 2024 and 2025: the Guadalajara Open has stopped being just a tournament and become a multi-day, all-around event, with thousands of people moving through the complex between tennis sessions, hospitality areas and brand activations.

    Luvory returns for a third consecutive year

    At Luvory Luxury Toilets we were present at the 2024 and 2025 editions of the Guadalajara Open Akron, providing premium sanitary solutions for players, coaching staff, accredited press and thousands of fans throughout tournament week. For 2026, we're back with the same mission: making sure restroom infrastructure lives up to a WTA 500 event.

    What we deploy at a tournament of this caliber

    VIP toilets and presidential toilets

    For player areas, technical staff and hospitality zones, where every detail — from finish to constant cleaning — is part of the tournament's professional experience.

    Premium trailers (Royal, Elite and Prestige)

    For the highest fan-traffic areas, with multiple stalls per unit, ideal for the constant flow of spectators between match sessions.

    Continuous maintenance all week

    A seven-day tournament can't afford restrooms that degrade with use. Our team stays on-site, checking and restocking every unit so Saturday's final session gets the same quality as Sunday's first one.

    Trained staff

    With the coordination needed to operate at a professional event of this caliber, where restroom logistics work in sync with the tournament and Panamericano complex's own organization.

    Mexican tennis keeps growing — and so does the infrastructure

    The fact that Guadalajara welcomes Top 100 players, a defending champion, Grand Slam semifinalists, and now a live concert too, year after year, confirms something: the Guadalajara Open Akron is already a fixed, world-class date on Mexico's sporting calendar. And events of this caliber demand that every piece of the operation — from center court to the VIP restrooms — measures up.

    See you at the Panamericano, September 13-19.
