The Drive

The Drive, traditionally known as the Memorial Drive, has been the home of South Australian tennis since 1921, located in the heart of Adelaide adjacent to Adelaide Oval. The centre received a major redevelopment during 2019, completed ahead of the new Adelaide International tournament in January 2020. A new canopy roof was installed over the main arena, while the outdoor courts were renovated, including a new pavilion and LED lighting. Further works were completed in 2022 including new grandstand seating and corporate facilities. The venue now also hosts music and entertainment events under its canopy.

Memorial Drive Tennis Centre

The Memorial Drive Tennis Centre includes a total of 13 lawn courts, 11 hard courts and 4 synthetic grass courts.
