The new grass tournament starting in 2028 already knows its venue
The ATP calendar will undergo very important structural changes in 2028, one of which will be the celebration of an additional tournament on grass. Following the official confirmation that Brussels will not renew the license to organize an ATP 250 tournament, this has been acquired by the Italian Tennis Federation to host an event on the grass tour.
It will take place before Wimbledon, and the new venue has already been officially announced. Although it was initially reported that Milan would host the event, the Italian tennis authorities ultimately chose another location near Venice known as Roncade.
The campus features sports facilities, bars and restaurants, accommodation, over 300 events a year, meeting room rentals for corporate events, and a marina. Additionally, it is very close to Venice's Marco Polo airport, less than fifteen minutes away. Source https://t.co/0obB4zpP9H

The tournament will be held 10 kilometers from Venice airport
It consists of an innovative campus that focuses on education, the development of start-ups, and initiatives related to the sports world. It is only 10 kilometers from Venice airport, features very cutting-edge facilities, and has views of the Venice lagoon. It is a meeting place for companies and institutions, hosting more than 300 events a year.
There will be great interest in seeing what level of players they can attract, considering that ATP 250 tournaments are increasingly struggling to feature renowned players. The density of top local players and the current tennis fever in Italy ensure that the tournament has every chance of being a success.
Brussels did not bear the cost of bringing its ATP tournament to grass, so they ceded the license to Italy. Starting in 2028, it will be played on a campus ten km from Venice airport, where they wanted to build a golf academy. https://t.co/CZ094vfEap
