One of the biggest events in New York City each year — and one that has become synonymous with the end of the summer — is the U.S. Open. From the matches themselves to the buzz across the entire grounds, it's part world-class sporting event and part New York social experience at its finest, with plenty to do, see, and eat.
Based on my past experiences, it's fair to say that the U.S. Open is unquestionably a lot of fun, but it can also be hot and crowded, with long lines. Being able to duck into a quieter, air-conditioned lounge (thanks to your credit card) and grab a Honey Deuce and maybe even a chair can be the perfect addition to the afternoon out in Queens.
Thankfully, both Chase and American Express again have a presence at the U.S. Open this year, with each operating dedicated lounge spaces just for their cardholders.
Here's what you need to know about the Chase and Amex lounges at the 2026 U.S. Open, including how to get inside.

The Chase Lounge will open in time for Fan Week at this year's U.S. Open. During Fan Week, the Chase Lounge will be open Aug. 24-28 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Eastern Time on a first-come, first-served basis for Chase customers.
During the main part of the tournament, which starts on Aug. 30, the Chase Lounge will be open from 10:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. during the daytime sessions and 6 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. during the evening sessions. Note that the lounge is open for sessions 1 - 19 and session 21 and is closed for sessions 20 and 22 - 27.
However, unlike during Fan Week, the Chase Lounge will operate on a reservations-only model for Chase customers during the main draw of the tournament.
Reservations for the Chase Lounge during those main sessions will be released daily at 9 a.m. Eastern on the ChaseGetsYouCloser.com website for the following day's sessions.
