New experiences at this year’s Credit One Charleston Open

DANIEL ISLAND, S.C. (WCBD) – Organizers behind the Credit One Charleston Open on Daniel Island are serving up some new experiences for fans during the first weekend of the tennis tournament.

While the main event – set to include 10 of the world’s top 20 players, featuring four top 10 athletes, multiple Grand Slam champions, and two Olympic gold medalists- takes place on the main court, there are offerings around the stadium for everyone attending the tournament.

There are family-friendly activation zones located on the grounds where attendees can play pickleball or paddle, spend some time in the kid’s zone, visit the new merchandise tent, and enjoy the new food and beverage vendors.

“With this specific tournament, we try to do a lot of local restaurants that we partner with just to give people coming from out of town a chance to enjoy these restaurants they may not to get to go very often,” said Travis Maynard, OVG Hospitality General Manager

Organizers say the Charleston Open is an outing for everyone and noted that these new changes are a result of feedback from fans.

“To me, the event here just keeps getting better and better. That’s a goal of ours every year, for our fans to come on-site and see something new but also see us keep providing this level of excellence that our fans have come to know and love,” said Ben Baumeister, senior director of strategy.

The tournament will have matches every day this week, with the finals scheduled for April 6. Click here to purchase tickets or to learn more about the event.
