Since 2016\, that tradition has continued in style at the BNP Paribas Fortis European Open\, an ATP 250 event that has consistently delivered high-quality tennis and first-class sporting entertainment. For nine years\, the tournament called Antwerp home\, earning a reputation for its intimate atmosphere\, passionate crowds\, and a trophy case that features some of the sport’s most recognizable names. \n\n\n\nHowever\, 2025 marks a new chapter\, as the event relocates to the nation’s capital\, Brussels\, where it will be staged from 13–19 October at a yet-to-be-confirmed venue—bringing top-level tennis back to a city steeped in sporting history. The move is expected to broaden the tournament’s appeal\, tapping into Brussels’ status as a vibrant European hub and its larger infrastructure to potentially expand both player and fan experiences. \n\n\n\nIn recent years\, the event has showcased a blend of veteran guile and rising talent\, with the last three champions exemplifying that mix: the mercurial Alexander Bublik\, who dazzled his way to the title in 2023; the relentless consistency of Roberto Bautista Agut\, who triumphed in 2024; and the explosive athleticism of Félix Auger-Aliassime\, who claimed the crown in 2025. As the BNP Paribas Fortis European Open embarks on its Brussels era\, it carries with it the legacy of Belgian tennis excellence while forging a fresh identity in one of Europe’s most dynamic cities. \n\n\n\nTournament Details\n\n\n\nOfficial NameBNP Paribas Fortis European OpenDateOctober 17–25\, 2026Edition11th EditionCategoryATP 250SurfaceIndoor Hard CourtsLocationBrussels\, BelgiumVenueBrussels ExpoDraw Size28 Singles / 16 DoublesPrize Money€723\,435Official Websiteeuropeanopen.beTournament LinkOfficial ATP Tournament Page\n\n\n\n2025 Champions\n\n\n\nEventChampion(s)Runner(s)-upScoreSinglesFélix Auger-Aliassime (CAN) [2]Jiří Lehečka (CZE) [3]7–6(7–2)\, 6–7(6–8)\, 6–2DoublesChristian Harrison (USA) / Evan King (USA) [2]Hugo Nys (MON) / Édouard Roger-Vasselin (FRA) [1]7–6(12–10)\, 7–6(7–5)\n\n\n\n\n\nRelated Events\n\n\n2026 European Open2026 Grand Prix Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes2026 Almaty Open2027 ATP Hong Kong Tennis Open2027 Brisbane International2027 Adelaide International URL:https://tennistourcalendar.com/event/european-open/ CATEGORIES:ATP Tour ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://tennistourcalendar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/European-Open-Tennis.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20261018T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20261025T235959 DTSTAMP:20260806T115429Z CREATED:20260806T115424Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260806T115429Z UID:5152-1792281600-1792972799@tennistourcalendar.com SUMMARY:2026 Grand Prix Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes DESCRIPTION:Updated on September 21\, 2026\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 2026\, the ATP Tour welcomes a new chapter in French tennis with the inaugural Grand Prix Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes\, set to be held in Lyon from 18–25 October on indoor hard courts. The event arrives following the relocation of the long-standing Marseille ATP 250 tournament\, which had been a fixture on the calendar from 1993 to 2025. Lyon—France’s third-largest city and a culinary and cultural powerhouse—now steps into the spotlight\, adding a fresh yet familiar stop to the Tour’s autumn indoor swing. With this move\, France maintains its proud tradition of hosting four ATP tournaments\, joining the prestigious ranks of the Rolex Paris Masters\, the Open 13 Provence (now rebranded in its new home)\, and the Moselle Open in Metz. \n\n\n\nThe Marseille edition\, which preceded this transition\, owed much of its legacy to Jean-Francois Caujolle\, the former player and visionary who championed bringing top-tier tennis to his hometown. His efforts paid off handsomely\, as the event became a beloved fixture on the Tour\, known for its passionate crowds and competitive fields. Across 33 editions\, seven Frenchmen delighted home fans by lifting the trophy: Guy Forget in 1996; Fabrice Santoro in 1999; Arnaud Clément in 2006; Gilles Simon\, who claimed victory in both 2007 and 2015; Jo‑Wilfried Tsonga\, a three‑time champion in 2009\, 2013\, and 2017; Michaël Llodra in 2011; and most recently\, Ugo Humbert\, who captured back‑to‑back titles in 2024 and 2025.
