We here at Racquet are partial to Forest Hills Stadium - it’s set in the gorgeous and historic West Side Tennis Club, which was home to the US Open for a few decades and during its heyday in the 1970s, hosted Dylan and the Beatles - who arrived for their show via helicopter, landing on Court 4. Now bands such as Interpol, the xx and Sigur Rós come through on the regular. There’s not a bad seat in the house, but the best ones are former umpire and scorekeeping dugouts now reimagined as private VIP speakeasies with cocktails and tennis ephemera on the walls.
