The first tournament matches in Paris took place in 1969, after the Open era began. The tournament was then known as the Paris Open and was held in November at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin. The arena opened in 1937 for the World's Fair and was named after the founder of the modern Olympic Games. The inaugural tournament was held on indoor carpeted courts, which ensured a fast pace of play, while a roof protected from autumn rains and low temperatures. The main court seated 4,000 spectators, who witnessed Tom OKKER become the first tournament winner. The last tournament at the arena was held in 1982, and it was not held for the next 3 years due to financial problems and scheduling conflicts. The stadium is now the home of the Paris Saint-Germain handball club.

In 1984, one of the largest venues for concerts, shows, and sporting events in France, the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, opened in Paris, becoming an iconic building in the French capital. It was here that the tennis tournament in Paris moved after a three-year break. In 2014, after a large-scale reconstruction, the arena was named Bercy Arena. From 2015-2020, after signing a sponsorship agreement with a hotel operator, the building was known as AccorHotels Arena. Since 2020, in connection with the company's rebranding, the arena has officially changed its name to Accor Arena. In 1986-2006, matches were held on a fast carpet surface, and since 2007, on a hard court, which allows for longer ball draws. The arena's capacity was about 15,000 spectators.

Paris La Défense Arena was opened in 2017 in Nanterre (western suburbs of Paris) as the home arena for local rugby club Racing 92. Today, it is the largest indoor multi-purpose complex in Europe, hosting world music and sports events. The Rolex Paris Masters tournament has moved here in 2025, from the legendary Paris-Bercy. The tennis courts are not permanent and are installed inside the arena on the eve of the competition. The Centre court at Paris La Défense Arena can accommodate 17,500 spectators. In addition to the main court, the complex offers the following spectator facilities on other courts: Court No.1 (over 4,000 seats), Court No.2 (about 4,000 seats), Court No.3 (several hundred seats) and a practice zone. The tennis courts in the complex use a hard surface (Hardcourt, type GreenSet), with a slow to medium bounce.

The unique multifunctionality of the Paris La Défense arena has enabled a tennis court to be placed directly on the swimming pool site, where the best swimmers competed during the 2024 Olympic Games. The organizers have very elegantly transformed this space into a cozy amphitheater thanks to a special huge curtain 37 meters high and 100 meters long, which separates the central court from the rest of the huge hall (which usually hosts rock concerts and rugby matches), creating perfect acoustics. Unlike most tournaments, the event in Paris does not have a specific second court. Next to the center court are three more playing courts, which allow spectators to move quickly and conveniently to other locations.
