The Devonshire Park Lawn Tennis Club is a tennis complex in Eastbourne, United Kingdom. The complex is the host of the annual ATP and WTA Tour tournament called the AEGON Eastbourne International. The stadium court has a capacity of 8,000 people. The Devonshire Park opened its gates to the public on July 1, 1874 and in the following year, for the first time, a tennis court was marked out on its prestigious lawns. A little later in 1877 the All England Croquet and Lawn Tennis Club set about regularising the laws of lawn tennis and produced its first tournament at Wimbledon running from July 9–16 of that year.
