The Plas Coch Road venue recently benefitted from a £2.5 million refurbishment, primarily funded by the UK Government’s Shared Prosperity Fund.
Additional support came from Sport Wales and Wrexham Council followed by a further grant from the Welsh Government to bring the lighting up to ITF international tennis standards.
The centre will be transformed during the tournament, with a 600-seat capacity arena constructed around the main show court for spectators.
Caroline Lacy, head of tennis relations and event development at the LTA, said: “We are thrilled to bring women’s professional tennis back to Wales for the first time in nearly three decades.”
Welsh minister for culture, skills and social partnership Jack Sargeant “was thoroughly impressed” by the venue’s facilities.
“These world-class amenities are an important addition to the sporting landscape in north Wales, providing a platform where both elite athletes and grassroots enthusiasts from the local community can train and enjoy their sport,” he added.
“Bringing an elite women’s tennis tournament to Wrexham for the first time is also an investment in our tourism industry.
Tennis Wales chief executive Simon Johnson said: “This tournament will help to further raise the profile of tennis in Wales and it’s an event to really look forward to.”
