During the week, the clay-court tournament also aims to give many children from disadvantaged neighborhoods access to sport, by introducing them to tennis. A track and field event is also organized for these youngsters, with the finish on the historic Croix Catelan track, which hosted the marathon at the Paris Olympic Games. Other side events include a charity gala evening to raise funds for the Imagine Institute, the world's leading center for research, care and teaching of genetic diseases.

The final day features a doubles exhibition match featuring four of the club's legends: Mansour Bahrami, Cédric Pioline, Fabrice Santoro and Arnaud Clément. This event takes place just before the ladies' final, at the capital's only women's tournament.
