Global tournament calendar Q4: Where to Build Next?

Written by Communications Department Portico Sport September 19, 2025

Padel is no longer a regional sport — it’s a global movement. With tournaments now scheduled across Europe, the Middle East, the Americas, and Asia, Q4 is shaping up to be one of the busiest periods of the year for international competition. For builders, promoters, and investors, the global padel tournament calendar provides more than entertainment: it offers a roadmap of where the sport is growing fastest and where new courts may be most needed.

The global padel tournament calendar in Q4

As the final quarter of 2025 unfolds, professional tournaments are set to highlight cities that have rapidly become hubs for padel. From Europe’s traditional strongholds to new frontiers in North America and Asia, these events not only attract elite players but also inspire communities and accelerate demand for local facilities.

Key hotspots include:

  • ➡️Europe: Spain, France, and Italy remain core markets with strong participation and hosting capacity. Paris, Rome, and Madrid all play host to high-profile events that continue to expand padel’s visibility.
  • ➡️Middle East: Countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are heavily investing in international tournaments, with padel courts becoming signature features in large-scale sports complexes.
  • ➡️Americas: The United States is fast emerging as a key market, with Q4 tournaments fueling momentum for new clubs, particularly in major urban centers.
  • ➡️Asia: Countries like Japan and Singapore are beginning to feature on the calendar, offering early-stage opportunities for promoters and investors.

Why tournament locations matter for investors

Tournament venues do more than host matches — they create long-term infrastructure demands. When international competitions arrive in a city, they generate new interest in the sport, increase membership inquiries at nearby clubs, and encourage local governments and private investors to expand sports offerings.

For clubs and promoters, this means aligning investment strategies with the global calendar can provide first-mover advantage in high-growth areas. Building padel courts in or near tournament cities positions facilities to capture both immediate attention and long-term player demand..

Smart strategies for future court construction

  • ➡️Follow the calendar: Target cities and regions highlighted by major Q4 tournaments as indicators of strong growth and visibility.
  • ➡️Plan for scalability: Build modular and adaptable facilities that can expand as player demand rises after events.
  • ➡️Create spectator-friendly spaces: Tournaments inspire audiences. Designing clubs with social and spectator areas helps transform one-time viewers into long-term players.
  • ➡️Prioritize quality standards: Players introduced to padel at world-class events expect professional-grade courts, lighting, and amenities at their local clubs.
