The Netherlands will host the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027; Germany will host the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2029
The International Padel Federation (FIP) has awarded to the Netherlands the organisation of the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027 and to Germany the organisation of the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2029, confirming a long-term planning strategy developed together with the national federations, based on collaboration and a shared vision for the growth of international Padel.
For the first time in its history, the FIP is announcing the hosts of two future editions of the FIP Euro Padel Cup at the same time. This decision represents a further demonstration of the maturity reached by the international Padel movement and its ability to plan for the future with a broad vision. Following the recent awarding of the 2026 and 2028 editions of the FIP World Cup to Qatar, the choice of the Netherlands for 2027 and Germany for 2029 as the host countries of the next two editions of the FIP Euro Padel Cup also confirms a development model based on solidity, strategic vision and planning. A pathway that reflects the growing confidence of national federations, institutions, organisers, commercial partners and all stakeholders who continue to invest in the development of Padel.
The awarding of the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027 to the Netherlands and the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2029 to Germany, respectively the 15th and 16th editions of the competition, is the result of a shared planning process and ongoing dialogue with national federations, which on this occasion has translated into particularly effective collaboration with KNLTB, the Dutch Federation, and with the German Federation, the Deutscher Padel Verband. Germany will make its debut as host of the FIP Euro Padel Cup, with the Netherlands stepping up for a second time, a further sign of the sport's expanding footprint across Europe. A method based on collaboration, shared objectives and planning, which represents one of the pillars of the FIP strategy to support the growth of Padel at international level and guarantee organisation, quality and continuity for its main events.
NETHERLANDS 2027 The FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027 will begin with Phase 1, scheduled from 7 to 10 March (NB: the start date may be subject to change depending on the number of registered teams), followed by Phase 2, scheduled from 11 to 13 March. The Final 8, which will award the men's and women's European titles, will be played from 7 to 11 July. The venues for the various phases will be announced shortly by the Dutch Federation.
"The awarding of the 2027 and 2029 editions of the FIP Euro Padel Cup marks another important step in the growth of our sport" said FIP President Luigi Carraro. “After announcing Qatar as the host of the 2026 and 2028 editions of the FIP World Cup," the FIP President continued, "we are now, for the first time, establishing a multi-year framework for the FIP Euro Padel Cup by awarding two future editions simultaneously. This reflects a Federation that is able to plan for the future with stability, vision and continuity, thanks to ongoing dialogue with the national federations and the trust of institutions, organisers, partners and stakeholders. The selection of the Netherlands for 2027 and Germany for 2029, two countries that have demonstrated remarkable growth across all levels of our sport, is the result of close collaboration with their respective federations, whom I would like to thank. It also represents a further step in the continued development of padel in Europe and internationally."
Jacco Eltingh, Sports Director of the KNLTB: "We are proud to host the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027 in the Netherlands. Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in our country, with over 876,000 active players and more than 3,500 courts, alongside strong performances from our national teams on the international stage. Hosting the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2027 is a natural next step in this development. It reflects the transition of padel into a more professional and internationally positioned sport. Together with Athvance Sports, we will deliver a large-scale, multi-city event that not only showcases the best players in Europe, but also connects and inspires a rapidly growing community across the Netherlands."
Steffi Steible, CEO of German Padel Federation: "We are proud to begin our journey towards the FIP Euro Padel Cup 2029. The trust that the FIP has placed in Germany reflects the remarkable growth of padel in our country and encourages us to aim even higher. Hosting this major event means much more than staging an international competition; it represents an opportunity to engage a new generation and further accelerate the development of our sport. Germany is ready. The future of padel is being built every day, and 2029 will mark a key milestone on that journey".
