LAHORE: A new chapter in Lahore’s sporting and recreational landscape has begun with the launch of The Garden Padel, a state-of-the-art club introducing the rapidly growing global sport of padel to the city in a modern, community-driven setting.
Located next to The Garden Spice Restaurant near Green Forts 2, the newly launched facility aims to provide sports enthusiasts, families and social groups with a unique blend of fitness, recreation and leisure. Open 24 hours a day, the club has been designed to cater to players of all skill levels, from beginners discovering the sport to seasoned competitors looking for high-quality facilities.
The Garden Padel features a world-class padel court built to international standards, offering players an authentic experience of the sport that has gained immense popularity across Europe, the Middle East and Latin America. Set within a peaceful farmhouse environment, the venue goes beyond traditional sports facilities by offering a range of attractions, including mini-golf, virtual reality gaming and a restaurant, making it a complete lifestyle destination for visitors.
Founder Faizan Khalid said the vision behind the project is not only to introduce a globally trending sport to Lahore but also to create a social hub where communities can gather, remain active and enjoy a modern sporting culture.
“Padel is more than just a sport — it is a social experience that brings people together,” he said, adding that the club seeks to build a vibrant community around healthy living, recreation and social engagement.
Padel, often described as a blend of tennis and squash, is played on an enclosed court and is known for being easy to learn, highly engaging and suitable for players of all ages. Its rapid international growth has made it one of the world’s fastest-rising sports, with dedicated clubs and professional circuits expanding across continents.
With the launch of The Garden Padel, Lahore is positioning itself among cities embracing this global sporting trend. The club’s management believes the sport has strong potential to attract youth, families and fitness enthusiasts while diversifying the city’s recreational options.
Offering premium court access at Rs4,500, the club aims to make high-quality padel facilities accessible to a growing local community of players. Management says the initiative is focused on promoting active lifestyles through international-standard facilities, innovative entertainment and a welcoming social atmosphere.
Beyond sport, the venue is being promoted as a destination where visitors can combine fitness with leisure, whether through competitive matches, casual games with friends, family outings or social gatherings.
The launch of The Garden Padel reflects the increasing demand in Lahore for modern sports experiences and lifestyle-oriented recreational spaces. As awareness of padel continues to grow, the club hopes to play a leading role in developing the sport in Pakistan and putting Lahore on the map as a hub for this fast-emerging global game.
