When the Pickleball World Championships return to Brookhaven Country Club in Dallas, Texas, from October 31 to November 9, so too will the sport’s biggest celebration: Pickleball Blvd.
Think of it as a street fest for all things pickleball, along with nonstop entertainment, delicious food and drinks, and plenty of fan-fueled fun. Last year, nearly 60,000 guests enjoyed the Pickleball Blvd festivities.
So how do you make the most of it? Here’s a look at how to navigate Pickleball Blvd like
a pro.
Set your base at the music stage
Start your journey where dinks and beats collide. The live music stage is the hub of the boulevard, and a great “home base” to soak in the festival vibe before branching out to food, shops, and games.
Fuel up and shop around
Next stop: the food trucks and vendor booths. Grab a bite and explore interactive exhibits, exclusive merch, and the latest gear. Don’t miss the Selkirk booth, where you can demo paddles and check out the same gear the pros play with.
Sidetrack it to the celebrity showdown
From there, follow the crowd toward the Deep Eddy Vodka Celebrity Pickleball Showdown, a can’t-miss matchup where celebrities team up with pros for serious fun.
Last year’s event featured entertaining matches with pickleball pros pairing up with sports legends, including Dirk Nowitzki, Scottie Scheffler, Terrell Owens, Adrian Peterson, and Golden Tate.
Insider tip: arrive early to snag the best viewing spot for this sell-out event.
Head courtside for the main event
After you’ve eaten, shopped, and cheered, it’s time to catch the PPA Tour pros battling for the championship title. The energy courtside is unmatched, and you’ll be right in the middle of pickleball history in the making.
Plan your route with ease
Pickleball Blvd draws big crowds, so skip the parking headache by booking a stay at one of the event’s partner hotels. Each offers a complimentary shuttle service, making it simpler and far less stressful to get to and from the action.
