Courthaus Padel Announces 24/7 Indoor Venue Launch in York

York is set to welcome its first continuous-access padel facility when Courthaus Padel launches on Saturday 28 November 2026. The new club is situated in a converted former warehouse on Common Lane in the village of Dunnington. Planning approval granted by City of York Council confirmed the change of use for the commercial site, creating three indoor courts with adjoining car parking.

The launch addresses growing demand across North Yorkshire, providing fully enclosed courts that can be used regardless of seasonal weather. Unlike earlier outdoor padel planning proposals that faced local council objections, the indoor format eliminates noise disturbance to neighbours while giving players round-the-clock playing opportunities.

To introduce players to the facilities, Courthaus Padel will host a free open day starting at 10am on 28 November. Visitors can trial the new courts free of charge, with complimentary racquets and balls provided alongside introductory advice from qualified coaches.

Following the open event, general bookings will become available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Players will be able to book pay-and-play sessions, register for local social leagues, or join club membership schemes that grant discounted court rates and advance booking privileges.
