Alpine Paris Padel Major 2026: dates, schedule and highlights of the edition
The Alpine Paris Major takes over the Roland-Garros stadium from 6 to 13 September 2026, for its fifth consecutive edition at Porte d'Auteuil. Organised by the FFT, this sporting event is one of the four Majors on the Premier Padel circuit, the highest world level in the discipline, and remains one of the very few official competitions of this category held in France. The Philippe-Chatrier court is transformed into a padel arena, with pistes installed at the heart of the venue, side courts for the early rounds and entertainment spaces that turn the stadium into a genuine social hub throughout the week. The address of the Roland-Garros stadium, 2 avenue Gordon-Bennett, is only minutes away from Boulogne.
The schedule follows a clear progression: qualifying on Monday 7 September, the first round on Tuesday 8, the second round on Wednesday 9, the round of 16 on Thursday 10, the quarter-finals on Friday 11 on the Suzanne-Lenglen court, the semi-finals on Saturday 12 and the finals on Sunday 13. The evening sessions, held from Tuesday to Friday, are among the most sought-after moments for spectators: under the lights of the Chatrier, the action takes on an intensity few tournaments can offer.
Who should you watch? On the men's side, the partnership of Agustín Tapia and Arturo Coello has dominated the world rankings for several seasons, with the pair of Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto waiting in the wings. On the women's side, Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea remain the benchmark on the circuit, while the French public follows the progress of home players closely.
To attend the matches, official ticketing is handled by the FFT: several categories of seats and tickets are available depending on the day and the session, with a deliberately accessible pricing policy. Booking this padel experience is done on the tournament's official website, which also publishes the latest news from the event: it is worth checking the latest updates before booking your seats, as the world's best pairs draw bigger crowds every year.
