Market Landscape

Padel is growing rapidly across Spain. The true venue count is likely higher, as independent clubs without public pricing are not always captured.

A score above 65 signals meaningful supply gaps alongside existing demand. Even in regions with established padel infrastructure, venue density per 100,000 residents varies significantly between cities — local analysis pays off.
