Racket sports are heating up in Phoenix. Earlier this week, Connect ran a story about a nearly 200,000 square foot pickleball/padel facility in the Talking Stick development just outside Scottsdale. And now a new concept is coming to Chandler. The Phoenix Business Journal reports Padeland is taking over the space where the LOOK Dine-In Cinemas used to be. The 35,000-square-foot facility is at 1 W. Chandler Blvd.

Padeland, expected to be completed by the end of 2025, is slated to have four padel courts, five pickleball courts, a full-scale craft brewery and taproom, restaurant, coffee shop, coworking space and a wide range of wellness and hospitality features.

Padeland will open early for morning matches and stay open through the evening. The concept is being designed with full-service food and beverage options that encourage people to eat and drink before or after games. The on-site co-working space is intended for remote workers to get some work done between matches.
