Reserve Padel has officially announced the return of its flagship global tournament with the launch of the 2026 Reserve Cup Series, setting the stage for the most ambitious chapter in the sport’s rapid rise. Following a breakout year that brought the Reserve Cup from Miami to the international stage in Marbella, the 2026 season will open where it all began—Miami—before expanding to additional U.S. and global destinations to be revealed in the months ahead.
The series will kick off January 22–24, 2026, as the iconic Reserve Miami Seaplane Base once again transforms into a world-class padel arena. Set against Biscayne Bay, the three-day event will bring together the world’s top-ranked players, high-profile guests, and fans for an immersive experience that blends elite competition with Miami’s signature luxury and energy.
Led by Reserve Founder and CEO Wayne Boich, alongside Honorary Chairman Jimmy Butler, the Reserve Cup has quickly established itself as one of the most prestigious events in professional padel—positioned at the intersection of sport, lifestyle, and culture. What began as a bold vision in 2024 has evolved into a global platform helping drive padel’s explosive growth across the U.S. and abroad.
The 2026 Reserve Cup Series will feature the largest prize pool in padel history and introduce an elevated competitive format centered around two elite teams led by star captains. Confirmed players include some of the biggest names in the sport, including Arturo Coello, Agustín Tapia, Alejandro Galán, Coki Nieto, and Miguel Yanguas, with more to be announced.
Off the court, the Reserve Cup experience will once again extend far beyond the matches. Guests can expect the return of The Reserve Club, a VIP hospitality lounge overlooking the Bay offering world-class cuisine, along with an expanded Food & Beverage Pavilion highlighting Miami’s top culinary concepts. The result is a sporting event designed to feel as much like a cultural moment as a competition.
After its debut in 2024 and international expansion in 2025, the Reserve Cup has emerged as a defining force in modern padel—attracting global audiences, major brands, and A-list attendees while elevating the sport’s profile worldwide. The 2026 Miami edition will serve as both a celebration of that momentum and the official launchpad for the next phase of the Reserve Cup’s global expansion.
The 2025 Reserve Cup Miami drew a notable roster of attendees, including Derek and Hannah Jeter, Andrew Schulz, Zac Efron, Nick Bosa, Rony Seikaly, Paul Pogba, Blaise Matuidi, Gianluca Vacchi, Claire Holt, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, and Adewale Ogunleye.
