Pickleball in Barcelona Spain

UPDATED January 2026

My invitation to join me in Spain in May 2025 has come and gone, but what an incredible adventure it was! Below are the details from my 2025 trip, but the good news is that new tours are now available for you to choose from. 

Check out Mickle Pickleball Trips!

Imagine playing pickleball in the heart of Barcelona, surrounded by breathtaking art, historic sites, and a vibrant festival atmosphere. This city’s warm weather and friendly faces make it an unbeatable destination for your next vacation!

Barcelona will be our home base for this pickleball trip. It is a vibrant, historic coastal city that never sleeps. From Barcelona, we’ll take 3 incredible day trips, always returning to sleep at our hotel in Barcelona (love that! no packing and unpacking). On our day trips we’ll take guided tours of the following cities: Montserrat Monastery (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Dalí Museum in Figueres, and the medieval town of Girona, and a wine-tasting trip to the region of Penedès followed by a visit to the charming, historic beach village of Sitges.

Pickleball is scheduled for at least every other day throughout the tour. It includes pickleball instruction from Jennifer Lucore, yours truly (Pickleball Hall of Famer!), and open play and competition with the locals. Fortunately, pickleball continues to grow throughout Spain, offering a unique opportunity to play with the Spaniards on your pickleball vacation.

This marks my 2nd Barcelona Tour with Pickleball Tour Spain/Mike Hess (Update 10/25: Their new business name is Mickle Pickleball Trips), and my 5th in total (with Madrid and Malaga also receiving rave reviews). I can’t get enough of the awe-inspiring beauty of Spain, and I’m thrilled to share this experience with you.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity as life keeps speeding by –  Let the Fun Begin!
