The upcoming athletic gathering will take place in central Vilnius, featuring a comprehensive setup of sporting facilities. The venue will accommodate 15 mini courts dedicated to tennis, alongside dedicated courts for both badminton and pickleball. These facilities are intended to facilitate training sessions led by professional tennis coaches for all participants.
The event is a collaborative effort organized by the Vilnius Tennis Academy in partnership with the National Sports Agency. Historically, the Tennis Academy has hosted “Tenis Festivals” at the Cathedral Square over the last four years, events that have introduced several thousand individuals to the sport of tennis. For the current iteration, organizers have opted to significantly expand the scope of the festival.
Beyond its core focus on tennis, the event will now introduce participants to badminton and the rapidly growing sport of pickleball. According to representatives involved, this expansion reflects an observation made over the past four years: that public interest in trying new sports flourishes when the appropriate conditions and resources are available. This expanded format aims to provide a broader introduction to racket sports.
While the foundation remains rooted in tennis, the inclusion of diverse activities ensures that the festival serves as a comprehensive hub for amateur athletes and enthusiasts looking to explore various physical pursuits within a single, accessible setting.
