FAQs

When does the new facility open?

We're targeting the end of 2026! Our current location stays open the whole time, so you won't miss a single rally while we build your new favorite place.

Where is the new facility located?

350 Gallatin Park Dr. Bozeman, MT — just 1.77 miles north of our current courts, neighbors with several awesome businesses including Map Brewing, Monarch Pilates, Paridae Cafe, and near the new Bikefill Mountain Bike Park and Bozeman Beach.. Easy to find, impossible to leave.

What's happening to the current location?

It's not going anywhere until the new facility is ready. We've hosted over 15,000 player visits there and we're not slowing down. Once the new spot opens, we'll let you know what's next- our current building is likely getting torn down next year.

How many courts will there be?

Five indoor and Four Outdoor PPA tournament-size pickleball courts with incredible views and plenty of seating to watch gameplay, plus indoor and outdoor padel courts — the best place in the Last Best Place to play the world's fastest growing sport.

What is padel?

Think pickleball meets tennis meets racquetball — played in an enclosed glass court and wildly addictive. We'll have everything you need to learn it, love it, and get hooked.

Will there be staff and instruction on site?

Yes! We'll have friendly, knowledgeable staff on site along with professional instructors and facilitators to help you get the most out of every visit — whether you're brand new or a seasoned player.

What else is there to do besides play?

A lot. Indoor and outdoor lounge areas, social events, live music, staffed clinics and ladders, and a direct launching point onto Bozeman's new 40-mile trail loop. Come to play, stay for everything else.

Why a 34-foot roof height?

Two words: lob city. No more ceiling interference — just clean, open air and the game played the way it's meant to be played.

Will memberships carry over?

Yes — your membership moves with you. More details coming as we get closer to opening, but existing members will be the first to know and will definitely be taken care of when we move.

How do I stay in the loop?

Sign up for updates and follow us — we'll be sharing construction milestones, sneak peeks, and early access opportunities as June approaches. You won't want to miss it.
