Victoria Warehouse, Manchester

The inaugural British Padel Awards were held at Victoria Warehouse in Trafford Park, Manchester on Saturday 16 May 2026. Originally built in 1925 as a shipping warehouse, the venue has been transformed into one of the city's most striking event spaces. With its exposed brickwork, industrial steel beams and soaring ceilings, it gave the night a backdrop with real character.

The ballroom hosted 650 to 800 guests in black tie for a night honouring excellence across the sport. See the gallery, or read the full list of winners.
