The UK's glow in the dark padel
Padel, but it glows.
UV-lit courts, glowing glass and nets, neon rackets and a big playlist. Glow Padel turns any indoor court into the session everyone's talking about, at padel centres across the UK.
How do you want to glow?
What is Glow Padel?
The lights go off. Everything else glows.
Same court, same rules, completely different game. Beginners love it, regulars come back for it, and venues run it day or night.
UV court lighting
Professional UV lights that make every marking, ball and racket pop.
Glowing court markings
UV markings on the glass, cage and net light up the whole court in neon.
Neon rackets and tops
Glowing rackets and glow tops so every player shines.
UV face paint
The bit everyone puts on Instagram.
Music and a disco ball
A proper atmosphere, not just a game in the dark.
For everyone
Beginners, families, socials, leagues and corporate groups.

For venuesQuestions
What actually glows?
Under UV light the court markings on the glass, cage and net, plus the balls, rackets, glow tops and face paint, all light up. The venue's normal lights go off for the full effect.
Is it safe to play in the dark?
Yes. The court, ball and players are all clearly visible and the usual padel rules apply.
Do I need to be good at padel?
Not at all. Glow Padel events are some of the most beginner-friendly sessions a venue runs.
Is it only in the evening?
No. Glow Padel works any time a venue can make its courts dark, so many venues run daytime events too, like coffee mornings and family sessions.
How do I book?
Each venue runs its own glow sessions, so you book through the venue's usual system, often Playtomic. Find your nearest on the Where to play page.
Will it damage the courts?
No. Our court markings are non-damaging and fully removable.
