**The schedule:** Utrecht from 7 to 13 September, Amsterdam from 21 to 27 September, then Rotterdam from 27 September to 3 October. These three events put padel in the Netherlands at the centre of the international calendar for almost a month.

## Utrecht opens the run with a FIP Silver

The first stop runs from 7 to 13 September in Utrecht. The [FIP Silver Padel Copa Utrecht](https://www.padelfip.com/events/fip-silver-padel-copa-utrecht-2026/) will feature women’s and men’s draws, with qualifying starting on 9 September and the finals scheduled for Sunday 13 September.

The centre court will be installed at Zomerstadion Utrecht on Jaarbeursplein, a few minutes from the central station. Matches are also scheduled on the courts at Peakz Padel Zeehaenkade. The KNLTB lists €9,000 in prize money for the women and the same amount for the men. For Dutch players, the week offers a chance to test themselves in an international draw without leaving the country.

## Amsterdam takes over before Rotterdam

The Dutch calendar resumes from 21 to 27 September with the [FIP Silver Amsterdam](https://www.padelfip.com/events/fip-silver-amsterdam-2026/). The tournament will be played at XNRGY Club in Amsterdam-Duivendrecht. The FIP lists a 32-pair main draw and total prize money of €18,000.

This event is new to the 2026 calendar. It extends the CUPRA FIP Tour’s presence in a country where 876,000 people played padel in 2025, according to KNLTB and EY figures published in 2026. Jacco Eltingh, KNLTB Director of Sport, summed up that growth in July:

> *“The development of padel in the Netherlands is impressive, both at participation level and in elite sport.”*

## Rotterdam closes the month with Premier Padel P2

On 27 September, the level changes. Rotterdam Ahoy will host the Rotterdam P2 through 3 October. The event featuring the circuit’s leading pairs will therefore begin on the same day as the FIP Silver Amsterdam finals.

Rotterdam already has a strong base: the local organisers counted 39,758 visitors across the 2025 edition at Ahoy. To understand what the P2 category means, our [guide to P1 and P2 categories](https://actu-padel.com/p1-p2-padel-quelles-differences-sur-premier-padel/) explains the differences in points, prize money and format.

The official 2026 Premier Padel calendar, which includes Rotterdam, was also presented on the circuit’s official Instagram account:

Utrecht, Amsterdam and Rotterdam therefore give the Netherlands three weeks of international exposure across two levels of competition. This concentration comes less than a year before the 2027 FIP Euro Padel Cup awarded to the Netherlands, another marker of the country’s growing role in the European calendar.
