Friday, May 29, 2026, 10am
One of the largest public tennis facilities in the Southeast, Cary Tennis Park hosts a wide range of racquet sports, including tennis championships and pickleball tournaments such as the Carvana PPA Tour, plus year-round member programming. A big highlight ahead, the Veolia Pickleball National Championships will take place at the venue Aug. 31-Sept. 6, 2026, bringing globally ranked players from across the country to Cary, N.C.
"Cary Tennis Park is, without question, one of the premier tennis venues in America," says Scott Dupree, executive director of the Greater Raleigh Sports Alliance (GRSA). "The facility is beautiful and immaculately maintained, and the service level provided by the Town of Cary is unmatched. No wonder it hosts top-notch professional tournaments, elite collegiate championships and an endless array of high school and youth events. Cary Tennis Park is a crown jewel among tennis centers nationwide."

The park features 32 championship courts, including one stadium court with permanent seating and seven covered courts, allowing for year-round play. It also offers four permanent, 36-foot QuickStart/pickleball courts. Seven of the covered courts were added in July 2017, further enhancing the facility’s ability to host events in any weather.
Features also include scenic bridges, lush landscaping, a clubhouse and locker rooms with showers. The clubhouse includes seven post-tension, concrete tennis courts, a concourse, restrooms and an indirect LED lighting system. The clubhouse is open daily, 8am-10pm (except during winter, 8:30am-9pm).
