Within the last couple of months, the APP Tour has landed in China, India, England, Sweden, and now...Spain.

The Association of Pickleball Players announced another addition to its 2023 international slate, a partnership with Pickleball Salamanca to become the promoting partner of the 2023 Spanish Open powered by The APP.

The event will be held September 1-3 in Salamanca, Spain, marking the eighth edition of the Spanish Open, previously held annually in Madrid.

The 2023 Spanish Open powered by The APP will host a variety of events and clinics throughout tournament week in Salamanca, including traditional singles, doubles, and mixed doubles brackets in the age groups U-14, U-18, 19+, 50+ and 60+ at skill levels 2.5 through 5.0.

Competition will take place on more than 30 total courts across two adjacent venues: Campo de Tiro y Deportes de Salamanca and Polideportivo Río Tormes.
