There are events that go beyond sport. This is what the Bullpadel Show 06, June 20 and 21, 2025, at the Pinède in Juan-les-Pins. For its second edition, the show was not only on the dance floor… but in the track. The public discovered a new and spectacular creation: the first artistic padel court, imagined by Richard Orlinsky, the best-selling contemporary French artist in the world.

Conceived as an immersive work in its own right, this extraordinary track borrows the visual codes of the pop, colorful, and sculptural universe for which Orlinski is renowned. A crazy idea turned reality, transforming the playing space into a large-scale artistic setting, blurring the lines between sport, culture, and contemporary art.

On this unique terrain, Padel has become a visual performanceAnd to celebrate the event, posters were needed to match the occasion: the public was able to attend exhibition matches bringing together several leading figures of the world circuit such as Paquito Navarro, Fede Chingotto, Juan Tello, Bea Gonzalez or, Claudia Fernández. But also to a highly anticipated match, all in second degree, opposing Laure Boulleau and Richard Orlinski à Ophélie Meunier and Redouane Bougheraba.

Beyond the spectacle, the event also had a solidarity dimension. Bullpadel Show 06 raised funds for two causes dear to its organizers: the Gustave Roussy Foundation, cancer treatment center, and the Adrien Association, which supports sick children. A way of extending the commitment started with the first edition in 2023.

More than just an exhibition tournament, the Bullpadel Show now establishes itself as a hybrid meeting combining high-level sport, community involvement and artistic approach. With this track signed Orlinski, it is perhaps a new era that is opening for padel: one where the court itself becomes a work of art.
