Indoor Pickleball Event Venue

Pickle Pop in Santa Monica is an approximately 10,000-square-foot indoor pickleball facility on Third Street Promenade that can be reserved for private events. The main attraction is built into the venue: groups can play pickleball together rather than relying entirely on dining, drinks or entertainment to carry the event. Private packages can include equipment and instructors, with roughly three to four hours of private venue use referenced for event bookings. Capacity information reaches about 100 guests. A full bar, fully equipped kitchen and sound system are available, and outside catering is allowed.

The recreation format is particularly useful for company outings, celebrations and other group events where organizers want guests actively participating instead of simply gathering in a room. Sonos sound is available, and optional DJ or blacklight/glow experiences can add a more nightlife-oriented layer to the event. Instructors can also make the activity accessible to groups with mixed experience levels. Pickle Pop is especially appropriate for planners who want a social event with a clear built-in activity and a central Santa Monica location. Food, drinks and music can support the gathering, but the pickleball courts remain the feature that makes the venue fundamentally different from a standard party space.
