We’re pleased to share that planning permission has been approved by Birmingham City Council for four brand-new Padel Courts on the rooftop of the Gracechurch Shopping Centre multi-storey car park. This is fantastic news for the town centre, bringing an exciting, fast-growing sport right into the heart of Sutton Coldfield. Padel is one of the UK’s fastest growing activities, and this development will introduce a vibrant new leisure offer, attracting more visitors, increasing footfall, and creating even more reasons to spend time in the town. Activating the rooftop space in this way is a brilliant example of reimagining and diversifying town centre spaces, blending retail, leisure and wellbeing to create a more dynamic destination. We look forward to seeing this exciting project take shape and will share updates as they progress! 🎾✨ 🚨 Image is not of the actual padel courts and is for illustration purposes only.
