BKC's Jio World Garden to host World Pickleball League S2 in January 2026
The World Pickleball League (WPBL) has confirmed Jio World Garden in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex as the official venue for Season 2, scheduled from January 24 to February 8, 2026. The venue boasts world-class infrastructure and versatility, having hosted international artists such as Backstreet Boys, Bryan Adams, Slash, and Armin van Buuren, as well as Indian icons like Arijit Singh, AR Rahman, and Diljit Dosanjh.
This will be the first time that Jio World Garden will be used for a franchise-based sports league. Its reputation as a premier event space in BKC is the primary reason it is reserved for events, such as weddings and concerts.
