MLP Group has agreed a lease with Austrian padel operator Padeldome for a 16-court indoor facility at MLP Business Park Vienna, marking an expansion of the project’s leisure component. The venue is scheduled to open in June 2026.

The agreement covers approximately 6,300 sq m of space, which will be developed by Court One GmbH, part of the Padeldome group. The operator currently manages multiple padel locations across Vienna and is expanding in response to growing demand for the sport.

Peter Falb, Chief Country Officer Austria at MLP Group, said: “We are seeing strong interest in our flagship project in Austria. Bringing in a well-established nationwide operator confirms that MLP Business Park Vienna is an attractive choice for companies seeking modern, flexible space in a prime location. We focus on developing business parks that support urban logistics and sustainable business, while also offering space for leisure and recreation. It is encouraging to see more companies recognising the potential of a project that combines high technical standards with advanced environmental solutions. Together with our partners, we are creating a dynamic and functional working environment.”

Christoph Krenn, Co-Founder and Advisor at Padeldome, added: “With MLP Business Park Vienna, we have found a location that perfectly aligns with our vision. It is a state-of-the-art development with exceptional scale, ideal hall height for a world-class playing experience, and excellent accessibility. This will become our flagship destination, with 16 indoor courts redefining what padel can offer. It marks another milestone for the world’s fastest-growing sport and a landmark project in the Alpine region.”

The transaction was supported by EHL Commercial Real Estate. Raphael Tillmann, Senior Consultant at the firm, said: “Padeldome’s lease at MLP Business Park Vienna demonstrates how to successfully navigate the evolving logistics and industrial real estate market. High-quality, sustainable buildings, strong transport links and flexible space solutions are becoming increasingly important. Following a comprehensive market analysis, Padeldome selected MLP Business Park Vienna. We are pleased to have identified the right location for a key milestone in the development of padel. We would also like to thank MLP Group and Court One GmbH for their constructive and collaborative approach, which is essential for the success of such projects.”

MLP Business Park Vienna comprises four buildings with a total leasable area of around 54,500 sq m, offering flexible units for logistics, e-commerce and light industrial uses. The development includes environmental features such as photovoltaic systems and green roofs, alongside planned recreational areas.

The park is located approximately 13 km from the centre of Vienna, with direct access to the S2 and A23 motorways and connections to public transport.
