Leisure operators are being invited to help transform one of Fylde most loved destinations, as Fylde Council opens its formal tender for a padel and tennis concession at Fairhaven Lake and Gardens.
The new opportunity includes two to three padel courts alongside the site’s two existing full-size tennis courts, giving one operator the chance to bring the whole lakeside facility to life as a single destination for racket sports.
Councillor Jayne Nixon, Lead Member for Tourism and Leisure, said: “This is a brilliant opportunity to bring padel and tennis together in one place at Fairhaven.
‘’We want to see innovative, ambitious operators come forward with proposals that make the most of this wonderful location, delivering a modern, vibrant sports facility that residents and visitors will genuinely love.”
The tender is now live. Interested operators can download the tender documentation chest (reference DN825563) via fylde.gov.uk. All tenders should be submitted by 12pm on Monday 12 October.
