Javea Feral Cat Association returns with its 5th annual padel tournament

THIS October, the vibrant community of Javea will gather for a unique blend of sporting competition and charitable fun. The Javea Feral Cat Association is proud to host its 5th Annual Padel Tournament and Family Festival, taking place over two days at the Club de Padel Paris 24 on Saturday, October 3, and Sunday, October 4, 2026. This significant milestone marks half a decade of community celebration, all dedicated to raising funds and awareness for the association’s mission of caring for local feral cat populations.

Purr-fect padel: action on the padel courts

The centrepiece of the weekend is, of course, the highly popular Padel Tournament. Courts will be busy with teams competing throughout the Saturday and Sunday, offering players of all levels a chance to enjoy the fast-paced game in a positive environment of friendly competition.

Family Festival and community stalls

The event, with free entry starting at 12:00pm on Sunday, will be a full-scale Family Festival, featuring a variety of community attractions. Special guests, the Royal British Legion Javea Branch, will also make a cameo at the event.

Visitors can browse several stalls, including Cortado’s delicious Cake Stall, Carol’s flavourful Jams and Pickles, and the entertaining Games Stall. For those interested in getting directly involved with the cause, a Volunteer stand will provide information, and registered feeders can conveniently pick up a complimentary bag of cat food. A fully open bar, along with a tempting snacks and lunch menu, will ensure a comfortable and enjoyable day.

Live entertainment and trophy presentation

Sunday afternoon’s entertainment is set to impress, with Mick Dennison as DJ and Master of Ceremonies and Ian Hunt as Singer and Entertainer. At 5:00pm, Rosa Cardona, the Mayor of Javea, will present the trophies to the padel tournament winners. This will be followed by the excitement of the Luxury Raffle Draw at 6:00pm.

Those who are interested in donating, playing games at the event, or simply are looking for something new to do over the weekend of October 3 and 4 should not miss this opportunity to enjoy a fun social event and support a worthy cause.
