Madrid & London, 11 August 2026 – The first official event of Hexagon World Series (HWS) has been confirmed as the GENERALI Hexagon Cup Madrid, taking place from 21–24 January 2027. Hosted once again at Madrid’s iconic Caja Mágica, the event will mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter for padel as the first fully sanctioned Teams event within the new global Series.
Madrid will open the international padel season in 2027 with an event that will bring together the world’s best male and female players, alongside teams and owners from the worlds of sport and entertainment, building on the identity that has defined Hexagon Cup since its inception in 2023 under the motto “For the Fans. For the Players. For the Game.”
The 2027 edition will also carry special significance as it becomes the starting point for the Hexagon World Series, the new professional team padel circuit governed by the International Padel Federation (FIP) and developed as the global expansion of the Hexagon Cup.
The international scale and ambition of Hexagon World Series, together with the work required to build a robust and sustainable structure across multiple markets, has led the organisation to move the official launch of the competition to January 2027 and reshape the calendar originally planned for 2026.
Over recent months, Hexagon, together with 54, FIP, Premier Padel and its wider group of stakeholders, has continued to develop the sporting, operational and commercial foundations of the project. This additional preparation period will strengthen the platform on which Hexagon World Series will be launched.
In the coming months, further information will be shared on the teams, players and expansion of the schedule, including the additional international destinations already identified to complete the 2027 calendar. The move from five to four competition days reflects an updated event format for next season, with full details of the sporting structure to be revealed in the coming weeks.
Sergio Lewin, Co-Founder and Operations & Sporting Managing Director of Hexagon Cup: “We are delighted that Madrid will mark the beginning of this new journey. Hexagon World Series represents a highly ambitious evolution of everything we started with Hexagon Cup. Building an international circuit of this scale takes time, a strong foundation and close collaboration between many different stakeholders. Madrid is where it all began, and we couldn’t imagine a better place to officially launch this new chapter in January 2027.”
About Hexagon World Series
Hexagon World Series is the first official professional team padel circuit governed by the International Padel Federation (FIP). It was born as the evolution of Hexagon Cup, the innovative team tournament launched in 2023 under the motto “For the Fans. For the Players. For the Game”, co-created through a strategic collaboration with 54, the global sports and entertainment agency. Since 2026, it has been part of the official FIP calendar, expanding its format into multiple international events in iconic cities around the world with its first full season in 2027, offering equal prize money for male and female players and a top-tier sporting and entertainment experience.
Hexagon World Series forms part of the global structure of the International Padel Federation alongside Premier Padel and the Cupra FIP Tour, contributing to the worldwide growth and professionalisation of the sport. Since its creation, Hexagon Cup has successfully held three editions in Madrid. AD/vantage Padel Team, backed by Andy Murray, Anthony Joshua, Arran Yentob and Dani Vallverdu, have won twice (2024 and 2026), while KRÜ Padel by Taktika, led by Sergio “Kun” Agüero, and the Taktika Padel group managed by Gabriel Pérez and Edu Conde, claimed the title in 2025.
