From February 16-22, the 2026 Carvana Mesa Cup returned to Mesa, Arizona – just minutes from our headquarters in Tempe. As the title sponsor of the Professional Pickleball Association (PPA) Tour since the 2023 season, we were so excited to welcome players, fans, and the local community back to one of our favorite stops on the Tour.

Carvana’s partnership with the PPA Tour is about so much more than putting our name on the court. We’re here to bring energy to the stands, pull fans into the action, and drive unforgettable experiences.

In Mesa, that commitment came to life through the Carvana Activation Zone’s “Dink it Challenge”. Throughout the week participants of all ages and skill levels tested their touch by aiming a dink at a mini replica Carvana Vending Machine target for a chance to win a custom pickleball paddle.

The energy of the crowd that formed to cheer every perfect placement and lament every near-miss was electric!

Being part of the Carvana Mesa Cup is a reminder of why we’re so invested in this community. As America’s fastest-growing sport, pickleball has a special way of bringing people together, and the Carvana PPA Tour does that on a national stage, hosting professional tournaments across the country that unite top-ranked pros, amateurs, and fans all season long.

Thanks for a memorable week, Mesa. We’ll see you at the next stop on the tour!
