More public pickleball courts for Burbank

A petition from Burbank residents to the Burbank City Council.

Where can I play pickleball in Burbank?

As of October 2026, Burbank has 4 public courts dedicated to pickleball, at Maxam Park. Players also share 8 courts lined on Izay Park's tennis courts, play indoors at the Olive Recreation Center by reservation, or pay to play at the city-owned Burbank Tennis Center. By Pickleball's Case for Court Parity, the city needs about 24 dedicated public courts.
