SYDNEY’S MOST MEMORABLE VENUE

An event your guests
won't stop talking about

Love Pickle Club Manly is unlike any function room in the city. Set in a restored heritage gymnasium at North Head Sanctuary, it pairs eleven championship courts with a beer garden, café, social deck and mezzanine lounge — and a team who run the whole thing for you. Whether it’s a corporate day, a milestone birthday, a school group or a full-blown tournament, pickleball is the great leveller: everyone plays, everyone laughs, no experience required.
