With the arrival of the French Olympics the eyes of the entire world are focused on France and more especially Paris... How exiting!
And it means the arrival of new basketball players in Paris. We want to help them to find the best playgrounds to play on or to visit!
Among basketball lovers, visiting french playgrounds is a must.
You'll see that there are countless playgrounds open to the public. But some are really a must go! Some are more appealing than others, due to their position, the view they offer, their architecture, etc.
We invite you to discover the 10 most beautiful basketball playgrounds in the city of Paris.
14th, rue Paturle: Paris Blue Basketball Courts


One of the first playgrounds to feature a touch of aesthetics to compensate for the usual grayness of the asphalt, this playground with shades of blue does not fail to charm basketball fans from the 14th arrondissement and even beyond.
The covering is starting to deteriorate in places but remains very comfortable to play. It is also accessible 24/7.
We hope to see you there soon!
Charles Moureu Center Playground

The central court with its plexiglass basket is the sanctuary of the sharpest ballers.
One of the most famous and legendary playgrounds in the city, without a doubt.
Recently upgraded, this court is one of the best place to play on... with some serious ballers too...
77 quai Branly - Bir Hakeim


Not far from the Bir-Hakeim metro station, a very beautiful complex with 3 baskets and the Eiffel Tower as a horizon.
This is the right spot to take your camera and immortalize your best dunks or spectacular actions. Definitely one of the best playground panorama of the world...
(Yeah we're french 😅)
Make sure to make a TikTok there or share a post on BEBALLER basketball app! (yes, we're promoting our product a little)
Hoops Factory - Paris-Villette

Even though it's not actually outdoors, this court is so attractive that it's worth the detour. Real floor, plexiglass board, you'll feel like a pro inside!
This is also the place that BEBALLER chose to introduce its app dedicated to basketball players and fans!
Saint-Martin Canal Playground - Jemmapes Aka @le_144


Want to experience basketball the American way?
This playground is directly inspired by New York playgrounds.
Narrow dimensions favoring contact, skatepark in the background, fence in place of the 3-point line!
Prepare yourself for tough plays, the ballers there play to win and if you're not up to the level you'll receive some trashtalk... French manners 🫡 !
Playground Duperré, near Pigalle metro


Nicknamed the “Instagram Playground”, this playground has seen more photoshoots than pickup games 😅.
One of the most famous Paris basketball court around the world
So prepare your most beautiful outfit, your most intense look and your camera!
Clearly the playground with the most impressive graphics. An anthology of colors and design, to the delight of basketball lovers.
9 rue Charlemagne, playground Saint-Paul

This playground is in the beating heart of Paris.
There are basketball players of all ages, and especially all levels. Rookies or budding pro, you will love playing on this playground.
The unobstructed view of the Saint-Paul parish gives a very special splendor to this place. Be careful, the stone and the white reflections make it very difficult to endure during periods of high heat! Yes... BEBALLER also thinks about your well being...
Paul Meurice sports center grounds

A semi-covered area. Brand new covering and baskets, plexi boards, accessible to all. What best can you expect?
However, be careful of the wind which tends to rush into the uncovered part.
Overall a very pleasant playground!
If the semi-covered area is taken, there are two outdoor areas left. The quality of the baskets needs to be reviewed (poor height, no nets) but they help when there are too many people on the "main court".
Playground Stalingrad

The revival of a legendary land.
Stalingrad went from glory to desertion... and finally to salvation with its recent renovation thanks in particular to the intervention of the sports oasis association.
Adored by some who experienced the golden age of this playground and seen in horror by others who knew it in a completely different era when drugs invaded the environment. Today it is experiencing a welcome second wind for ballers in the neighborhood and throughout Panama.
It is an underground area therefore, both figuratively and literally since it is located under the rails of line 2 of the Stalingrad metro.
Surrounded by busy streets and businesses, it is a lively place in which you come to play not for the calm... but for the noise!
Dr. Calmette's Playground


To finish in style, here is the terrain of Doctor Calmette created by the artist that you will find on Instagram under the name @Worldofpolar
The artist's work is very successful but unfortunately is already starting to fade.
This field remains very pleasant to play with its official 3x3 baskets and dimensions.
You will always find people on this court, so go for it!
Bonus Playground: Playground Porte de Charenton

The "Porte de Charenton" playground is known to all the local ballers who come for the challenge and the special atmosphere that reigns there.
Although it is not particularly decorated, it has however been recently renovated and benefits from new flooring and official 3x3 baskets which give it a nice facelift!
Goal: Make it to the "1st court" squatted by the regulars. You'll have to show that you deserve your place, everything we love at BEBALLER... Note to the underdogs..!
