Parlando Open
Some things are worth coming back for.
The Parlando Open returns on June 26–28 at The Ranch and Broomfield Swim and Tennis Center for its second year, and if you were here last year, you already know what that means. If you weren't — this is your year.
Born out of Parlando School of Music's belief that music and community go hand in hand, the Parlando Open has grown into something bigger than a tennis tournament. It's a weekend where neighbors become competitors, competitors become friends, and everyone ends up on the patio together when the day is done.
This year we’re bringing back the best of 2025 and mixing in some new things for 2026. The Open Division highlights some of the best players in the region in fierce and entertaining competition. The 2.5 to 4.5 divisions offer teams the opportunity to accrue USTA points and grab one the summer’s coveted trophies. And the One-Point Slam is exactly what it sounds like: A winner take all, every point counts format where one great shot – or one untimely mistake – can flip everything. Three ways to compete. One weekend to do it all.
Evenings bring live music, mornings bring breakfast at Broomfield, and in between there's cold drinks, good people, and the kind of buzz that only comes from a community that's genuinely glad to be in the same place at the same time.
This is our second year. The community is bigger, the competition is sharper, and the weekend is going to be better than ever.
June 26–28. The Ranch and Broomfield Swim and Tennis Center. Welcome. Welcome Back. Let's play.
Friday Night Party
The Parlando Open doesn't wait until Saturday to get started.
Friday night is where the weekend truly begins — a kickoff party bringing together players, families, and the broader Parlando community before a single ball is struck. Expect live music, pasta, cold drinks, and the kind of loose, easy energy that only comes from a group of people who are genuinely excited about the two days ahead.
It's part welcome party, part pep rally, and completely worth showing up for. Come meet your competition, find your doubles partner on the dance floor, and get a feel for what this community is all about before the courts open Saturday morning.
Details on music, food, and ticketing coming soon.
Friday, June 26th. Don't miss the start of something great.

Saturday Night Party
Driven by curiosity and built on purpose, this is where bold thinking meets thoughtful execution. Let’s create something meaningful together.
Julie’s Program
Julie is Travis's sister. And music, she'll tell you, is her "favorite thing in the whole world."
For Julie, and for many people living with developmental and intellectual disabilities, or who are neurodiverse, music is more than entertainment. It's a way to communicate. A way to feel joy. A way to be part of something together.
Julie's Program was created to make sure more people in our community have access to exactly that.
Made possible in large part through an annual gift from The Ritter Family, Julie's Program provides music and theatrical programming designed to be accessible, inclusive, and genuinely engaging for people with different needs and abilities.
When you play in the Parlando Open, you're helping fund that work. Every registration, every raffle ticket, every match played on these courts contributes to a program that brings music, and everything that comes with it, to the people who deserve it most.
That's why we play.
All Things Tennis
One Point Slam
When they say that “every point counts,” this is exactly what they meant…
The One-Point Slam is a new addition the UNITE.rehab.perform Parlando Open. Sponsored by Conexus Insurance Partners, this is not a competition for the easily distracted. Players will play one point against each other. The winner moves on, the loser goes back to the viewing gallery.
No second chances. No coasting. No “I’ll make it back next game.”
Just pure, point-by-point tennis and the deeply satisfying feeling of knowing every win was earned the hard way…Unless your opponent opted to serve and double faults. Then you earned it the easy way. But you still move on!
Think you’ve got what it takes? Sign up and find out!
Open Division Doubles
In addition to providing great tennis for our viewing pleasure, Open Level players will be vying for CASH Prizes this year, thanks to sponsorship from Conexus Insurance Partners.
Open Level divisions are the same format as the rest of the tournament: Men’s, Women’s, and Mixed. Champions will split $500 and runners-up will split $250. AND – if you are one of the first 8 people to sign up in one of the Open Level divisions, your tournament registration fee will be refunded back to you at the beginning of the tournament.
That’s right: Play your cards – and your rallies – just right, and you can play for free and then get a cash PRIZE at the end!
2.5-4.5 Doubles
Every great doubles team has a story.
Maybe it's your longtime playing partner. Maybe it's your neighbor you've been meaning to get on the court with. Maybe it's whoever was willing to say yes when you asked. However you ended up together, the Doubles Tournament is where you find out what you're made of — as a team.
Two players, one court, and a weekend full of competition, cold drinks, and the kind of memories that are always better when someone else was there to share them.
Grab your partner. We'll see you out there.

This Year

The final day of the Parlando Open starts the right way. Breakfast at Broomfield is a warm, communal morning spread on day three where players, volunteers, and families fuel up, catch up, and get ready for one last day of competition. After two days of tennis, music, and memories, it's the moment that brings everyone back together before it all wraps up — good food, good people, and the quiet excitement of knowing the best is still ahead.
Come hungry. Leave ready.

The Parlando Open raffle is back — and this year the prize pool is stacked. Raffle tickets are available throughout the weekend, giving every player, volunteer, and spectator a shot at walking away with something worth talking about. You don't have to win a match to win big. Details on prizes and ticket pricing will be announced soon, but if last year was any indication, you won't want to wait until the last minute to grab your tickets.
Stay tuned.

The Parlando Open runs on the energy of its community — and that includes the volunteers who make the whole weekend possible. From checking in players and managing the courts to helping with food, music, and everything in between, volunteers are the backbone of this event. If you want to be part of something special without picking up a racquet, this is your way in. Please contact paralndoopen@gmail.com if you’re interested.
We'd love to have you.

Sponsor Spotlight
The Parlando Open doesn't happen without the people who believe in it — and for the second year in a row, Unite has been at the front of that list.
Based in Thornton and built by athletes for athletes, Unite is Denver's premier sports physical therapy and performance training facility. They help athletes and active adults return to sport pain free, optimize how they move, and build bodies that are stronger and more resilient than ever — whether that means recovering from an injury, pushing performance to the next level, or simply staying on the court longer. It's a mission that fits the Parlando Open perfectly.
As our title sponsor for the second year running, Unite's support goes far beyond a logo on a banner. It's a genuine investment in a community of people who love to compete, love to move, and love showing up for each other. We are incredibly grateful to have them in our corner — and if you're a player who wants to keep playing for years to come, we'd encourage you to check them out at here.
Sponsor Spotlight
We are thrilled to welcome Conexus Insurance as the proud sponsor of the One-Point Slam for the 2026 Parlando Open.
A full-service, independent insurance agency based in Westminster, Colorado, Conexus has been a trusted presence in the Denver north metro area for over 60 years. But what sets them apart isn't just their experience — it's their philosophy. Conexus is a people-first organization, committed to doing right by their clients, employees, and community, creating real connections that make them feel less like a vendor and more like a partner. If that sounds familiar, it's because it's exactly what the Parlando Open is built on too.
Through their Conexus Cares program, they actively partner with nonprofits and community organizations throughout the year — so it's no surprise they found a home here. Sponsoring the One-Point Slam isn't just a business decision for Conexus. It's a reflection of who they are. We are incredibly grateful to have them as part of this weekend, and we'd encourage anyone looking for an insurance partner who genuinely puts people first to visit them here.
