FREE Swimming Days at Wichita Pools

Sharing is caring!

I remember when I first heard about Wichita’s FREE swimming days! They have them for each of the city’s pools throughout the summer. Can you believe that?

City of Wichita Pools have been undergoing some changes and upgrades for the past few years. Some of them were turned into splash parks, but we still have six Wichita city swimming pools with free swimming days this summer!

The Wichita pools open this year on Memorial Day.

Pool Party!

Did you also know you can rent out a city pool for birthday parties and family get-togethers? It’s true! Some pools you can rent after regular hours, and at two of the pools you can have access during public swim times and reserve a private party area.

Season passes for Wichita swimming pools

A season pass allows you access to ALL of the City of Wichita pools for the summer – you can swim all you want!

2025 Season passes are only $70 per individual or $200 for a family of 4. It is $30 for an additional person up to 8 people. These can be purchased at OJ Watson Park or at any city pool.

Wichita City Pools coupon books

Coupon books are another way to save money on summer swimming. Pick up a book of 50 coupons for $110, or get 25 coupons for $60. One coupon admits one adult or  one child.

Purchase coupon books at O.J. Watson Park or at any city pool.
