Vancouver’s scenic Kitsilano Pool is gearing up for a grand reopening. The Vancouver Park Board has announced that this beloved outdoor saltwater pool will open on Sunday, June 4. Repair teams are currently wrapping up their work, actively filling cracks and testing mechanical systems that a January 2022 storm damaged. Kitsilano Pool Opens June 4th.
The cool, wet conditions this spring delayed necessary repairs to Kitsilano Pool, requiring at least 10 consecutive days of dry, warm weather to ensure the fixes properly cured and set. Work finally commenced in late April. Once it reopens, Kits Pool will offer 2½-hour swim sessions throughout the day. Due to expected high demand, the Park Board recommends that swimmers pre-register online via Showpass. Reservations for swimming times open at 12 p.m., three days prior to the desired date. While the pool does accommodate drop-ins, securing a spot cannot be guaranteed.
In the meantime, both New Brighton and Second Beach pools are already open and welcoming guests. Maple Grove and Hillcrest pools are set to join them, opening on June 15. Prepare to dive into summer at Kitsilano Pool starting June 4th and relish one of Vancouver’s most beautiful aquatic settings. Kitsilano Pool Opens June 4th.
