Take a look at our list of all pools opening in Philadelphia this summer, along with details about their swimming schedules and seasonal events.

Philadelphia 2024 public pool opening schedule

All of Philadelphia Parks & Recreation’s 60 pools will open this summer. Despite an ongoing nationwide lifeguard shortage, pools have begun opening and will continue to open. It’s best to head right to the Philadelphia Parks & Rec site to see if your local pool is opening this year, and what the hours are! The following pools will not open for 2024 pool season:  Amos Pool, Baker Pool, CB Moore Pool, Cohen (Hillside) Pool, Cohox Pool, F.J. Myers Pool, Kingsessing Pool, McVeigh Pool, Sample Pool, and Ziehler Pool.

All pools will offer free swim lessons for children. They’ll also host mandatory swim lessons for more than 6,000 summer campers. Use the Parks & Rec Finder app to find out information about lessons and locate your neighborhood pool.
