Philadelphia Parks & Recreation worked hard to open and staff outdoor public pools this summer. These pools provide residents with a free place to cool down and have fun. 

As summer winds down, pools will begin to close for the 2024 season. Pools will close on a rolling basis starting on Thursday, August 15, through Monday, September 2.  

See the 2024 closing dates below. Generally, pools will close at the end of the day on the date listed.
