Newcastle’s public swimming pools will turn into inflatable playgrounds later this summer, with Newcastle Pools announcing the return of its popular Inflatable Days program across February and March.
Designed as a family-friendly series of events, the initiative will roll through four local centres, offering three hours of inflatable fun each Sunday as the warmer months wind down.
Beyond the fun factor, the program is aimed at promoting active lifestyles and encouraging families to make the most of Newcastle’s public aquatic facilities. Past Inflatable Days have drawn strong crowds, transforming local pools into lively community hubs filled with colour, movement and summer energy.
Inflatable Days are included with standard pool admission, making them an accessible option for families looking for affordable entertainment close to home. No bookings are required, with Newcastle Pools encouraging locals to simply turn up and dive in.
The inflatables are suitable for children aged six years and over, while younger children can continue to use designated areas of the pools under supervision.
Newcastle Inflatable Days’ dates and locations
The program kicks off on Sunday, 22 February at Mayfield Swimming Pool, before moving to Wallsend Swimming Pool on 1 March, Lambton Swimming Centre on 8 March, and wrapping up at Beresfield Swimming Pool on 15 March. Each event runs from 11.00am to 2.00pm, giving families a dedicated window to enjoy the inflatables alongside regular pool facilities.
