The popular Splash Park in Promenade Gardens, St Annes, will reopen for the season on Saturday 5 April.

First opened in 2019, the Splash water play area has proven immensely popular with local and visiting families and offers a fantastic range of features including spray loops, water sprays, bucket drops, water domes and a small section for paddling.

Councillor Jayne Nixon, Lead Member for Tourism, Leisure and Culture at Fylde Council, commented: “We’re thrilled to welcome families back to the Splash Park for another summer season.

‘’The facility has become a beloved destination for residents and visitors alike, and we’re all hoping for a warm summer to make the most of our water facilities and create more happy memories this year.”

The Splash Park is designed for children aged 3-12 years and will be open from 10:00am until 4:00pm, 7 days a week, from April to September.

The facility offers five hourly sessions daily, which can be booked online or upon entry, including weekly sessions for children with disabilities and special educational needs.

For the 2025 season, the entry fee will be £2 per child for up to one hour of play. The revenue from this charge will contribute towards the ongoing costs of operating the Splash Park and ensuring its continued sustainability.
