Council pools

For information on the easing of restrictions from 1am on Friday 22 January 2021, read the Updates to Council facilities, services and public transport operations community service announcement.

There are 22 Council swimming pools across Brisbane offering opportunities for fun, fitness and recreation. Visit a Council pool to cool off, relax, enjoy water play, swim laps, attend a fitness class, learn to swim, improve your swim stroke or join a swimming club.

Pools are owned by Council, but managed by private operators who can assist with information about the facilities and activities offered.

Pool facilities vary between venues and pool open hours may vary between seasons. View individual pool pages for detailed information.

Council endorses the Royal Life Saving Society's Keep Watch program which aims to prevent children drowning.

All Council pools now honour the Queensland Government Companion Card, allowing free entry for anyone accompanying a person with disability who requires attendant care support.
