Brisbane City Council has 22 swimming pools across the city which provide opportunities for fun, fitness and recreation. Visit a Council pool to cool off, relax, enjoy water play, or improve your fitness with lap swimming or a group fitness class. 

Swim more for less this summer with $2 pool entry (from 1 December) to Brisbane public pools. Dip, dip hooray for $2 Summer Dips!

While Council owns the 22 pools, private operators/lessees manage each pool. Pool facilities differ between venues and pool opening hours may vary between venues and seasons. View individual pool pages for detailed information.

Queensland Government Companion Card

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

Water safety

When you're at a public pool, Keep Watch to keep your child/ren safe around water. To be water safe, follow these steps.

  1. Be alert.
  2. Supervise your children around water.
  3. Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
  4. Follow the pool's conditions of entry.

Council endorses the Royal Life Saving Society's Keep Watch program.

Pool etiquette

Think of other pool users and choose the swim lane most suitable for your swim speed and purpose.
