The City of Manhattan announced their Splash Park opens Friday, May 8, for the 2026 season, giving families a fun way to cool off after school and enjoy the spring weather.

The fun continues later this month, with Manhattan Park and Recreation Waterparks opening on Saturday, May 23 as summer activities begin to ramp up across the city. Now is a great time to start planning for the full aquatics season by purchasing a season pass, registering for swimming lessons, exploring junior lifeguarding classes, or getting involved in aquatic exercise classes.
