Jump in, GR! Free youth pool passes are back for summer 2026

Summer is almost here, and we’ve got great news to kick it off: free outdoor pool passes are back for Grand Rapids youth! Kids and teens ages 17 and under can grab their free season pass now through Memorial Day. Just hop over to grparks.info/poolpass26 to get registered.

We’re excited to keep providing safe, fun spaces for families all summer long.  This year brings a few new updates, including optional ID-linked passes and easy pick-up nights at all three pools. Adult and nonresident passes will also be available starting May 26.

Pools and splash pads open June 6, so now’s the perfect time to get ready for a great summer in the water. Let’s make a splash, Grand Rapids!
