Drive up, jump out, dive in! The Southland Aquatic Centre – Splash Palace – is one of the top public pool facilities in New Zealand. The indoor aquatic centre is within walking distance of the central business district and close to a large selection of motels and parks.

 

Facility Update

Our Learners Pool area will be temporarily closed during the April school holidays, as we undertake some maintenance work in this part of our facility.

We will be replacing some broken tiles, and also undertaking some painting within this part of the pool. This will be the first time this type of work has been carried out in the Learners Pool area, since opening in 2005.

We try to keep our facility running without interruption as much as possible while undertaking maintenance work, but in this case it’s simply not possible. This work is better completed while the pool area is closed, to ensure maintenance can be completed within the tight timeframe of the holiday period. Our school holiday programme will not be running during this time.

Our Main Pool and Leisure Pool will remain open during this time, and there will be no changes to Splash Palace’s opening hours.

We thank you for your patience as we undertake this work.

 

Temporary Change to Facility Hours

Due to staff sickness, we need to close Splash Palace early on Friday 28 March to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Our facility will be closing at 5.30pm instead of 9pm.

We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and continued support.
