*Editors Note:Arlington Parks & Recreation staff in coordination with the Arlington Police Department and the approval of City Council on Tuesday, June 23, 2020, will be adjusting Stovall Park’s closing time.

This new closure window will be in effect July 1 through July 31, 2020.
This new closing effects Bad Königshofen Family Aquatic Center’s Wednesday hours as well as evening pool party rentals Thursday through Saturday in July. Bad Königshofen’s new Wednesday hours are now 1-3 p.m., 3:30-5:30 p.m., and 6-8 p.m. As of now, this new adjustment is in effect for July, after July staff will reassess and make changes as needed.
Please note, the information below is subject to change at any time as new information and resources become available.
In accordance with Governor Greg Abbott’s plan to reopen Texas, Arlington Parks & Recreation will start offering private pool party rentals Sunday, July 5, 2020. To prepare for pool rentals opening, Arlington Aquatics will host a Pool Rental Day Friday, June 26, 2020 where people can call to start reserving private pool parties.
At this time, due to social distancing in place which requires the use of the entire pool facility, Arlington Aquatics will not be offering pavilion rentals during public hours. Once social distancing rules are lifted, pavilion rentals will be able to be offered.
Pool party rentals are available Thursday through Sunday for private parties, family gatherings, reunions, etc. Times vary depending on the pools’ operating hours. Lifeguards are provided for all rentals. Fee includes up to the maximum number of guests listed and a two-hour rental. A 72-hour notice is required to book an outdoor pool. Changes or cancellations to pool reservations are subject to a $50 administrative fee.
Pool party rentals are available Thursday through Sunday in the morning before opening hours at all pools that are not offering swim lessons and, in the evenings, following last swim after sanitation shutdown is complete. Hours vary based on days of the week and pool. Please note some hours have changed from previous years based on the new 2020 pool operating hours.
