Main Pool Hall to reopen Monday 11 August

August 8, 2025

Updated 8 August, 1pm

Great news! PARC’s Main Pool Hall is reopening early on Monday 11 August

We’re thrilled to share that the Main Pool Hall will reopen one week earlier than planned, on Monday 11 August!

Thanks to a smooth and speedy installation of our brand-new boiler system, we’ve been able to bring the reopening forward and get you back in the water sooner.

We’re reopening one full week earlier than planned thanks to the early arrival of parts and the smooth installation and commissioning of our new 600-kilowatt boiler. This upgraded system will provide more consistent heating across our pools and showers.

SERVICES:

What’s reopening on Monday 11 August?

50m Pool – lap swimming, PARC Swim, Aqua classes and user groups return
Learn to Swim Pool – PARC Swim returns
Waterslides – fun is back!
Showers – are hot and flowing
Café – back to normal hours (8am – 7pm weekdays, 8am – 5pm weekends)

What’s reopening later?

Aquatic Playground – repaint works remain on track to finish in time for planned reopen on Saturday 16 August
Sauna – The Sauna is closed for tiling upgrades,

What’s already open?
All other areas of the Centre, including the Warm Water Pool, Spa, Gym, Reformer Studio, and Group Exercise Rooms, continue to operate as normal.

What does this mean for me?

I’m a Full Access or an Aquatic Access Member

We are back to normal operations from Monday 11 August.
Lap swimming is back!
Showers are hot.
If your suspension was due to end on 18 August and you wish to come back sooner, please email member.experience@peninsulaleisure.com.au or call 03 9781 8444.

I’m a PARC Swim Member

All PARC Swim lessons, in both the 50m and Learn to Swim Pools, are back from Monday 11 August.
PARC Swim members were not charged for the period of the closure.

I’m part of a User Group

We are working with our main group contacts directly.
Please look out for communications from your group as to when sessions are back at PARC.

Thank you for your understanding

We’d like to thank you all for your patience and support during this important boiler replacement. We know these pool closures have been disruptive, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to a warmer, more comfortable PARC!

If you have any questions, please get in touch with us at member.experience@peninsulaleisure.com.au
