Seasonal Park Washrooms and Drinking Fountains Open!

City crews have been actively working since early-April and most seasonal park washrooms and attached water fountains are now open. Over the next month, standalone drinking water fountains, bottle-filling stations and dog bowls in parks will be activated, followed by the opening of splash pads and pools.

Park washrooms are open daily from 9:00am to 10:00pm. Be sure to check the status of washrooms and fountains before heading out at toronto.ca/ParkWashrooms 

City crews are continuously working to activate splash pads and outdoor pools. Splash and spray pads are expected to open for the season on Saturday, May 17. Early opening of 15 outdoor pools on evenings and weekends is scheduled for Saturday, June 14 and remaining pools will follow on Saturday, June 21. 

Check the status of your local park washrooms and fountains on the City’s Park & Recreation Washrooms & Drinking Water webpage.
