The 2025 pre-season kicks off June 21 and 22!
Get ready to dive into more fun this summer in Sylvan Lake! Sylvan Lake Aqua Splash is back for the 2025 season with brand-new features, family-friendly fun, and plenty of reasons to plan your next day trip to the lake.
This popular floating water park has been a favorite for families across Alberta, and this summer it’s coming back bigger, better, and bouncier than ever! With lower lake levels this year, the team behind Aqua Splash has been busy creating new, exciting attractions built especially for these unique conditions.
“We have some exciting new components coming for lower water levels,” shares Aqua Splash owner Charlie Everest. “Watch for things like rope swings, a double rocker, and something called the Twisters. Just a whole bunch of fun stuff.”
These new additions will join the park’s existing lineup of up to 100 floating obstacles that challenge kids (and grown-ups!) to climb, jump, slide, balance, and bounce their way across the lake. Highlights include giant climbing slides, trampolines, monkey bars, launch bags, domes, and the towering “Iceberg” and “Multi-Climb Tower.” Whether you’re racing across speed corners or testing your skills on quarter pipes and zigzags, Aqua Splash is all about nonstop adventure!
Safety is key, and the park’s setup is no small feat. It takes over two weeks and more than 100 hours of scuba diving to secure each component to the lakebed using a mix of screw and concrete anchors. “Each component has to be tethered properly — safety is always the top priority,” says Everest.
Guests can also feel confident knowing Aqua Splash employs around 45 staff members throughout the season, including 10 to 12 certified lifeguards, with a minimum of five monitoring the park during peak hours.
Mark your calendars!
The 2025 pre-season weekend opening is set for June 21–22, before the park officially launches into daily operations on June 28. Aqua Splash will stay open through Labour Day, giving families plenty of time to enjoy the fun all summer long. And NEW this year: families can take advantage of a seasonal punch pass — get 6 visits for the price of 5!
On-shore fun will add even more excitement to your visit. Expect spontaneous giveaways like freezies, T-shirts, and game prizes, plus extra-special celebrations on holidays like Canada Day.
“Sometimes the best days to come are when it’s a little cooler,” Everest notes. “It’s not as busy, and the fun is still there.”
So pack your towels, gather your crew, and get ready to make a splash! Sylvan Lake Aqua Splash is your go-to summer daytrip destination for affordable, high-energy family fun.
