Summer is starting to make its presence felt in Seville. At least as far as rising temperatures are concerned. Spring, which has been mild in Seville until this week, is whetting our appetite for trips to the beach. And the big question every year: when do the municipal swimming pools in Seville open?
The Seville City Council, through the Municipal Sports Institute (IMD), has already outlined some details of the 2026 Summer Campaign to combat high temperatures in the neighborhoods.
Calendar and opening hours for recreational swimming
To facilitate access to public swimming as well as summer camps, in 2025 the Rochelambert, Torre Blanca, and Alcosa Sports Centers, along with the Tiro de Línea municipal pool, opened their doors on June 21.
Following the trend of opening earlier, it is possible that Seville’s public pools will open around Saturday the 20th this year.
However, for 2026, it has already been confirmed that the various facilities of the IMD in Seville and their respective pools will open a little later: from Tuesday, June 23, through September 6. This has been confirmed by El Correo de Andalucía.
As for the hours, the sports centers are extending them considerably and will be open starting at 8:00 a.m. With the exception, however, of San Pablo, which opens at 7:30 a.m. On weekdays, they will close at 10:30 p.m.
On Saturdays, hours will be from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. (San Pablo and Hytasa from 9:00 a.m.). Additionally, Seville’s municipal pools will be open on Sundays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Another issue concerns ticket prices. If the 2025 rates are maintained, tickets would cost around €5; €3 for those over 5 years old and people with reduced mobility.
The big news for 2026: the Entreflores pool is opening
The main surprise for this summer season is the addition of a new aquatic facility. The Seville City Council has confirmed that the pool at the Entreflores Sports Center will be open during the months of July and August.
This special opening aims to offer a recreational swimming option to the city’s residents.
