All Blue Mountains Leisure and Aquatic Centres will be open on both Boxing Day and January 26, 2026, offering free pool entry to all residents and visitors.

The centres across Glenbrook, Springwood, Lawson, Katoomba and Blackheath will welcome the community to enjoy a swim, relax and connect with friends and family during the holiday season.

Blue Mountains Mayor Mark Greenhill said: “We’re excited to offer free pool entry on Boxing Day and January 26 as a special way of giving back to the Blue Mountains community.

“These facilities are a great place for families and friends to come together, unwind and celebrate the festive season.

“We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy a refreshing swim.

“This community-focused offering supports local families and visitors looking to cool off, recharge after Christmas Day or make the most of the long weekend.”
