LIDO OPENING PETERBOROUGH

It's time to take a dip in Peterborough's wonderful outdoor Lido and you can celebrate the launch of the new season with a half price swim.

Peterborough Lido kicks off an exciting season of heated outdoor swimming on Saturday May 24, and to celebrate you can swim on opening day for half the normal price!

Whether you’re a serious swimmer or looking for a fun day out with family and friends, the Lido has something for you. Open seven days a week, there’s a 50m main pool, smaller children’s pool, large grass area, sunbathing terraces and an on-site café.

Special events and activities throughout the season include midnight swims, summer solstice swims, special student swims, yoga and wellbeing sessions, aqua fit classes, open air theatre and the ever-popular end of season dog swims.

The Lido team told us: “We can’t wait to open our doors for the season and look forward to welcoming both our regular swimmers and new visitors, some who come from far and wide. We know many have been patiently waiting for opening day, so we thought we would kick off with a half price swim and hope to see as many people as possible.

“New for 2025, regular visitors can buy a special Lido pass of 10, 20 or 40 swims to save money on swimming throughout the season. You can buy these online or from any Vivacity venue.”

You're advised to book online or on the Vivacity app to avoid disappointment. Sessions on the opening day run from 9am to 1.15pm and from 1.45pm to 6pm.
