🏊‍️ Hindmarsh Outdoor Pools 2026/2027 Season Plan

Hindmarsh Outdoor Pools in Jeparit, Nhill, Rainbow and Dimboola are planning to open on Saturday 21 November 2026 for the summer season!

We’ve made several changes to Hindmarsh Outdoor Pools’ services and policies for the upcoming season to ensure the pools remain sustainable and open when community utilises them the most. These changes include amended opening hours, changing the way we extend hours when it’s hot, improved communication and availability of information around pool opening times, and a closure day that enables planned maintenance of pool facilities.

A complete list of planned changes is available here: www.hindmarsh.vic.gov.au/Latest-News/Hindmarsh-Outdoor-Pools-20262027-Season

Thank you to everyone who provided feedback following the 2025/2026 season and helped us ensure that this service meets community expectations and is open when used the most. We can’t wait to see you at the pools in November!
