Summer Season Opening Day

The wait is over… Cheltenham Lido reopens for the 2026 season - and we’re marking the occasion in true historic style.

For one day only, entry will be just 2p, a nod to our original admission price when the Lido first opened. A chance to celebrate our heritage while diving into a brand-new season of swimming, community and unforgettable moments by the water.

And that’s not all…
🎺 Enjoy the uplifting sounds of a live silver band
💦 Be wowed by a special synchronised swimming performance by Almost Synchro

Whether you’re taking the first plunge of the year or soaking up the atmosphere from poolside, Opening Day is always one of the most memorable days in the Lido calendar.

Bring your friends, wrap up warm, and join us for this one-of-a-kind start to the 2026 season!
