Baltimore Recreation & Parks announces that city pools are open for the summer and select permits are now being issued for outdoor gatherings at city parks.

Outdoor Pool Registration Now Open

This summer admission is free for Baltimore City outdoor pools, including Patterson Park Public Pool located at 148 S Linwood Ave inside the park. Guest must register online or by phone to secure a pool reservation. Reservations are required to allow for contact tracing by the Baltimore City Health Department. If capacity is not reached, the pool staff will accept walk-up registration after a 15-minute grace period. Each guest can reserve a maximum of 4 spaces. Each pool session is 90 minutes with 30 minutes breaks in between for cleaning.

Park Permits Now Available

BCRP is now permitting park pavilion rentals for events. All permits are at 50% capacity per permit and space, not to exceed 250 people (whichever is less). Applications can be submitted online (https://bit.ly/3wAUJ5M) and by email at park.permits@baltimorecity.gov.  Other new issue permits include Vending, Wedding, and Programming.
