With the opening of the new swimming pool, a new chapter begins for Ieper's swimmers, schools, associations, and recreational visitors. The date of Saturday, April 24 remains subject to unforeseen circumstances during the final construction phase.
During the Easter holidays, the familiar pool will remain open. In the second week of the Easter holidays, from April 5 to April 11, the sports department, together with partners, is organizing an activity week that includes a film screening, a swim night, a kayak polo tournament, and even dog swimming.
From Monday, April 12 to Thursday, April 22, 2027, both swimming pools will be closed due to the relocation and preparation of operations in the new building. This period is necessary to manage the move effectively and make the new facility ready for use.
The old swimming pool building, which is in poor structural condition, will be demolished to make space for future development of the sports site. The specific plans for this will be investigated later.
