East Kildonan has a fun new hangout, and it’s perfect for hot days!

The new spray pad at Bronx Park Community Centre is finally open, and families are already loving it. Located at 720 Henderson Highway, this new splash spot is great for kids to run around, cool off, and just have fun outside—all without spending a cent.

The spray pad has a bunch of colourful water sprayers, a soft, non-slip surface, and lots of open space to play. There’s also some shade nearby and easy access to bathrooms, so it’s super convenient for parents too.

Here’s what people are enjoying:

  • Fun water features for all ages

  • Free admission (yes, totally free!)

  • Chill spots for parents to sit and watch

  • A nearby park and green space for extra playtime

Spray pads like this are open daily from 9:30 AM to 8:30 PM, as long as the weather’s good. It’s part of the City of Winnipeg’s network of free summer spray pads, so families can check out a few different ones all summer long.

Bronx Park is already a popular place for local events and activities, so adding a spray pad just makes it even better. Kids can hit the splash area, then head over to the playground or have a little picnic on the grass.
