Launch dates announced for two popular Walsall splash pads but Bloxwich venue won't open

Walsall Council has announced the return of the popular Arboretum splash pad, just in time for summer.

Starting from Saturday May 23 until Sunday August 31 the pads at Walsall Arboretum will be open daily for everyone to enjoy.

Willenhall Memorial Park’s Splash Pad will also open during the same dates.

The attraction in Walsall Arboretum features a range of water features, including fountains, water cannons and spray jets - there is also a playground and lake with pedal boats within the grounds as well as a skate park and table tennis facility.

Willenhall Memorial Park, on Pinson Road, has a play area, multi-use games area, skate park and outdoor gym plus an enclosed dog area.

But there will be no opening for the splash pads at King George V Park in Stafford Road, Bloxwich which will not re-open this year due to ongoing improvement works.
