Madrid’s newest municipal summer pool in Tetuán is officially open for the 2026 season, offering a refreshing escape as the first rays of May sunshine arrive. Located at the Paseo de la Dirección Municipal Sports Center (number 165), this is the district’s first outdoor municipal pool and the latest addition to the city’s aquatic facilities. Opened on May 15 with a free open day, the pool will welcome visitors until September 6, 2026.

The Tetuán summer pool boasts a main pool measuring 25 x 25 meters, complemented by a secondary circular splash pool with a 7-meter diameter for younger children. The facilities span 1,400 square meters and include changing rooms and relaxation areas. Additionally, the CDM Playa Victoria pool in Tetuán features a solarium area that is also accessible during the summer season.

Access Control and Dynamic Capacity
Capacity is linked to the service’s time slots. Access is controlled by staff at the sports centers who scan QR codes and verify the application of discounts where applicable. To optimize available spaces, this season will again feature QR code checks upon exit, enabling a dynamic capacity system. This system allows for the release of tickets from users who leave the pool before their session ends, making more spots available for others.
