Beat the heat with splash pads and cooling centres now open in Brampton
Published June 2, 2023 at 9:01 am
Brampton is under a heat warning for the second day in a row but the City has more ways for you to keep your cool when temperatures rise.
Environment Canada has issued another heat warning for Brampton and says to expect a daytime high of up to 32º C on Friday (June 2). Temperatures will bit a bit overnight to the high teens before cooler temperatures return on Saturday.
But those looking for a break from the heat wave can get some relief at one of the City’s splash pads, pools or cooling centres.
Splash pads and wading pools
Splash pads in Brampton are now open from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. every day, weather permitting, with over a dozen splash pads across the city.
The Chinguacousy Park Wading Pool will also be open on the weekends starting on Saturday and will open daily for the season on June 29.
