It’s no secret— this summer of 2026 is very hot. So rather than sweltering at home, why not head over to the 17th arrondissement! Since last Saturday, the arrondissement has opened a 100% free outdoor pool . It’s the perfect way to beat the heat without spending a penny!
A free swimming pool in Paris all summer long
This summer, through August 16, the Just Fontaine Stadium is opening the doors to its temporary outdoor pool for free. Open every day—sometimes even until 9 p.m.—the pool is constantly supervised by experienced lifeguards.

And let’s just say it right away: your summer is going to be active! Over the coming weeks, a variety of activities will be offered, including aqua aerobics classes, basketball, table tennis, and even archery. It’s sure to be a lot of fun!
Be aware, however, that although this large pool is free, you must wear a swim cap to swim laps there…
