Cultus Lake Waterpark Is Reopening This Summer

It’s that time again—BC’s biggest waterpark is coming back just in time for the summer heat. If you grew up anywhere in the Lower Mainland, chances are you’ve screamed down a waterslide at Cultus Lake Waterpark, and 2025 is serving up another splash-worthy season.

Originally launched in 1984 by a local family (yup, still family-owned), Destination Cultus has become a summer rite of passage for thousands of British Columbians every year. It includes two massive parks—the waterpark and the neighbouring Cultus Lake Adventure Park, which is already open for the season.

But let’s be real, we’ve all been holding out for the waterpark. And now, the wait is officially over.

Cultus Lake Waterpark 2025 Opening Date + Promo Deal

This year, the waterpark opens its gates on Saturday, June 7th. It’ll run weekends only until June 21st, and then switch to daily operations through Labour Day (September 1st).

Tickets and VIP cabana rentals will be available for purchase starting May 3rd. While specific discounts haven’t been announced yet, it’s worth keeping an eye on their website and social media channels for any upcoming promotions.

What’s New + What to Expect

With over 25 different slides and attractions, including 11 epic waterslides, a lazy river, four splash zones for kids, and five hot tubs, it’s still the largest waterpark in BC—and yes, just as fun as you remember. Whether you’re cannonballing into the pool or chilling under a cabana, there’s something for every energy level.

Other perks include:

6 on-site food spots (nachos? ice cream? done.)
150+ covered picnic tables
VIP cabana rentals
BBQ and locker rentals
Tons of green space to post up with the squad

⚠️ Pro tip: Buy your tickets online ahead of time. This place gets packed, and when a date is marked “sold out” online, there will be no walk-up tickets at the gate.

Whether you’re planning a family trip, friend hang, or just an excuse to wear that new swimsuit, Cultus Lake Waterpark is the move this summer.
