Visit

We can’t wait to see you at Chester City Baths! Here’s what you need to help you plan for your visit, plus some information about what to expect when you arrive.

Staying afloat takes a little help

Chester City Baths is a charity run by volunteers with paid lifeguards and a pool manager. Sadly ticket sales alone don’t cover the costs of running our pool and maintaining the beautiful Victorian building it sits in. Be part of something special and help us preserve this special place by donating today.
