The Kingsport Aquatic Center is temporarily closed for infrastructure upgrades and guest improvements – a project aimed to secure the long-term future success of the facility.

All pools will be closed during this shutdown, except for the Outdoor Lap Pool. Locker rooms will not be available during the shutdown.

The Outdoor Lap Pool hours can be found on our Hours page.

Southern Watershapes Inc., will be performing this improvement project for the city, which will include the following:

• Five pools will receive new plaster, updated tile, edge treatments, guttering improvements and new filtration components.
• Pump room upgrades will include replacement and updates to chlorine lines and related mechanical components.
• All main drains throughout the facility will receive new compliant drain covers.
• Indoor slide will receive a new gel coat finish and updated structural paint.
• Indoor splash pad spray features will receive updates and improvements.
• Outdoor leisure pool and play structure will receive updated paint and new plexiglass components.

The KAC plans to reopen the facility in January. A reopening update will be provided to the public in December.
