AquaPark is set to become a game-changer for Pietermaritzburg, positioning the city as the new epicentre of aquatic sports in South Africa. With the completion of our world-class 50-metre Myrtha pool on the horizon, the project is well on its way to transforming both the local sporting landscape and the city’s tourism industry. The pool, equipped with cutting-edge technology, is being filled in stages to ensure every detail is checked and perfected. Under the careful oversight of John, our Facilities and Project Manager, the pool’s filling process is progressing smoothly with regular inspections to guarantee everything is leak-free and ready for use.
But AquaPark is more than just a pool; it’s a hub for talent and transformation. This facility is being designed to accommodate everything from elite training events to school meets and local or national galas, serving swimmers of all levels. Whether it’s through our Learn-to-Swim programmes, wellness initiatives for seniors, or world-class athlete training, AquaPark will offer something for everyone in the community.
AquaPark’s impact extends far beyond the water. This multi-phase development is aimed at providing a comprehensive sports and wellness environment that will elevate the region’s reputation for excellence. With John’s expertise in project management, the facility is being built to accommodate not only elite athletes but also families, schools, and the wider community. The ongoing development will continue to provide new opportunities, including more green spaces, additional amenities, and enhanced spectator areas.
AquaPark’s vision is rooted in inclusivity and transformation. By partnering with us as a sponsor or donor, you’re helping to build something that will shape the future of Pietermaritzburg’s sports and hospitality sectors. Together, we’ll foster healthier communities, bring world-class events to the city, and provide a space where local and elite talent can thrive.
Sustainability is a key priority at AquaPark. From sustainable facility design to eco-friendly building practices, we’re committed to minimising our environmental footprint while creating a world-class facility. With John overseeing all aspects of the development, every step is taken to ensure the park not only excels in performance but also leads in responsible resource use.
While the 50-metre pool is the focal point, AquaPark will feature additional amenities such as training rooms, spectator stands, and family-friendly spaces. The project is progressing in phases, with exciting new features on the horizon. As funding continues to grow, so too will the possibilities for this transformative facility.
AquaPark is more than just a sports facility; it’s a community-driven initiative that will leave a lasting legacy for Pietermaritzburg and South Africa. As we near our grand opening in 2026, we’re excited about the role AquaPark will play in shaping the future of aquatic sports and wellness.
John, with his 25 years of experience, has been instrumental in managing the project from the ground up, ensuring that every detail aligns with our vision of excellence. His leadership has been key to getting AquaPark closer to its goal of becoming the premier aquatics hub in the region.
