Aquatics Admission and Fees

Pool Admission

DC Resident Admission

Admission to DPR pools is free to DC residents. DC residents must obtain a free membership by creating a DPR account. Additionally, a photo ID is required for entry into DPR indoor pools.

Once residents have secured their free membership by setting up a DPR account, they will be able to scan into pools using their smartphones and showing a photo ID.

To get ready to go to the pool, go to dpr.dc.gov/SwipeIn on your smartphone and log in to your DPR account. Your bar code allowing pool entry will display on the screen. 

At the aquatic center front desk, there will also be the poster below to scan and access your DPR account. Photo ID is also required to enter DPR pools.
