Extended Operation of Public Baths Beyond Anticipated Closing Time - Do outdoor hot tubs endure for a prolonged duration compared to estimates?
In a surprising turn of events, Berlin's outdoor pools will not be extending their summer season this year, despite the high demand and the exceptionally busy week the city has experienced[1]. The pools will instead close earlier than usual, on September 7, 2025[1].
The decision to shorten the season is primarily due to budget cuts affecting the state-owned pool operators, Berliner Bäder[1]. Although the final week of operation has seen a surge in visitors, with over 150,000 people visiting from Monday to Thursday, making it one of the busiest weeks in the past four years[1], the official plan remains to close all outdoor pools early.
The pool operators are considering extending the summer season if weather conditions improve, but this remains contingent on the summer remaining stable[1]. This decision contrasts with prior years when some pools stayed open until late September or October.
The summer of 2025 has experienced comparatively cooler weather and fewer visitors overall[1]. Despite these fluctuations, the operators are committed to reacting flexibly to the weather conditions.
Some pools may stay open beyond the initial end date of September 7, but the majority will close as planned[1]. The pool operators made this announcement in the afternoon.
