Advanced tickets now offered at popular Union County, NJ pool park

🌊 Advanced tickets will soon be offered at a pool and a spray park in Union County

🌊 Tickets can be purchased in advance through a user-friendly platform

🌊 Having advanced tickets will hopefully cut down wait times

To help cut down on wait times and speed up entry into a popular pool and spray park in two Union County towns, advanced online tickets are being offered.

Starting Wednesday, Aug. 2, The Union County Board of County Commissioners and the Department of Parks and Recreation will launch an online ticketing system for Walter E. Ulrich Memorial Pool in Rahway, and Wheeler Spray Park in Linden.

Residents and visitors can purchase tickets in advance through a user-friendly platform to enter the pool or the spray park.

“We are excited to introduce this modern ticketing solution, which will significantly improve the way the public accesses our popular spray park and pool facilities,” Commissioner Chairman Sergio Granados said.

The goal is to simplify the ticket purchasing process and provide everyone with greater convenience while visiting the recreational sites, he added.

By scoring tickets in advance, visitors can avoid long wait times and gain prompt entry to the spray park and pool.

In response to the growing demand for more accessible and efficient ticketing services, the public will be given the opportunity to buy tickets one week in advance.

By adopting a week-by-week basis ticket release model, guests will then have the flexibility to plan their visits and secure their spot ahead of time, the County Commissioners and the Department of Parks and Recreation stated.

How do you purchase tickets?

There are two ways to purchase tickets. One, guests can scan a QR code on signage around the facilities, or two, they can visit here and follow these steps:
