Many Catch the Wave locations offer pool parties, but availability depends on the facility. Some locations cannot offer parties due to pool access or layout. Check your specific location’s page for current availability.
Party rentals generally include reserved pool time, staff support to help manage safety rules and event flow, access to kid-friendly pool equipment, and use of tables and seating for food, cake, and gifts. Setup and basic cleanup support are typically included as well. Families usually bring their own food, drinks, decorations, towels, and life jackets for non-proficient swimmers. Exact inclusions are confirmed at booking so expectations are clear before the event.
Catch the Wave parties are always priced as a flat fee for the reserved time block rather than per child. This includes pool access and staffing support for the duration of your party, which is often more cost-effective for larger groups compared to per-guest pricing models.
Most families bring their own food, drinks, cake, and decorations. Tables and seating are typically provided, and your local location will confirm any guidelines related to decorations, tape, balloons, and cleanup expectations before your event.
Parents and guardians remain fully responsible for active supervision of their children at all times. Catch the Wave staff support safety rules and event flow, but do not replace parental supervision.
Catch the Wave pool parties are best for families looking for a private, indoor, warm-water celebration with built-in structure and safety support. They’re especially popular for winter birthdays, mixed-age groups, larger guest lists, and families who want a controlled pool environment without managing logistics on their own.
Yes. Catch the Wave parties take place in indoor, warm-water pools designed for year-round use, so swimmers stay comfortable even during colder months. This makes pool parties a reliable option when outdoor venues aren’t available.
Pool parties work well for a wide range of ages—from toddlers through pre-teens. Mixed-age groups are common, especially when younger or non-swimming children use life jackets and adults remain actively involved in the pool. Warm water, shallow areas, and approved safety equipment help make the experience comfortable for younger swimmers.
Guest limits are set based on pool size, deck space, and safety requirements. When you request a party time, your local location will confirm the maximum number of swimmers and total guests allowed so the pool never becomes overcrowded.
Most parties follow a simple structure: arrival and setup, swim time, then food, cake, and gifts. Your local location will confirm the exact timing, transitions, and total duration when your party is booked.
Additional time may be available depending on pool scheduling and staffing. Requests must be made in advance and may involve an additional fee if approved.
Party cancellation and reschedule policies are set by location based on staffing and pool availability. Your local team will explain deadlines, deposits, and any minimum charges during booking so there are no surprises.
Alcohol is not permitted at Catch the Wave facilities. This policy helps maintain a safe, family-focused pool environment.
Party availability depends on pool scheduling and staffing, so booking as early as possible is recommended especially for weekends and peak seasons. Your local Catch the Wave location can confirm upcoming availability and help reserve a date and time.
No. Guests do not need to be enrolled in swim lessons to attend a birthday party. All swimmers must follow party safety rules, and non-proficient swimmers are required to wear life jackets regardless of enrollment status.
Yes. Non-proficient swimmers are required to wear a properly fitted life jacket during birthday parties. Families are responsible for bringing one for any swimmer who needs it.
Yes. Families must bring life jackets for any non-proficient swimmers attending the party. Some locations may have limited options available, but availability is not guaranteed.
This can vary widely depending on the swimmer, the group, and the pool environment during a party. As a general rule, families are encouraged to err on the side of caution. If you are unsure whether a swimmer should be considered proficient for a birthday party, we recommend checking with your nearest Catch the Wave location for guidance before the event.
To reinforce BraveSwim™ survival skills, we offer optional, age-appropriate Water Safety Challenges at no additional cost:
During these challenges, swimmers practice applying their survival skills fully clothed — entering the water and demonstrating age-appropriate safety responses in more realistic conditions.
Water Safety Challenges are offered on an ongoing basis throughout the year. Please check with your local Catch the Wave office for upcoming dates and availability.
