About the Venue

Kensington Pool and Splash Pad combines a city pool with splash-pad play, giving families more flexibility than a standard spray-only stop. The City of Buffalo's official summer announcement lists this location at 665 Kensington Avenue. It is a strong fit for mixed-age groups where some kids want shallow splash play and others want a pool option.
