About the Venue

Riverfront Splash Pad is Fergus Falls' free downtown splash pad near the Otter Tail River corridor. The city operates it daily in season, and the system automatically shuts off during stormy weather or lightning. A built-in activation button restarts the splash features on a four-minute timer, making it a straightforward spot for short splash breaks, downtown walks, and warm-weather family meetups.
