Blue Bayou Waterpark is gearing up for a splashy return next spring.
On Tuesday, Leisure Sports, a Louisiana-based company, announced plans to reopen the beloved Baton Rouge waterpark in 2026 under new management and a fresh brand. The park will operate as part of the company’s Soak’n Fun brand.
“We’re excited to introduce the Soak’n Fun experience to Baton Rouge,” said Glenn Haggerty, managing partner at Leisure Sports.
Leisure Sports, which also operates Gulf Islands Waterpark in Gulfport, Mississippi, aims to create a safe, fun and family-friendly atmosphere for both residents and visitors.
“We’re eager to assemble our team and start preparing this offseason for the grand opening in May 2026,” Haggerty added.
The announcement has sparked excitement among locals, as the waterpark has long been a cherished destination for summer fun.
