Exciting news! Sandcastle has been named among the best waterparks in the nation by the U.S. News and World Report! The Better, Brighter and Fresher than Ever Sandcastle was featured in the list with a nod to our variety of attractions, nostalgic atmosphere and tasty food options.

“We’re proud to be named among the nation’s best waterparks,” says Zach Zapf, Assistant General Manager. “With our spectacular riverside location – combined with all our recent improvement projects – Sandcastle is truly the perfect place to enjoy a beautiful beach getaway right in here in Pittsburgh.”

If you haven't had the chance to check out all of our recent improvements, including the new Bombs Away freefall slide, we hope you'll check them out in 2023. And if you saw what's new last year, there's more on the way this year! New in 2023, we're excited for the full launch of the Sandcastle Bridge Bar and Grill, along with other enhanced improvements throughout the park.

All of that combined with our massive wave pool, 16 total water slides, the Lazy River, the world-famous Potato Patch fries on the Boardwalk and specialty drinks at the Sandbar means 2023 is sure to bring a Sandcastle season to remember – so why not enjoy everything Sandcastle has to offer all summer long with a 2023 Season Pass? See you Saturday, May 27!
