What's On at Park in the Past

AquaPaddle

Sunday 27th July 2025

Looking for a fresh way to enjoy the water and connect with a vibrant paddling community? AquaPaddle is a free, timed 5km social paddle open to all, whether you’re cruising in a canoe, kayaking with friends, or testing your balance on a paddleboard. It’s like Parkrun, but on the water and just as energising, inclusive, and fun!

These events give you a regular focus for your paddling, while helping support the fantastic charitable work behind AquaPaddle. Participation is free, but if you’re able to donate, it helps the charity continue to do what it does best.

Please note: while joining AquaPaddle is free, entry to Park in the Past is not. Be sure to check our visitor information page for current admission prices before you arrive.

We’re thrilled to bring AquaPaddle to Park in the Past and help it grow across the UK. With Wrexham’s love for outdoor living and strong community spirit, we’re sure this event will become a local favourite, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned paddler chasing your next PB.

So grab your paddle, bring a friend, and make a splash with us. Every paddle counts!
