There will be live music, food, drinks, water, and (of course) the biggest slip 'n slide ever to hit asphalt. Don't worry, we've got it padded. This slide's got more cushion than your grandpa's orthopedic sneakers.
LET'S RECAP
1. Expect to get wet.
2. Get ready for a total block party. Good music, food, and an all-around party for the whole community.
3. You'll probably make new friends. This is an event celebrating the summer, and YOUR city.
4. Summer Style! We love to show off funky floaties, shades, and sandals. You can even wear socks with your sandals (the one place it's okay)!!
HOW IT ALL STARTED
We were inspired by the old-school 1980s backyard water slides that were essential for hot summer days. Then we grew up and decided we could totally do that down a city block. Way more epic, right?
And in case you were wondering, our slide was made right here in the good ol’ U.S. of A. and travels with us throughout the country. Like your favorite band, except you’re a part of it… and we have a way better playlist.

5 STAR REVIEWS
"My 5- and 8-year-old had a blast! We purchased the military unlimited slide bands and rode all day. All of the workers were funny and trained; they helped push you along on the slide if you were slow or stuck. We had a great time and hope to see you back next year.” - Julie
“Slide the City was awesome! I have never seen so many people in one place having so much fun. It was cool to see my favorite city street totally transformed into a water slide. Wish this was around when I was a kid!! I got great food and watched my family laugh the entire way down.” - Marco

“My friends and I got a whole crew together to go to Slide The City. It was one of the best summer hang outs we’ve had together since graduating college. We will definitely be doing this next year- and planning a group floatie brigade!” - Danny
Sustainability Matters.
We are bringing a fresh approach to water conservation. We hope to partner with cities across the country and get more people involved in the movement to conserve this precious resource.
SLIDE THE CITY FAQs!
Is there an age requirement to slide?
Like most larger-than-life rides, all sliders must be at least 5 years old and over 46 inches tall. Tubes are for one slider only, and lap riding is not allowed. If your child meets the age and height requirements, ensure they are capable of sliding 1,000 feet on their own tube! All minors must have a waiver signed by a parent or guardian.
What should I bring?
•Sunscreen
•An appropriate swimsuit (no sharp objects attached)
•Water-friendly shoes! (pavement is hot and you'll be walking)
•Cash + cards for food and merch
•All of your friends!
What does my ticket include?
An inflatable tube, mouthguard, drawstring bag, and wristband.
Is parking available?
Please check your email after registration, as information is updated regarding parking and slide times.
What do I wear?
What would you wear to a water park? Wear whatever you’re comfortable getting wet in! We advise against wearing anything with exposed zippers, rivets, or anything inappropriate for a family-friendly event. You can hold or wear your water shoes, sandals, or flip flops while you slide.
Can I participate if I have medical issues or am pregnant?
If you have a pre-existing health condition, we advise you to discuss possible participation with your doctor. We discourage participation if you are pregnant or have heart, neck, or back issues or injuries. There is always a chance you can be bumped into by another slider, fall off your tube, or be knocked off your tube.
Can my family and friends watch me slide?
Definitely! We just ask that they stay behind the fencing/caution tape for safety purposes. We also ask them not to gather at the slide’s exit point so as not to create a blockage for sliders.
What happens if there’s bad weather?
The rain just brings more slipping and sliding! For more critical weather concerns (tornados, flooding, etc.), check your Facebook event page for the most up-to-date information. If the weather is deemed dangerous by your event director or local authorities, we will email you with cancellation or postponement details.
