Raging Waters in San Jose is set to reopen this summer once city leaders give the green light on a tentative agreement with a new operator, according to city officials.

The once-popular water park closed after the 2023 season, and its operator announced it wouldn't be reopening in 2024, citing declining attendance.

But Mayor Matt Mahan, along with councilmembers Domingo Candelas and Peter Ortiz, spearheaded an effort to land a new operator, California Dreamin' Entertainment, and the park is set to reopen its gates this summer, Mahan said during a news conference at City Hall on Thursday.
