Ocean splash: 1:30 pm
Calling all Polar Bears! This year marks 25 YEARS of the Long Beach Polar Bear Splash!
Join us on Super Bowl Sunday, February 9th, for the 2025 Polar Bear Splash to take the plunge and raise funds and awareness for Make-A-Wish.
Since 2000, the Polar Bears have raised a historic $10 million to grant the wishes of children with critical illnesses. The Polar Bears are motivated by camaraderie, a touch of madness, and a common goal: To honor young Paulie Bradley's memory and keep his young spirit alive in others.
If you ever thought about becoming a Polar Bear, this is the year!
Register today and begin spreading the word to have others join you in freezing for a reason.
We encourage all participants to get their iconic Polar Bear merch prior to Splash Day by visiting the official merch site.
Merchandise sales begin at 10:00 am | Festivities begin at 12:00 pm | Ocean splash at 1:30 pm
Enter the boardwalk at Laurelton Boulevard and Broadway, Long Beach NY
