Interested children, aged six to 17 can tackle the impressive climbing wall from 9am to 4pm, with parents advised their consent is required for every child that climbs and have a parent/guardian in attendance.
The nearby the Pavilion Parlour will be open throughout half term, selling ice cream, drinks, snacks as well as splash pad accessories.
The town council has asked anyone visiting the Lake Pleasure Grounds via car to use nearby car parks and not double parking on Weymouth Street.
While there will be more activities across half-term, the town council also said residents will not be able to hire boats Warminster Lake Pleasure Grounds as hot weather has led to low water levels in the lake.
A spokesperson explained further updates on boat hire will be provided in due course.
