City recreation centres are accessible from all areas of the city, with 20 locations across Edmonton. Our community hubs are much more than fitness centres and pools; they are spaces where Edmontonians gather with friends, family and community to share unforgettable moments and connections that last a lifetime.

In 2024, total attendance at recreation and leisure centres, including outdoor pools, is 5.16 million, up from 4.86 million in 2023. Edmontonians have purchased 80,214 memberships, so far, this year, an increase from 79,665 in the same period in 2023.

Increased attendance helps to achieve broader City Plan goals by building a sense of community and belonging among Edmontonians, enhancing health and well-being, and contributing to a vibrant city.
