We also worked with groups and agencies to learn about their experiences with publicly-funded recreation facilities.

Phase 2 engagement sought feedback on the proposed Facility Investment Principles and was included with the GamePLAN strategy engagement in October 2024.

The City of Calgary (The City) owns and operates over 50 recreation facilities across Calgary. Another 190 City-owned facilities are operated by third-party Partners. These facilities range in size from large multi-amenity recreation centres like Southland Leisure Centre to smaller specialized facilities like Glenmore Sailing School (see map).

GamePLAN for Facilities will provide updated planning guidelines and an investment strategy for where, when, and how The City should invest in publicly-funded recreation facilities.

Phase 1 engagement was completed in November 2022. The Phase 1 What We Heard Report can be viewed here. Please join our mailing list (top right-hand corner) to receive project updates and learn about our next opportunity for public input.

Public feedback from Phase 1 engagement was used to inform recommendations for future recreation facility investment, design and location. Thank you to everyone who took the time and provided their input.
