The newly opened Hillcrest Centre, a legacy of the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, provides a gathering place for community to enjoy recreational activities in a spectacular setting.

The Hillcrest Centre was converted from its role as curling and wheelchair curling 2010 Games competition venue, to a stunning facility featuring Vancouver’s newest and largest pool complex with indoor and outdoor pools. In addition, it boasts a community centre, an NHL-sized ice rink, a public library (Terry Salman Branch), Vancouver Curling Club, fitness centre including an indoor cycling room, gymnasium, dance studio, several multi-purpose spaces, pre-school*, out-door field houses* and Park Board administration offices.

Located at Ontario Street and East 30th Avenue, the centre is surrounded to the west and north by Queen Elizabeth and Hillcrest parks. These parks support formal gardens, the Bloedel Conservatory, a pitch & putt golf course, newly renovated playfields and Nat Bailey Baseball Stadium.
