City of Ottawa - What’s opening in City recreation

 

Reserve your activities

On Tuesday, February 16, the City of Ottawa will be resuming some activities at select locations. Reservations for these activities can be made on ottawa.ca beginning February 14 at 6 pm.

Water sports

For those looking to get back into the water, public and lane swims will be back at select pools. Aquafitness programs will also resume.

Weights and cardio

Gym goers will be excited to hear that weight and cardio rooms will reopen with capacity and distancing measures in place.

Ice time

If you love the ice, as of February 20 you’ll also have the opportunity to lace up indoors at select arenas. You can still skate outdoors by reserving a spot on one of the City’s refrigerated rinks or continuing to use your community rink. There is a 25-person limit on rinks, with a 12-person capacity on puddle rinks. The easing of Provincial regulations means hockey, ringette and other game play is now permitted, as long as there is no physical contact between players.

Sledding Hills

Sledding hills remain open with a 25-person limit. Keep two metres from others at all times. Stay tuned to ottawa.ca/recreation for updates.
