Construction starts at Coronation Park Sports and Recreation Centre
Construction has started at Coronation Park Sports and Recreation Centre in the City of Edmonton. The project co-locates a community recreation centre with a velodrome that will host international sporting events.
The centre, designed by hcma and Dub Architects in association with FaulknerBrowns, aims to demystify high performance sport and encourage future generations of athletes in the community. Located within Coronation Park, the new facility will create a focal point, a wayfinding tool and a destination.
The project is being funded in part by a Government of Alberta Community Facility Enhancement Program grant of $850,000. Construction is due to complete in 2026.
'It’s great to see our community grants being used in such an innovative way. The improvements to this facility will benefit thousands of residents and high-class athletes alike, and this exciting and groundbreaking design will help revitalize the community. I look forward to seeing – and using – the facility when it is complete.'
- Ron Orr, Minister of Culture
