Building Stronger Kelowna - Parkinson Rec Centre Redevelopment

Originally constructed in 1972, Parkinson Recreation Centre is a full-service, multi-use space that has undergone several upgrades and renovations through the years and is now reaching the end of its service life. The current facility is in poor condition, inefficient and undersized. The facility requires a multi-million-dollar investment to remain in service and analysis shows that developing a new recreation campus is a better strategic investment for Kelowna’s future than retrofitting and renovating the existing facility any further.

A new overland route to Mill Creek will also be installed.
