The City of Winnipeg’s indoor pools previously closed due to COVID-19 restrictions will begin reopening to members of the public on Monday, March 29, 2021 at 25 percent capacity for aquatic sports groups, lane swimming, aquatic fitness classes, and limited public swimming.
The following indoor pools will begin opening on March 29:

- Sergeant Tommy Prince Place
- Seven Oaks

Eldon Ross Pool and St. James Civic Centre remain closed.
Residents are encouraged to book swim blocks prior to arriving at the indoor pools, as there is no guarantee of available blocks for registration upon arrival, due to capacity restrictions. The blocks will be offered on a week-by-week basis and reservations can be made up to 30 minutes in advance of the pre-reserved time (space permitting). Every Thursday, another week of swim and fitness blocks will be added to what’s available for registration.
Register at leisureONLINE to reserve an available block, or contact 311 for assistance in registering. Residents can also register on-site for available blocks, as facilities open.
There is no schedule for free swim.
