NEW VELODROME HOPES TO PLACE EDMONTON ON THE WORLD CYCLING MAP

Work on the new $153M Coronation Park Sports and Recreation Centre continues and is scheduled for completion in 2026. The new centre will include a 250-metre indoor velodrome, walking/running track, fitness centre, bouldering wall, gymnasiums, multi-purpose rooms and studios, an indoor play space and have above ground access to a pool at the Peter Hemingway Fitness and Leisure Centre.

Once complete the city will seek the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Category Two designation which would qualify the city to host World Cups, Continental Championships, Junior World Championships and other national and international cycling events.
