You’ll never hear the words "there’s nothing to do" in Olds! Our community offers more than 100 acres of parks, playgrounds, picnic areas and golf courses. Water sports, hiking, camping, and all the delights of the Rocky Mountains are all readily accessible.
The Olds Sportsplex
is located at 5133 52 Avenue and features an Arena with two ice surfaces and a Curling Rink with six sheets. The main ice surface (200' x 85') is used from approximately May to August for non-ice functions (dances, shows, banquets, graduation, etc.) and from mid-August to April for ice rentals.
To book the ice facilities from September to April, call the Sportsplex at 403-556-3244.
The Auxiliary ice surface (180' x 85') is used from April to September for non-ice functions and from mid-September to March for ice rentals. The upstairs Concourse is also available for rentals, dances, shows, meetings and other functions. Lockers are also available for rent.

There is free Public Skating at the Sportsplex several times a week during the winter season. Public Skating may occasionally be cancelled due to hockey tournaments. All times are subject to change. Public Skating is generously sponsored by the Royal Canadian Legion. Thank you to this organization which does so much to enhance the life of our community throughout the year.
