Recreation

Due to the ongoing threat of COVID-19 and following the Provincial and public health directives, the City of Burlington is cancelling all City-run summer programs. This includes activities such as summer camps, recreation programs, festivals and events, swimming and skating drop-ins that were originally offered in the Live & Play Guide.

Cancellations, Credits and Refunds

Organizations and residents are asked to please be patient during this time as we expect it will take 4-6 weeks as staff process this large volume of course. Those who paid using a credit card will be refunded to that same credit card if possible. All other payment methods will receive a credit to their Recreation accounts. Following the processing of all cancellations, cheque refunds for courses can be requested by emailing liveandplay@burlington.ca. Please be sure to include your full mailing address in your request. For more information on cancellations, credits and refunds please see the FAQ at burlington.ca/coronavirusfaq.

As restrictions from the Province and Public Health are lifted, the City will implement a redesigned or modified program where possible. Any programs available will be advertised. To be notified of any new programs, visit and subscribe to burlington.ca/play.

One of our adaptations to the COVID-19 physical distancing is our virtual programming. We encourage everyone to access our free virtual programming which can be found at burlington.ca/activeathome. There are golf tips, cooking lessons, crafts and more.
