The City of Burlington offers both registered programs and drop-in programs. Registered programs reserve your spot for several consecutive weeks in an activity. Drop-in programs provide no long-term commitment and offer flexible attendance by paying as you play with single admission fees. We run our programs in seven recreational hubs throughout the City.
Adult 19+ is a general age guideline that means adults of all ages are welcome and can enjoy intergenerational fun and learning.

Located at the Burlington Seniors' Centre, a volunteer run Bistro offers a variety of light fare under the direction of food service professionals Monday to Friday excluding holidays. Meet for coffee before or after a program or just enjoy a home-style pastry and tea among friendly faces in this bustling environment. Modified service is currently available. Hot-plate service is temporarily unavailable.
The Bistro café service will be gradually re-opening over Spring 2022 provided regulations continue to permit food services. We will phase in beverage service starting on Monday, April 4, 2022 offering coffee, tea, milk, and juice from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday to Friday.
Seating in the Bistro lounge is again open and annex seating will also become available later in the Spring. Menu items will be added to include light fare over the course of the spring and hours will be extended as activity participation grows once again.
The Bistro café is now open. Menu offerings include hot and cold beverages, soup and sandwiches and fresh baked goods.
