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. Adult 55+ programs provide activities paced and designed with the interests of this age group in mind. Meet new friends, keep active and explore your interests in one of our Adult Programs.
