Erindale Leisure Centre

Erindale Leisure Centre is a multi-activity recreation venue serving Wanniassa and the surrounding Tuggeranong community in Canberra. It brings together gym facilities, aquatic activities, group exercise and indoor sport, with programs intended to support people of different ages and abilities. For members, the centre provides access to its facilities as part of a broader health and wellbeing journey, while visitors can also explore swimming, Learn to Swim and exercise options.

The aquatic facilities are a major feature. There is a heated 25-metre indoor pool, supported by a steam room and swimming and water-safety programs. The centre’s Learn to Swim offering focuses on swimming as an essential life skill, making it relevant for children and others developing their confidence in the water. The gym and exercise programs provide options for people who prefer land-based training, while two group fitness studios give the venue space for instructor-led activities.

For sport and recreation, Erindale Leisure Centre has squash courts and a flexible sports hall set up for basketball, volleyball, badminton and indoor soccer. That range makes it suitable for people training independently, joining an exercise program or taking part in indoor sport with others. Families can use the centre as a place to combine swimming, fitness and recreation, while the variety of facilities gives individuals more than one way to stay active.

The venue also extends beyond fitness. An 80-seat theatrette, a function room for up to 70 guests and a 443-seat theatre form part of the wider facility, adding community, performance and event spaces alongside the sport and aquatic areas. Erindale Leisure Centre is managed by Belgravia Leisure on behalf of the ACT Government and presents itself as an inclusive community facility, with services and programs designed to welcome and support people across the community. Located at 115 McBryde Crescent in Wanniassa, it suits locals looking for a gym, pool, organised exercise, indoor sport or a broader community recreation centre rather than a single-purpose fitness venue.
