The Town of Oakville is excited to reopen our doors in the red-control zone of the province's COVID-19 framework. Residents can now register for select drop-in activities and rentals at our pools, fitness centres, gymnasiums, arenas and culture studios.
Not all facilities or amenities are available at this time. If you can't find your favourite program, check back regularly. Activities are being added as safety measures can be put in place.
Spaces are limited and available first-come, first-served. Please be courteous and cancel your booking if your plans change, so that others are able to attend. You can cancel your booking online, or call the facility directly if you are cancelling last-minute.
