The Leisure Access Pass

Did you know? If you’re living on a low income or receiving disability benefits like AISH, you may qualify for the Leisure Access Pass—a program that gives you free or discounted access to recreation centres, fitness classes, swimming pools, and more in your city.

For example, in Edmonton, the Leisure Access Program provides:
Free annual membership to City rec centres
75% off registered fitness and arts programs
Discounts on public swimming, skating, and facility rentals
It’s a great way to stay active, connected, and reduce stress—without the financial burden.

Apply online through your city’s website or visit a rec centre in person. You’ll need ID and proof of income or benefit status.
