Booking and Attending an Event

Booking an Event

2024/2025 EVENT BOOKINGS

Event applications are now closed. All event requests will be reviewed and responded to by the end of June 2024.

Please note that as we embark on our LEAP facility expansion, we foresee some minor impacts to auxiliary spaces and parking as early as June 2024. We will provide as much notice as possible if there are any changes that may impact the 2024-2025 event season. 

We expect renovations to our Aquatic spaces to take place from July 2025 to December 2025.

A few helpful tips for completing the event application:

  • Submit any and all event requests you wish to host in the 2024/2025 season – Late event requests may not be accepted.
  • Complete one application per event you wish to host at MNP Community & Sport Centre.
  • Requests will only be accepted via the application, no email submissions please.
  • Include as much detail as possible.
  • Event bookings must align with facility hours.
  • Ensure we have the full event name listed.
  • If you are co-hosting the event with another club or organization, please make a note of this in the event information.
  • Recreational camps, training camps or small internal meets will not be approved through this application process, please put these requests in for consideration through your facility booking contact.
  • Event requests/dates are not guaranteed. As MNP Community & Sport Centre receives more than 100 event requests annually, we are unable to guarantee approval of event applications or confirm any events prior to our approval process deadline.
  • Please refrain from beginning preparations for your event until you have received official confirmation from MNP Community & Sport Centre.


Events are considered anything beyond a typical booking where setup, spectators, higher participant numbers, equipment needs, etc., are impacted.

Should there be an unforeseen emergency where a late notice event venue is required, please contact the Competition and Event Coordinator to discuss the circumstances of your request and needs.

We look forward to the opportunity to host your event!

If you have any questions or concerns prior to submitting your application, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Megan Dobson, Competition & Event Coordinator at events@MNPcentre.com

Events that are typically hosted between September-June with an anticipated number of 300+ attendees will be required to utilize MNP Community & Sport Centre’s overflow event parking located at the Indigo lot. The fee for this is $5 per car/day. This will be added to the event invoice.

The car owner will be solely responsible for the recovery of their vehicle.

Public Transportation: MNP Community & Sport Centre is located just outside of the Downtown Core between 2 LRT stops, Erlton/Stampede and Victoria Park/Stampede. From these 2 train stations, we are located across Macleod Trail, approximately a 10 minute walk. MNP Community & Sport Centre also has a bus stop outside of our door, the #10. This bus transports riders between Market Mall and South Centre Mall acting as a major bus route for those travelling North to South.
