Live and Play Plan

Explore Burlington’s Live and Play Plan, guiding future investments in parks, recreation and cultural facilities, including arenas, pools, playgrounds and theatres.

Parks, recreation and culture facilities play a vital role in community and individual wellbeing.

To guide future investment and respond to Burlington’s changing landscape, the Live and Play Plan (‘the Plan’) is designed to ensure that the city continues to grow as a sustainable, vibrant, and economically strong community.

The Plan will provide Burlington with direction to guide the provision of City-operated parks, recreation, and City-operated culture facilities over the next 10 years, with a longer-term outlook to 2051, and includes a review of:

  • Indoor recreation facilities such as arenas, pools and gymnasiums;
  • Outdoor recreation facilities such as sports fields and playgrounds; and
  • City-operated cultural facilities such as music centres and student theatres.
