Fall/Winter 2025-26

Welcome to a new skating season. Below is an overview of the Canmore Skating Club's Fall/Winter 2025-26 programming. 

Although we try to keep program times as consistent as possible, holidays, special events and Canmore Recreation Centre events require adjustments throughout the year. Daily, weekly and monthly schedules can be found on the Monthly Calendars page (link is at the top of all pages). 

Specific dates, times and rates can be found on the REGISTRATION pages for CanSkate, CanSkate Stage 4-6 (Pre-Star), Star 1-2 Group and StarSkate / Podium Pathway programs.

We are also pleased to continue our collaboration and sharing of resources with the Banff Skating Club. For a complete view of what they offer, please visit the Banff Skating Club website.
