What makes it 83% Solo-Friendly: The fitness centre, climbing wall, lap pool and on-site library let a solo visitor exercise or read at will; drawback is a CAD 19 day pass and heavier family crowds on weekends.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for solo trip: Allows time for a workout, lap swim, climb session, and a library break without rushing.
Full-body workout:
Use Technogym cardio machines and strength equipment at your own pace.
Tip: Visit off-peak to avoid wait times on machines.
Climbing and bouldering:
Try auto-belay and top-rope routes to build strength and focus.
Tip: Arrive early to reserve popular auto-belay stations.
Lap swim in the Lane Pool:
Swim laps across six 25 m lanes and test the aquatic zipline or water basketball.
Tip: Bring your own goggles and towel to skip rental lines.
Sensory Swim session:
Enjoy a calm swim with dimmed lights, reduced sound, and limited capacity.
Tip: Head in Mon–Thu 1–3 PM for a quieter pool experience.
Quiet reading at Country Hills Library:
Access free Wi-Fi, books, and comfortable seating onsite.
Tip: Use the library to plan the rest of your Calgary visit.

Very poorly ran facility in terms of cleanliness, especially the family swimming change rooms. Grime has been built up that can be easily wiped, fruit flies in the showers, urinal screens were placed everywhere to help with the smell, and all changing tables were removed which makes changing babies/toddlers extremely difficult. Absolutely disgusting.

VIVO is the worst indoor basketball court I know. The court is slippery and poorly maintained. Not only that, despite having three full courts, they frequently rent them out to other sports, leaving us unable to use even one half court. I give it the worst possible review; I would not recommend it to anyone and advise against playing basketball there!

I visited for drop-in swimming and started my visit off with a very disappointing customer service experience. They requested massive amount of personal information just for a single drop-in and the requirement to create an account — full legal name, driver’s license, phone number and an emergency contact - with no explanation as to why this was as required. No other Calgary leisure centre does ...

I used to love vivo, my girls have been going there for many years. My daughter went skating today, we were not informed ( before I paid) that the arena is shared with hockey players. I don't really think that this shared option is safe. Kids playing hockey don't stay all the time on their side and pucks go to the skaters side being a hazard for them. Then a bunch of kids came onto the ice with th...
