Downtown

Conveniently located in the heart of Winnipeg.

The centrally located Downtown Y, Winnipeg’s oldest Y, has been evolving and actively serving the community since 1912.

The branch serves our diverse membership with healthy-living programs and activities, and works in partnership with families, schools, agencies and businesses to strengthen the community.

The modern state-of-the-art, 80,000-square-foot Downtown Y is equipped with an aquatics centre with a 25-metre, five-lane pool, a family pool and a hot tub, multiple gyms, fitness centre, running track, squash and racquetball courts, multi-purpose space and full-amenity locker rooms.

The Downtown Y offers a wide variety of health, fitness and recreation programs for people of all ages and abilities, as well as day camps, youth leadership programs, teen nights and family activities. Massage therapy, licensed childcare, drop-in babysitting and personal fitness services are also available.
