Planning Approved For Olympia Leisure Centre

Belfast City Council has welcomed planning approval being granted for Olympia Leisure Centre.

The new centre will replace the existing facility and will take on a dynamic new design as it will be built within the West stand of the new Windsor Park stadium development.

Director of Parks and Leisure Services in Belfast City Council, Andrew Hassard, said: "We welcome the award of the planning approval for the new Olympia Leisure Centre and will continue to work with the IFA, DCAL and Linfield FC to develop the project, as part of our £105 million investment to transform leisure across the city.


"Many of our centres are getting older and we're making plans to improve our leisure facilities and services as part of a wider investment to improve the health and quality of life of our citizens, including those who join us under Local Government Reform. These plans are in addition to our previously announced £150 million Investment Programme for the city."
