The Friendly Home of Curling in South Vancouver!
Here at the Marpole Curling Club we pride ourselves on being the friendliest group of curlers you’ll ever meet. With a focus on recreational curling, our club offers something for everyone, and is committed to providing the highest standard of service to participants of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.
Our facility was built in 1959 and still holds the same inviting atmosphere that it did back then. With six sheets of ice, a cafe, bar/lounge, games room and meeting room, we are able to accommodate events of all kinds. We are continuing to work on our club to ensure it is up-to-date, while still respecting its history and character.
The Marpole Curling Club acknowledges that it is situated on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
