Gisborne Aquatic Centre to temporarily close for upgrades

Last updated on 05 March 2024

Gisborne Aquatic Centre (GAC) is set to close between 2-14 April to undertake a range of essential upgrades and facility maintenance that will benefit all users.

GAC opened in 2005 and several key mechanical components are nearing their end of life, requiring renewal or replacement. Works include upgrades to the facility’s air circulation systems and building management system and software.

Council’s Director Assets and Operations, Shane Walden, said the upgrades will ensure the facility continues to operate at peak efficiency, reducing long-term maintenance costs and improving the overall user experience.

“The closure has been timed to align with the school and easter holiday period to minimise disruption to pool users and regular programs such as Learn to Swim,” he said.

“Council thanks everyone for their patience while these essential works are undertaken, and we look forward to the reopening of an improved facility for the start of term two.”
