This $170 million project, being developed by Ledcor, is strategically located at 8500 40 St. N.E., in one of the city’s rapidly expanding regions. The NEAC spans 35 acres and is designed to cater to the recreational needs of residents from northeast Calgary as well as the broader city population. Among its notable features, the facility will house Calgary’s first competition-capable cricket field, alongside four outdoor multi-use artificial turf fields and a substantial 162,500-square-foot indoor fieldhouse. The complex will also include amenities such as cricket batting nets, spectator areas, team spaces, pathways, green spaces, picnic areas, and playgrounds, all aimed at fostering community engagement and promoting active lifestyles. This development aligns with GamePLAN, the City of Calgary’s comprehensive 25-year vision and strategic framework dedicated to public recreation. The completion of construction is anticipated for early 2029, marking a significant milestone in enhancing recreational opportunities in the region.
