About Phillip Swimming & Ice Skating Centre
Phillip Swimming & Ice Skating Centre is a long-standing aquatic and recreation hub in Phillip, giving Canberra's south a place to swim laps, train and skate under one roof. At its heart is a heated 50-metre, eight-lane pool that supports everything from serious squad training to casual lap swimming, making it a practical year-round option for fitness-focused swimmers.
Alongside the pool, the centre houses a large Olympic-size ice skating rink that hosts public sessions, classes and sports such as figure skating, ice hockey and broomball, plus a kiosk for refreshments. This mix of water and ice gives the venue a distinctive, multi-activity character that appeals to individuals, families and squads alike.
For swimmers, the heated 50-metre pool and access to a qualified coach make it a genuine training environment rather than just a place to cool off. Whether you are building fitness in the water, joining a squad, or mixing swimming with time on the ice, Phillip offers Canberra locals a versatile and well-established place to stay active.
