Indoor Recreation
In addition to the numerous opportunities for outdoor recreation, Clinton also is home to up-to-date facilities for indoor recreation, shown below.
47 MILE SPORTS COMPLEX
The arena is available for rent with ice or as a dry surface (seasonally) to accommodate large gatherings.
The most recent dry surface event was the 150th Annual Ball held in 2017. The arena was transformed with fabric draping, portable walls, and a rented dance floor, turning the arena into a formal venue. Other dry surface uses have been flea markets, Seedy Sunday, rodeo dance, and weddings. READ MORE >
Ice time is affordably priced. The 47 Mile Sports Complex could be the perfect venue for an annual hockey tournament or private skate party.
To book your time at the arena, please contact the Village office at 250-459-2261.

During the off-season, the Curling Rink is available for rent to host events such as smaller parties, training sessions, meetings, etc. The lounge area upstairs can easily accommodate 50-75 participants.

Clinton Memorial Hall
In 1920, the citizens of Clinton built the Memorial Hall, a tribute to Clinton area residents who did not return from the Great War. The hall, built by volunteers, has a spring floor, made of maple hardwood, one of the few in Canada. It is said that the floor rises up to meet the happy feet of dancing couples. READ MORE >
