Why stay near Vortex
Vortex in Calgary refers to Vortex Action Sports, an indoor action‑sports centre that combined Olympic‑grade trampolines, an indoor skatepark, and a dedicated parkour gym. It opened in summer 2022 in northeast Calgary and drew recreational visitors alongside serious freestyle athletes. The single thing that set it apart was having all three disciplines under one roof at a scale not seen elsewhere in Alberta at the time. If you’re landing here from a “hotels near Vortex” search, the key update is this: Vortex Action Sports closed permanently in April 2024 and is no longer operating or open to visitors.
About Vortex
Vortex Action Sports was created to address a gap in Calgary’s indoor sports options, especially for trampoline, skateboarding, scooters, limited BMX use, and parkour—activities often constrained by weather. Opening in summer 2022, it became Calgary’s first all‑in‑one indoor action‑sports facility, offering year‑round training and recreation.
The centre operated from 11358 Barlow Trail NE, Unit 140, in the Stonegate Landing area near Calgary International Airport. Inside, visitors found high‑performance trampolines alongside a modular indoor skatepark and a purpose‑built parkour course. Programming included drop‑in sessions, lessons, camps, and private bookings, and it quickly became a known training spot for youth programs and freestyle athletes.
Despite early interest, Vortex Action Sports faced financial difficulties and closed permanently on April 14, 2024. As of June 11, 2026, the facility is not operating, there are no visiting hours, and there is no confirmed plan to reopen.
