After nearly two years of construction, Rainbow City has officially opened its new state-of-the-art recreation center.
The city celebrated the opening of the $15 million facility with a ribbon-cutting on June 11 before hosting membership registration days ahead of the grand opening on June 15.
“This facility represents years of planning, hard work, and collaboration, and we could not be more excited to see it come to life… This is more than a building. It is a place where friendships will be formed, goals will be achieved, families will gather, and memories will be made for generations to come.”

Rainbow City Recreation Center
The 40,620-square-foot recreation center includes:
- Lap pool
- Basketball courts
- Walking track
- Splash pad
- Playground
- Amphitheater
- Meeting space
Much of the facility will have every-day use but the city is also hoping it leads to more community events like youth sports tournaments, graduation, classes and more.
The recreation center is located on Lumley Road near Rainbow City Middle School + less than a mile from the location of the old recreation center.
