The 2025 Big Bobble Hats Bishopbriggs Triathlon takes place on Sunday 27 April 2025 – please plan ahead if you're attending the Leisuredrome.

The annual event – organised by a local triathlon club – involves swimming, a closed-road cycle and a canal path run.

The Leisuredrome Sports Hall will be closed to the public until 4pm on the Sunday.

For all customers going to The Gym, classes, soft play and other bookable activities, the car park will be closed until 5pm so please park safely and legally if driving to the centre, and allow an additional 10 minutes before your start time.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

We are beginning work on pool hall guttering and repairing the frontage of Kirkintilloch Leisure Centre on Monday 31 March.

This will mean we have fewer parking bays available while work crews operate, including reduced disabled parking. We will create temporary bays in the meantime and would remind customers to be mindful of other visitors and only park in marked disabled bays if you have a blue badge.

The works are expected to continue for 10 weeks. We will provide an update if there are any changes to this schedule.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while the repairs are ongoing. We, too, have been eagerly awaiting the removal of the 'big sticking plaster' from the face of the building!

As a result, the following interim arrangements are now in place:
