During the Vancouver 2010 Olympics it will have a capacity of 6,000 people and be host to Curling and for the Paralympics, host to Wheelchair Curling. Post Games, the Vancouver Olympic/Paralympic Centre will be converted into a multi-purpose recreation centre that will include a hockey rink, gymnasium, library, eight sheets of curling ice and a lounge for the curlers.
