Important Notice: Rolling tiling replacement works

Updated: Thursday 21 August 2025. This post will be updated regularly as we roll through the upgrades across the Centre.

Keeping PARC in top condition

At PARC, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards for our members and guests.

Specialised facilities, like PARC, require regular upgrades to ensure the life of the building remains fit-for-purpose and safe for the community. Now 10 years old, the building has seen incredible usage and we are now embarking on an important tile replacement project across all changerooms, and some pool areas, from March to July 2025.

What work is being done?

To maintain safety, aesthetics and provide overall improvement across PARC, we will be removing and replacing the existing tiles with high-quality, durable alternatives in all changerooms, and the 50m pool bulk heads. Some space will see a full replacement, others we are replacing grouting. These upgrades will enhance the look and feel of our changerooms while ensuring they remain safe and slip resistant.

When is the scheduled maintenance period?

The works will be conducted in stages from March to September 2025, with planning for minimal disruption to our members and guests.

Current Closures

Sauna Closure, 

Please note the Sauna is closed for tiling replacement works. The maintenance works include demolishing current tiles, retiling, and replacement of all internal timber.

The Steam Room, Spa and Warm Water Pool will remain open as normal.

This is the final stage of the Rolling Tile Replacement Project. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to enhance your PARC experience with these important upgrades.

Thanks for your patience

We understand these temporary, but essential, closures may at times be inconvenient, and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve your experience.

For any questions, please speak to a member of our team or email us at member.experience@peninsulaleisure.com.au.

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to unveiling the refreshed changerooms soon.
