COVID Changes

The Alberta Government removed the Restriction Exemption Program (REP) requiring proof of vaccination in some businesses and facilities like The Fenlands Banff Recreation Centre. Screening for COVID symptoms will be required to enter Town programs. Details: banff.ca/COVID.

Vaccinations

Vaccinations are critical to lifting more restrictions and preventing hospitalization or death from COVID. Everyone 5 years old and older are urged to be fully vaccinated.

Visit banff.ca/COVIDhelp for Banff locations for vaccinations. The Banff Community Health Centre and local pharmacies are distributing rapid tests as supplies become available. Email help@banff.ca for questions about support services.

Be Kind. Be Safe.
