Free Annual Membership: Who Qualifies?

Albuquerque’s community-center membership is free. The city requires a membership for participating in its community-center programs and facilities, and the pass must be renewed every year.

The pass is valid for access to the city’s network of 18 community centers, subject to individual program schedules and facility rules. Registration may require identification to verify the participant’s name and age.

How to Get Your Free Membership

1. Visit the city’s registration service. Open the membership link from the official Holiday Park page.
2. Create or sign in to your account. Add the appropriate household or participant information.
3. Choose the pass. Select Youth, Teen or Adult based on age.
4. Complete required details. Follow the identity, parent/guardian and program policies where applicable.
5. Submit free registration. Save your membership or pass confirmation.
6. Check renewal. Renew the pass every year before your next eligible program.

Gym, Fitness Room & Age Policies

Free membership includes eligibility for available gym and fitness-room access, subject to the facility schedule and safety rules.

Before Using the Fitness Room

• Confirm your annual membership is active.
• Check the fitness-room schedule and any temporary closure.
• Follow the age and guardian requirements.
• Wear suitable athletic clothing and footwear.
• Ask whether equipment orientation is required.
• Follow staff instructions and equipment safety rules.

Programs for Children, Teens & Families

Holiday Park has community ties with John Baker Elementary School and Hoover Middle School. The facility hosts scheduled youth and family recreation alongside adult classes.

The city’s program offerings can include after-school recreation, seasonal activities, arts, sports and youth development. Enrollment, supervision and age requirements depend on the program.

How to Enroll a Child

2. Ask whether the session is after school, seasonal or open recreation.
3. Register the child for a free Youth or Teen membership.
4. Complete required guardian, emergency contact and pickup information.
5. Check the activity schedule and capacity.
6. Confirm start dates, transportation arrangements and any materials needed.

Check the city’s seasonal youth meal sites and serving times.

Holiday Park Community Center Rental Fees

The City of Albuquerque allows approved rentals of community-center classrooms, multipurpose rooms and gymnasiums. Fees depend on whether the event is free and public, nonprofit-related, fee-based instruction or private/exclusive use.

Regular-Hours Facility Use

The rental coordinator decides the appropriate category. A birthday party or private baby shower will not qualify for Category 1 simply because it is hosted by a local resident.

After-Hours Rental Prices

After-hours rules: There is a three-hour minimum for hourly rentals. Gym pricing may rise based on attendance. Saturday half-day booking is listed for 3:30–7:30 PM, while Sunday offers half-day or full-day periods between 10 AM and 6 PM.

For more ways to calculate room charges, deposits and staffing costs, read our community center rental budgeting guide. The official Albuquerque schedule governs Holiday Park bookings.

How to Book a Room at Holiday Park

The city uses an online request and approval process. Submitting an application does not automatically reserve a room.

1. Create an Adult Community Center Pass. A current free adult pass is required before the facility rental interest form can be submitted.
2. Choose your activity. Specify whether you want a meeting, class, party, reception, workshop or another approved event.
3. Choose the space. Select Holiday Park and the type of room required.
4. Check capacity. Give the expected number of guests so the city can classify the event and choose an appropriate room.
5. Submit the request. Complete the city’s Facility Usage/Rental Interest Form with your event date and details.
6. Allow review time. Ordinary requests may take up to two weeks to process; city activities receive scheduling priority.
7. Receive an approval decision. The center supervisor and rental coordinator review space and staffing availability.
8. Complete your account. If approved, review the contract and invoice through play.cabq.gov.
9. Submit the waiver and payment. Upload required documents and pay the applicable charges.
10. Save written confirmation. The rental is confirmed only after the required fees, documents and waivers are completed.

After-Hours Reservation Deadlines

After-hours arrangements are intended for one-time large-scale events, not regularly recurring activities.

Food, Decorations, Equipment & Other Rental Rules

Albuquerque’s reservation policy sets common rules for community-center events.

Exercise classes, children’s activities and services for vulnerable groups may require additional insurance, background checks or other documentation.

Map, Parking & Directions

Holiday Park Community Center is located at 11710 Comanche Road NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111, in northeast Albuquerque.

Visitors comparing other recreation facilities in Albuquerque can review our Paradise Hills Community Center guide. Paradise Hills is operated by Bernalillo County rather than the City of Albuquerque, so its admission and reservation rules differ.

Free Recreation vs. Senior-Specific Services

Holiday Park’s classes and games are available across different age groups, including older adults. However, it is a general municipal community center rather than a dedicated senior meal or adult day-care facility.

Older adults can ask about yoga, Pilates, stretching, arts and recreational gatherings. If you specifically need senior lunches, transportation assistance, Medicare counseling or aging-related support, those services may require a dedicated provider.

Our senior community center services guide explains how to find senior meal programs, transportation, social activities and local assistance.
