Calgary Remand Centre, Provincial correctional facility in Calgary, Canada
The Calgary Remand Centre is an adult detention facility where people awaiting trial are held before their court dates. The building holds numerous inmates across multiple areas designed to separate different types of residents.
The facility opened in the 1990s to house adults awaiting court proceedings. A major expansion followed a decade later to increase capacity.
The facility maintains dedicated programs for Indigenous inmates, providing access to Elders and traditional ceremonies within the correctional environment.
The facility sits in the northern part of the city and has specific visiting hours on different days of the week. Check ahead of time since hours may shift based on season or special circumstances.
In 2017, the center modified its operations to house only male inmates, while female detainees transferred to the Calgary Young Offenders Centre.
