The Burnaby Velodrome is situated within the Harry Jerome Sports Centre, located just below Simon Fraser University on the Barnet Highway in Burnaby. The Velodrome was built by Cycling BC and numerous volunteers between 1991 and 1997, and opened its doors in November 1997 as the first indoor velodrome in North America.

The Burnaby Velodrome is, without a doubt, one of the most exciting cycling tracks in North America. Its relatively short length (200m) and steep banking (47degrees) make riding and racing far more thrilling than at the big outdoor velodromes.
