It’s here…the fabulous F.S. Garside is open for all to enjoy
It has been a challenging journey, from make-safe to make it fabulous, but F.S. Garside is finally open and it’s looking fantastic!
Officially opened by City of Parramatta on 21 August, 2024, the 3-hectare park has been re-built from the ground up, completely transformed into a multi-purpose park that will delight people of all ages.
Get excited for super lush and durable natural turf sports fields (opening soon once the grass has established), new spectator viewing areas and amenities. There are also simply awesome playgrounds with all the best gear for climbing, sliding and more.
The BMX pump track and flying fox will thrill, exercise stations are ready for PB challenges and there are courts for ball games.
An enclosed off-leash dog park has been included for our furry four-legged residents to enjoy with their human companions, and there is lots of new landscaping across the park including native garden beds.
More than 160 trees, 130 shrubs and 26,600 groundcover plants have been added - all predominantly Australian natives. It’s a much greener F.S. Garside which is only going to get better with time.
Plan a visit and do it all!
The $17M new F.S. Garside was funded by the NSW Government.
