The world-famous Floriade, the flower show that Australia celebrates as a spring festival, is held every year for four weeks in this park, and I did this video during the 2025 Floriade.

But Floriade is not the only event; there is something going on in this park, including outdoor concerts and festivals.

This park has various interesting artworks and installations, like sculptures, art, and fitness activities with modern exercising equipment.

You find all amenities like picnic tables, restrooms, and cycling lanes, so I can say it's great even for an aimless visit or a leisurely walk, or maybe if you love a bike ride like I do.

Yeah, this park is part of Canberra's iconic urban landscape, offering beautiful views.
