When we visited Elder park, the OzAsia Festival or the Dumpling Festival was going on. The park is very neat and we'll maintained. It was lit with thousands of lanterns. The lake besides added beauty to it. Also we could see the Adelaide Oval from the park which is amazing at night and is lit with rainbow coloured lights. Playground: Good place to play Restrooms: When we visited the place, the OzAsia Festival was going on, at that time Mobile toilets were available. Dog-friendliness: We can bring our dogs to the park. Nice place for a walk with your dogs. Picnic area: Good place for picnic
What's not to love about Elder Park. Great views of the city of Adelaide. Always amazing festivals, concerts and city get togethers. The manicured park with a heritage gazebo, the Torrens River, foot bridge with waterfall all make this a great space. Highly recommended
The air is fresh, the atmosphere is filled by the green and beautiful tree. Highly recommend for those who want to go there and have a talk, picnic with your friends as well as family
Very spacious and centrally located green park in Adelaide. Almost close to everything: festival center, stadium, casino, school, malls and historical landmarks. Very famous park for where New Year Eve and Adelaide Day fireworks usually held. Situated right next at the Torrens River. Amusing rainbow light colors of Torrens Bridge is really nice to watchover from this park. As well as the city lights from high rise buildings within the area. With plenty of amusement and entertainment activities like water paddle boats, cruises and BBQ buoys. The is a family friendly park, great for outdoor bonding, with nice walking trails. Most of the historic statues and memorial monuments are located at the back side of this park.
A very beautiful location at the heart of the city. This place itself is beautiful. Also various types of multicultural programs are happening through out the year. Some are even free entry. So a great opportunity to experience others culture, taste different cuisine and explore different music. If you are lucky, may get the opportunity to see fireworks , mostly organise by event people, so it's not guaranteed. Easy access by tram, train, car, cycle. Enjoyable for all ages. The cityscape looks beautiful.
Huge open park with multiple bridges. The place is often used for major events and is a good cycle route. The main paths are well lit and the bridge has coloured lights at night. There’s a massive river going through the park that is often used by people in canoes or rowing teams
Elder Park is one of the most famous parks in Adelaide. Various large-scale events are often held here, such as New Year's Eve performances and fireworks show. This is the widest and most beautiful section of Torrens River. Water projects such as Paddle Boats and BBQ Buoys are very interesting.
Good facilities, beautiful packages, good walking and cycling lanes along the river. Great place for larger functions. Good photo scenes, foot bridge from one side of the river providing access from Adelaide festival centre to Adelaige Oval. Very little free parking unless you are willing to walk a distance, else ticket parking available around surrounding streets or parking complexes at the festival centre or behind. Will worth spending a day pinicing by the river or for walks.
Went to Lucky Dumpling Market. Park was set up great with a lot of shaded seating. Unfortunately TMR Dumplings charged me $19 for a small half bowl of rice!!! That ruined the experience
Elder Park brings back excellent memories of lovely evening and early morning walks. The river Torrens, Adelaide festival arts centre, Adelaide Oval, Adelaide Casino, Adelaide Convention Centre, and North Terrace with museum and arts centre, are all within conveniently close distance. I am not sure if the Popeye ferry still runs up and down the Torrens ricer, but that also used to be part of this lovely part of Australia.
