Roma Street Parkland hosts an abundance of lush, scenic greenspace to enjoy a picnic with handy free barbeque facilities.
Lakeside Lawn is a tranquil space where you can take full advantage of the area’s natural shade with a canopy of leafy trees overlooking the lake. Situated next to the parkland's main barbeque area, it is the perfect spot to picnic.
Tucked away at the top of the parkland, Sunset Glade is one of Roma Street Parkland’s most secluded areas. This hidden treasure is ideal for an afternoon picnic.
Celebration Lawn is the ultimate picnic location early morning or late afternoon, located next to cascading water walls. Ideal for families, the lawn is a great spot to kick a ball around. If you’re after something more romantic, visit the Celebration Lawn in the evening. At sundown, the water walls are lit with a range of colours, providing a gorgeous backdrop to evening picnics.
The name says it all, this picturesque area is nestled in the parkland surrounded by large palms and floral displays.
The Children’s Garden is the ultimate place for kids to release all their pent up energy. Little ones can play until their heart’s content while grown-ups cook up a tasty feast. For more details on The Children's Garden, visit our playgrounds page.
