Glebe Park
Like the rest of Canberra, Glebe Park was designed to transform with the four distinct seasons. In the summer the English elms provide welcome shade, in autumn they glow like molten gold.
Glebe Park offers a playground, sculptures, artwork and irrigated grass so you can enjoy feeling the earth beneath your feet.
A stage and gazebo are also available for bookings.

“Large green public park just behind Civic with a significant number of English elms and oaks.”
The area of Glebe Park is approximately 4.7 hectares, somewhat less than the 40 hectares that were originally allocated by Robert Campbell to the Anglican Church back in the early 1840's.
