About this space

Emu Park

Part of the Bowden urban renewal project, Emu Park resembles a Spanish ‘plaza’ (or ‘plaça’), a central meeting place within a town. With multiple entry points the park invites us in to sit under the multiple shaded seating options, bring a ball or a book, and enjoy the sculpture art and namesake of the park.

Within the thriving urban neighbourhood, a stone’s throw from the city, this playful park actively complements its surroundings.

Emu Park features;

· 3x3 basketball court,

· barbecue facilities

· shaded dining seating,

· playground

· urban art/ sculpture & creative signage

Bowden is designed as a walkable residential & cultural zone, with the surrounding area offering art spaces and galleries, community gardens and the Plant 4 market to explore.

Emu Park offers a lively space for gatherings, parties, celebrations, Emu Park has hosted site launches, birthday parties and family & community gatherings, is easily accessible to the city, and to public transport options.

NB. Event organisers should consider portable bathrooms (toilets) as part of the event preparation.
