Michelle Baird Memorial Park

Park opening hours

Our parks are open during coronavirus (COVID-19) except Bridges Urban Sports Park. This park is closed.

If visiting your local park, you must follow social distancing guidance. 

Orangefield Park and Victoria Park are open 24 hours every day. The rest of our parks open at 7.30am and close at the following times throughout the year.

If a park contains a 3G pitch, park gates may remain open while the pitches are booked for play. Users must leave the park promptly after play finishes on the 3G pitches as the park gates will be locked within 15 minutes.
