    It's a nice place to go for a walk or take your kids out to play as they have swings, slides, and few more obstacles. They have tennis court where you can play but I guess you need to have a membership there. They also have skateboard ground, public ground and small caffe like place where you can buy small snacks, water, coffee stuff

    Nice spacious park with plenty of parking, first 3 hours are free & you dont need a ticket..theyve got a large kids playing area, half of it is a sand play area were the slides and climbing frames are so be prepared for kiddies to get abit mucky, theres also some swings..not alot to do for toddlers and little ones..probs spent max 15 minutes there before kiddies got bored, theres a lovely sensory garden to visit, kids had fun with the taste & smell sections..the visitor centre was closed so check for opening times before you go & the cafe onsite was heaving!!! Only wanted some hot water but kids were so unsettled by that point that there were was no way I could stand in that queue...overall ok I'd say, pleasant outing:)) Good to take scooters/bikes/activities for kiddies to play x

    Huge open space, with two places to grab a coffee or snack. Quiet areas to sit and contemplate, and children's areas too.

    Great outdoor place, perfect for what I was going to be doing. I was there to try out a trike for those of us who have disabilities or illnesses which cause us to have to use sticks and wheelchairs and various home aids to manage our daily lives. It has lovely wide paths all around it, I love the trees 🌳 there and it's a great place for families.

    Fantastic park to visit for anyone, all ages. So much to do, nice walks as long or short as you can manage, excellent facilities for both adults and kids, an amazing play and splash park which gives hours of free fun to the kids. Nice coffee outlet, just a really nice day out in the fresh air. Very quiet considering it's proximity to major roads and the city centre. Also very dog friendly.

    I parked at the park and ride, which is free for 3 hours. had a lovely walk around looking at the war memorial and into the small sensory garden and talked with the birds in the aivery . Grabbed a coffee at the cafe and carried on back to the car ... It's quite a popular park for walkers, joggers, and dog walkers . Play areas for kids and a skate park for the daring ones . Tennis courts are available ..

    I have been living in Coventry for 5 years. That's surely one of the best places to go and very very popular indeed. The park was created in memory of all the soldiers dead in WWII, every tree is dedicated to one or more people. It is very well maintained all year round, and there you can find: a shop (drinks, sandwiches, etc) with toilets, tennis court, golf course, etc. There are wooden tables with trays in the center (ready to take BBQ). It's one of the best places for jogging or just for a walk, a complete lap is circa 3km (1.8 miles).

    Regularly visited Memorial Park, whether for the park or for Godiva Festival and recently Radio 1 Big Weekend. Great park with easy public access and good open spaces and facilities. Also good place to host concerts at in general.

    Visited this park again recently to attend the Radio 1 Big Weekend festival over a 2 day period and fell in love with the place all over again! Hadn’t been there for a couple of years since moving out of Coventry. Didn’t realise how much that beautiful nature spot really means to me, brought so many wonderful memories flooding back. 😇🤩 If you ever have the opportunity to give this place a visit, please do! 🙏🏼💞 You won’t be disappointed!! 👌🏼💪🏼😇

    The Godiva Festival was really lovely even though we only spent the last few hours there. We enjoyed Sister Sledge and also the brass bands that played on one of the other stages. It was great to see so many families with at least 3, if not 4, generations of kids out and about enjoying themselves. The Memorial Park is perfect for everyone.

    So today we visited the Godiva Festival, (Sunday) well attended as always. Entry price makes the day very affordable if you bring the family. I paid £28 for a family of 5 including parking on site. An absolute bargain. But your not allowed to bring your own food or drinks in. Line up this year wasn't as strong as previous years, but a good day was had by all.

    A massive park with massive history behind it. We come here very often for walks and cycling. A highly well maintained park in the heart of the Coventry which is also the pride of the city. A site for many regular activities including highly famous Godiva festival 🥮 hosted every year. Over the years, the play area has been ruined but it was amazing when it first opened. There are few cafes with options for ice creams, drinks and snacks. Parking is free for 3 hours but you have to display the ticket for that. Don't miss that or you might get a PCN. Many people plant trees and desks for their late loved ones. Memories are precious.

    Had a wonderful walker around Memorial Park, and always have a nice walk. Kept clean and staff a friendly. There are lots of squirrels and birds around to watch. Very nice walk and plenty of routes to take. There is a bistro, playground, small skate park, tennis courts, mini golf, and a small bird house with a sensory garden. There are several memorial gardens throughout the park and a large memorial statue. Beautiful trees and a pleasant walk. Evens throughout the year, from kids clubs to the godiva festival and other events. Lovely place for all ages to enjoy the great outdoors. Several interesting information boards and memorials around the park. A lovely place for a walk or to spend the day right in the heart of Coventry. Free parking for the first three hours. Ample parking spaces and multiple entrances to the park.

    If you want to hang out and chill with the family be it for a coffee or small picnic, or even with the kids, this is the place. Take a breather and enjoy the scenery and key spots around such as the aviary, war memorial monument and more.

  • 4/5 carol n. 10 months ago on Google
    Great extensive park area been going there over 60 years but could be better play area especially climbing frames etc for older children not enough for size off park. Golf putting a waste off time and money. Cafe good space and much needed rest area , reasonable prices. Small water park area good for young children when turned on. Skateboarding area could be better . Dog freindly with plenty off picnic areas and green spaces.

    Always happy to go here. Well paved for good walking. Beautiful surroundings all year around. Good play areas. Football areas. Tennis courts and foot golf. Skateboard park. Two cafes, although closed temporarily for expansion. Mobile coffee bar available for now. Dogs have to be on leads in some areas. One main, large car park and two smaller ones. 3 hours free parking. Would highly recommend.

    People fought in wars lost their lives. That’s why people can walk peacefully and children can play happily ever after. Walk and play;🚶👼👯 Sit and meditate;🙏 Chat and rest ... 🗣 People come and people go. 👥

  • 5/5 Anastasia S. 3 years ago on Google
    Lovely place, great for a full day out with the whole family. Has a big children's playground, lots of lovely green space for a picnic, a tennis court as well as some cafes and ice cream trucks. And the name signs under almost every tree planted in memory of a veteran are a wonderful way to introduce this part of history to your children.
