    I recently visited Centennial Park for a family picnic and overall, it was a delightful experience. The best part was the ample free parking available, which made our visit hassle-free. The park boasts a picturesque pond that added to the serene atmosphere, and we enjoyed watching the ducks and other wildlife. Another highlight was the free entry to the beautiful greenhouse, where we explored a wide variety of plants and flowers. It was a great educational experience for the kids. The picnic areas were well-maintained and provided a comfortable setting for families to relax and enjoy a meal together. However, I must mention that the park tends to get crowded in the evenings, especially on weekends, which can be a bit overwhelming. Additionally, there were instances of Canadian geese causing minor disturbances, and some dog owners neglecting to pick up after their pets, which was a disappointment. Overall, despite these minor inconveniences, Centennial Park is a lovely spot for family picnics, offering free parking, a scenic pond, and a fascinating greenhouse to explore. With a bit of planning to avoid peak hours, it can be a wonderful place to spend quality time with loved ones in a natural setting.

    Centennial Park Conservatory is a must-visit! The gardens are looked after well and it offers a beautiful slice of tranquility. As I visited in the winter, proper footwear is needed to explore the park further as the trails are mostly not groomed. Excited to return in the summer!

    Nice well kept park, nice to go for a picnic. Lots of parking space and it’s so big that doesn’t feel crowded a lot. Some kids were throwing garbage in the grass, and ducks get fed by people which I nos you are not supposed to do.

    This is a beautiful park! So much space overall. Ample parking space, picnic areas, restroom available. There is go karting as well. Have been here multiple times at different entrance and it's so big and wonderful for morning walk or evening stroll or just sit by the water or an entire day picnic.

    The park with literally everything!At great spot for both winter and summer and if your into disc sports, this is the place. If you have a bike, you'll be in heaven with the awesome track they have, and if you just want to walk and chill, this is a great place. Ample of parking and a very convenient location. We went up the little hill that has a trail and my boys enjoyed it. You should visit if you haven't been here already.

    Huge park with so things to do here.. it has skiing and tobogganing on winter. There is cricket field lots of trail. Views from hills are nice. We recently held the Toronto Ancop walk here. My only concern is the parking, we hope there's more and the site we were was on the other side so we took a bit of time to find it. It is also accessible by public transportation. Over all it's a great park.

    Great place for hanging out at BMX race track or at golf course with friends. Fun to watch baseball matches. Great place to enjoy barbecue. Go-kart track is lovely too, where you can also enjoy fast cars but you would need your license, either physical or a pic would suffice too. You might want to take extra laps on Tuesdays and Thursday as it is discounted up to just $3 on each lap.

    Pretty cool picnic spot for families and large groups. Some of the picnic areas had more tree cover than others. Washrooms are decently maintained, parking can be troublesome on the weekend. The wading pool is small, bit kids had fun nonetheless.

    I’ve been here many times and this location is one of the best places to watch sunsets from. Plenty of free parking with lots of space to play sports and walk around. If you climb the hill you will get a overlook of Mississauga and Toronto in the distance.

    Beautiful oasis of horticulture! Small but packed conservatory with a wide variety of plants - flowers, trees, succulents, cacti, bromeliads, and usually a focus flower - currently cyclamens. Lovely treat in the grey winter months.

    A nice large park with lots to enjoy. During busy times, parking can be difficult to find unless you're willing to park at a more distant lot and walk.

    Centennial park is a hidden gem in the city. As much as I would like to keep it a secret , this place is amazing for its landscapes and ambiance. I loved the cherry blossoms here as they were less crowded and spacious. We enjoyed every moment here. It’s my go to place for a quiet evening.

  • 5/5 Evangeline D. 10 months ago on Google
    This is a huge one to report about it.. We've been to only one part of it from where we could see golf ground, go carting and very spacious area with picnic tables, playgrounds and beautiful trees to give shades. We had a bbq event for around 20 ppl with huge space to have fun activities like kite flying, blow bubbles, dodge ball, tag, lock and key, badminton etc..

    Itβ€˜s sakura season! 🌸 If you’re looking for a place to see cherry blossom trees, donβ€˜t miss out on Centennial Park. ☺️ There are so many cherry blossom trees near the roadway and fewer people, making it a perfect spot to take some beautiful photos. They also provide free parking so you can park your car and enjoy the cherry blossoms for as long as you like.

    Huge park and a great place to spend time with family and kids. There are lots of Cherry Blossom 🌸 trees there right next to the road, so you can even see them if you just drive through. The view is usually spectacular during the end of april when the trees are in full bloom. The Centennial Park golf centre is also nearby .

    Centennial Park in etobicoke is a great outdoor space with plenty of parking. It has paved trails making for an easy walk. There’s also disc golf which is essentially golf but played with a frisbee instead of clubs and a ball. Never heard of this sport before but we saw a few people playing and it looks fun. There is also a greenhouse which has a huge variety of plants and flowers. It’s well maintained and so enjoyable to walk through the path and examine all the different vegetation. Definitely a nice way to spend the afternoon.

    Jerkfest is always a hot vibe. Thousands of people and the space to support it. In the past I've always had VIP tickets, this year because I wasn't sure if I could make it I just paid at the door. Tickets are definitely reasonable, but next year I will definitely purchase VIP tickets. Soooo many people, I am always amazed at the volume of people attending this particular jerkfest. Seating is a rare find, and so to have space to spread out in VIP is a great idea. Definitely kid-friendly, toddler-friendly - a little more difficult. So I did find the food to be lower quality this year, not sure what was going on. I did find a hair in my jerk chicken. Next year won't be eating! I tried the jerk salmon- pretty good! So aside from the hair - it was a great experience!

    Very beautiful park with so many things to do. You can play in one of soccer fields or other sports field. You can walk or bike around the park or if you feel more athletic, you can run or bike top of the hill in the park. You can have a picnic in the picnic area. Washrooms are clean.

    The park is mostly an enormous field, which I didn't really enjoy to stroll around by myself, probably would feel better with a group. Unfortunately it doesn't have much trees, which is my personal preference, but it still has many nicely planned corners with water, trees, bushes.

    There is an indoor botanical garden with a diversity of plants. In the back of the garden, you can have a wide space for playing Frisbee and a wide range of trails to have strolling around. I highly recommend this place for everyone to visit.

    The best thing about Centennial park is that it’s ever changing! The beautiful views from the top of the ski hill and wild areas. There’s also groomed walkways and trails. I love visiting the greenhouse ESPECIALLY in the winter. It’s a nice pick me up when the snow and cold weather get you down lol.

    Such a happening place, the whole park pushes you for a healthy life style, from walk to the trails, to picnic, go carting, hiking, golfing, or simply sitting before the pond watching ducks swimming.

    What a great park! There is something for everyone; baseball diamonds, playscapes, picnic areas and Washrooms! There is a ski hill, stadium and conservatory. The park itself is massive and great for strolling around or bike riding. There are lots of shady areas and parking!

    Small indoor venue with lots to see. One way traffic for social distancing. It is warm inside so dress accordingly.

  • 5/5 Tejas K. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s surreal and beautiful. I had a soothing couple of hours in this greenhouse among such beautiful plants and flowers, it’s truly mesmerizing. I highly recommend you to visit this place. It’s free of cost and the last entry allowed is 4.45 PM. They have free parking.

    Great place to have a picnic, go for a walk, or just sit and enjoy the weather! Plenty of parking, lots of space and shaded areas to picnic. They also have frisbee golf set up to play. Flower conservatory you can visit. Not sure if the summer activities are open now due to covid.
