Griffith Memorial Park
Highlights
Overview
Nestled in the heart of Griffith's CBD along Banna Avenue, Griffith Memorial Park offers a serene and welcoming green space for both locals and visitors. The park features mature trees, well-maintained gardens, and shaded picnic areas, making it ideal for leisurely walks, family gatherings, or quiet reflection.
A central feature of the park is the striking 13.7-metre cenotaph, designed by architect Arthur Buckley Long, which honours over 3,000 service personnel from the region. This memorial serves as a poignant reminder of the community's history and is a focal point for ANZAC Day services.
Griffith Memorial Park is not only a place of remembrance but also a vibrant community space, hosting events such as concerts and festivals utilising the purpose-built stage. Its central location provides easy access to nearby shops and cafes, making it a perfect stop for travellers exploring the Riverina region.
For visitor convenience, the park is equipped with public amenities, including toilets and free hot showers.
