About Rizal Park
José Rizal Statue and Memorial at Rizal Park
Rizal Park has a 5-metre statue of José Rizal, the park's defining landmark. The park also contains a memorial to José Rizal, dated 1861 to 1896, and artwork that features him. The statue and memorial set Rizal Park apart from many neighbourhood parks in the Campbelltown area, and visitors who enjoy public art can view both as part of a visit to the park.
Children's Playground at Rizal Park
Rizal Park has a children's playground with leisure play equipment for younger visitors to climb and play on. The softfall around the playground was renewed in June 2021 under a 2020-2021 council program. Rizal Park suits families with young children, since parents can watch children on the equipment while the rest of the group sits at the picnic tables nearby. Open fields with native gardens give children extra space to run beyond the playground.
Barbecue and Picnic Area at Rizal Park
Rizal Park has public barbecue facilities, including an undercover barbecue area that shelters cooks from sun and rain. Picnic tables at Rizal Park let families and friends eat together outdoors. The park's toilets are new, and both the toilets and the barbecue facilities are kept clean. With covered cooking space and outdoor tables, Rizal Park works well as a base for a weekend group lunch or family gathering.
