Parks and open spaces

Come and enjoy the great outdoors and explore the district’s 1,500 acres of parks, play areas, woodlands, sports and amenity areas. Dogs are welcome at our parks as long as they are kept under effective control and out of enclosed play areas. Please make sure you clean up after your dog.

Throughout the year the district plays host to a varied programme of events such as Lichfield Proms in Beacon Park, Cars in the Park and many more. You can also hire our parks and open spaces for events.
