Great for walks, picnics, and drone shots. There’s plenty of space for events and sports too. Perfect spot to relax or photograph the dreaming spires from a distance.

Came here in the morning just to take in the atmosphere. (It was a cloudy day) · via Google [Lisa Dunn](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/109624207071646198734/reviews) ★★★★★ Great Park to visit at any time of year. There are events all year round from common people around may to this fantastic fireworks display. The fireworks display is absolutely fantastic! It's in aid of local charities. Run by the Oxford round table. Incredibly reasonable price to get in. Various levels of ticket from a VIP tent, family tent which is great if you have little ones or SEN kids who have a habit of running. The general admission. For the quality of the display it's brilliant! Lots of food stands and fair rides. The volunteers are incredibly helpful. I'm in a wheelchair and they helped me get up and down the park by taking me and carrying my wheelchair. They couldn't have been kinder to me and my disabled daughter. The volunteers worked hard to make sure the entire event was safe, stunning and a lot of fun. Despite a few complaints from those who don't understand the concept that grass regrows the place soon goes back to its original state. It's an event I'd definitely recommend you see at least once. · via Google [See all reviews on Google →](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m4!3m3!1s0x4876c169e7bba1c1:0xf1802598f6c082b0!9m1!1b1?g_mp=Cidnb29nbGUubWFwcy5wbGFjZXMudjEuUGxhY2VzLlNlYXJjaFRleHQQAhgEIAA) Visitors say this park offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Oxford skyline, including the famous "dreaming spires," and features sprawling lawns perfect for walks, picnics, and events.
