No Events

There is no designated accessible parking available at the playground.
The activity area is a grass field so caution is recommended for people with mobility issues.
The main field can be accessed via two paths – one to the side of the park, and one at the back of the park.
3 accessible picnic tables are available at the park.

There is no motor vehicle or bicycle parking available on site. Motor vehicle parking is available on local side streets. Visitors can bring their bikes in with them to the park. Please bring a lock to lock your bike.

Visitors are encouraged to bike, walk, or take transit to the event. Transit rides are free to all of our events, thanks to Sudbury Transit. Just mention to the bus driver that you’re going to a New Sudbury Days event.
Transit access is available via the Main Line connection to Route 20 Graywood / Madison Local, which travels on a loop to/from the New Sudbury Centre. See the Schedule and Map. The playground is on the north side of Lasalle, so the closest and safest stop coming from the New Sudbury Centre is 7030 at the intersection of Lasalle and Lansing (by Food Basics) where there is a signaled crossing.
All City of Greater Sudbury buses have bike racks for 2 bikes, and a bicycle may be transported on-board a bus at the driver’s discretion.
Some active transportation routes are available in the City for those wanting to bike to the event. See the City’s Recreation Map.

We want to be environmentally-friendly, so there will be recycling (blue) and composting (green) bins available at the Net Zero Waste Station by the food tent. Please help us get as close as possible to a zero waste event by using these bins and ensuring that you deposit your waste items in the correct bins. Signs will be posted and you can ask a volunteer for help if needed.
Volunteers will be sorting the bins after the event as we will be charged a processing fee if any of the bins are contaminated. Please make our job easy by choosing the right bin!
We will serve food on paper napkins to minimize the garbage generated by the event. Place all used napkins in the compost bins.
Please note that dog waste is not permitted in City garbage bins. Please pick up your dog poop and bring it home for disposal.

Tents with tables and chairs will be set up in various areas to provide shade while you listen to music or eat.
We are serving hamburgers and hotdogs, with choices for vegetarians/vegans. Our buns are not gluten-free. Your choice of a drink will include a pop, a juice box or a bottle of water. Please remember to put your juice box in the recycling bins and its straw in the garbage bins.
We encourage you to bring your own water bottles. Tap water is available in the park fieldhouse, or you can ask at the fieldhouse kitchen window to have someone fill it for you. Our outside water fountain/bottle filling station was vandalized 2 years ago and had to be removed.
If you require water for your dog, please ask at the main fieldhouse kitchen window, and we will provide you with a dog bowl and water.

Picnic tables, tables and chairs, and limited tents are available for eating.
We are serving pizza from Great Lakes Pizza at the food tent as long as the food lasts. There are no vegan options but limited vegetarian pizza will be available. Bottled water, pop, and juice boxes will also be available. Please remember to put your juice box in the recycling bins and its straw in the garbage bins.
We encourage you to bring your own water bottles, however there is no public water fountain available at the park.
We are a dog-friendly event, so if you require water for your dog, please ask at the food tent, and we will provide you with a dog bowl and water. Please note that all dogs must be on leash and that the event venue is a small area.

The First Aid Station is located at the food tent. A first aid kit is available for minor injuries and a volunteer with First Aid certification is available on site. Please ask a volunteer to call the First Aid responder if you need help. For a serious injury, please call 911 immediately. We do not have a defibrillator on site.
Volunteers will be monitoring for any unwanted behaviours. If you need help or to report inappropriate behaviour, please come to the food tent or talk to a volunteer. Volunteers will be wearing safety vests and have a name tag.
The lost child station is also at the food tent.

Our venues are all in public access areas. We will be taking photos of the event which may include photos of attendees.
The park contains playground equipment and a small pollinator garden.
