Accessibility
- The Main Entrance can be accessed off Roy Street. Visitors can also access the back entrance off Agincourt.

Vehicle and Bicycle Parking
- No parking is available on site as we must maintain a free path in the case of an emergency. The entrance will have a barricade to deter motor vehicles from entering.
- 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.
Active Transportation and Transit
- 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 22 Grandview Local, which travels on a loop to/from the New Sudbury Centre. See the Schedule and Map. The closest stop is 6550 – corner of Roy and Woodbine.
- 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.
Waste Management - Working Towards Net Zero
- We want to be environmentally-friendly, so there will be recycling (blue) and composting (green) bins available in select locations in the park at the Net Zero Waste Stations. 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 some locations will have volunteers to help you make the right choice.
- 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!
- Please note that dog waste is not permitted in City garbage bins. Please pick up your dog poop and bring it home for disposal.
Food and Hydration
- Tables and chairs will be set up in the fieldhouse for dining.
- We are serving pancakes until they run out. Your choice of drink will include coffee, 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.
- Visitors can also dine at one of the few outdoor picnic tables.
First Aid and Security
- The First Aid Station is located at the kitchen window at the fieldhouse. 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 kitchen window at the fieldhouse building or talk to a volunteer. Volunteers will be wearing safety vests and have a name tag.
- The lost child station is also at the kitchen window at the fieldhouse.
