About Carindale Recreation Reserve
Welcome to Carindale Recreation Reserve, also known as Rocket Park, located on Bedivere Street in Carindale, Australia. This establishment is not just your ordinary park, it is a space-themed playground set within a shady nature reserve, making it a popular tourist attraction and point of interest for both locals and visitors.
As you enter Rocket Park, you will be greeted by a rocket with sound effects, a moon car, swings, a rope pyramid, and moon rocks, creating a dream playground for space enthusiasts. Please note that this is not the Rocket Park located at Ripley, so make sure you come to the right place!
In addition to the amazing playground, Carindale Recreation Reserve offers several shaded barbecue areas, ample spaces to run or kick a ball, and enough paths for little ones to ride their bikes around. There is also an adjacent basketball half court, tennis wall, and an exercise circuit, providing plenty of opportunities for physical activity.
While the playground is partially fenced, it is not fully enclosed. However, on weekends and during school holidays, you will find families enjoying the expanse of green space, playing games like frisbee and other informal family activities. The park is also a hub for local events and activities, including some of the Brisbane City Council's active parks programs.
Brisbane Kids will particularly love climbing to the top of the pyramid climbing net, enjoying the double slide for thrilling races with friends, and exploring the spinning chairs. The playground is designed to accommodate special needs, with features such as wheelchair accessible toilets and structured shade over the equipment. Large shady trees are scattered throughout the reserve, providing additional relief from the sun.
Carindale Recreation Reserve is conveniently located on Cadogan and Bedivere Streets in Carindale. If you're planning a space-themed birthday party or just looking for a fun stopover after visiting the Sir Thomas Planetarium, Rocket Park is the perfect location.
Don't worry about staying connected during your visit, as wireless internet access is available near the first car park. Whether you're looking to enjoy the playground, have a barbecue, or simply take a leisurely walk or bike ride along the bikeway and walking paths, Carindale Recreation Reserve has something for everyone.
Don't just take our word for it, hear what others have to say about their experiences at Rocket Park. One visitor in March 2012 exclaimed, "We have just been to this great playground and the rocket ship is up and running, awesome!" Another visitor shared their excitement about spotting a koala in a tree along the driveway.
Carindale Recreation Reserve is proud to be featured as the official guide to child-friendly Brisbane, offering a wide range of events, activities, and things to do for families. So, come and explore Rocket Park at Carindale Recreation Reserve and embark on a space-themed adventure like no other.

Reviews of Carindale Recreation Reserve
"Nice park, variety of space to play, walk or relax around"
"Beautiful place to rest or play and have fun whether you are a child, a young person or an adult with your pets, a 5-star place."
"Amazing huge green area. One of the favorite spots for family photoshoots. (Nadia Photo Brisbane )"
"Part of the Dec 2017 trial of parks for flying drones. This park has multiple spaces for different groups in addition to an interesting, quite large area for flying drones. This is one of the top drone trial parks I have visited. The drone area is large enough to fly safely at speed, with a raised area near the dog exercise area to stand with a good view of your drone. Recommended."
"Fantastic large space-themed playground with plenty of very creative and well designed equipment for children of all ages and abilities. Lots of shade (shade sails and trees), picnic shelters with bbq, lots of car parks. The space theme has been implemented very well, even a mars rover can be found. Ground is a mixture: partly sand, rubber and wood shavings in other places. Playground is clean, well maintained and has a lovely natural feel. Equipment for physically challenged children available. Toilets are close by. Part of Carindale Recreation Reserve with options for shorter and longer walks."
