Macleay Park — Attraction in Melbourne

This is a great park with lots going on - sports of many types and much room for walking including walking your dog. But the best is at the end of the year - the community event Carols in the Park organised by the Churches of North Balwyn. This year it is on Saturday 13th December and will feature Boroondara Brass and the Choir Chime, great family time from 6pm, A picnic, Sausage sizzle, pancakes, Popcorn, Icecreans, face painting and lots more. Carols start at 7:30pm and end with the Hallelujah Chorus and Fireworks. Santa, local stunt rider Dave Russell, should call by on his Suzuki Sleigh flying over 6 cars. Last year over 5000 will be present. Parking will be tight so if you can walk to it please do. But have fun!

But if you are walking your dog keep it under your control. If you can't have full control off lead then walk it on lead. By being under full control it must respond immediately when called even when...

This park holds so many memories its such a good park. Many doggies i can chase with maddy so the dogs are a 10/10 ( expect the ones that attacked us lol). always go here with friends and we have a good time and spill all the gossip which is fun. i also dont like the weird swooping birds trying to kill me and maddy. one of bad experiences at this park is when SWAS decided to DROP the MCDONALDS he had gotten for us. sad. theres not that many creepy stalkers so thats also good. I dont like that the trees are FILLED with spiders bc they can kill u. not any HUGE spiders yet like at leigh park. overall...

Football, Netball, Baseball, and cricket are all played in this park during the week and on the weekend so it is always busy. Has a nice walking track around its perimeter which is used by lots of people in the mornings for exercise. The playground is suitable for children up to 10-12 years old and it has a climbing net, swing, sea-saw, and climbing tower/slide. It has an electric barbeque (free) and a few tables for a picnic but not a lot of shade near the tables. The tables are a bit close to the road so are a little noisy at times. Nice Clean Park....
