About the Venue

Centennial Park Splash Pad is one of St. Cloud's city-operated outdoor splash pads, offering simple, low-friction summer water play for local families. It works well for quick cool-down visits, especially for toddlers through elementary-age kids who do best in shallow, non-pool water play. As part of the city splash pad system, it follows the seasonal St. Cloud splash pad schedule rather than year-round operation.
