About the Venue

This Riverfront Park splash pad is the toddler-oriented option in Little Rock's downtown splash-pad lineup. Located in Ottenheimer Plaza west of the Marriott Hotel, it is geared toward younger children and works well for families who want a gentler water-play stop without committing to a pool visit. Its central downtown location also makes it easy to combine with a walk, playground time, or other Riverfront Park attractions.
