About the Venue

War Memorial Park Splash Pad is one of Little Rock's free seasonal splash pads and sits next to the park's destination playground on West Markham. Families can pair water play with the playground, open park space, and other park amenities for a longer outing. The city lists daily operating hours during season, and the splash pad runs by touch-activating the black bollard to start a water cycle.
