Have visited this place many times , even as a child, many years ago. We often meet friends here for a walk and talk, even having a bring your own lunch meet and greet. Lovely surroundings, great children's playground. There are lots of fountains , and that brings back memories of me wading in the fountain pools, when I was a little fella. The City of Hamilton Green Houses are in the park as is a new Tropical Green House that you can go into. There are lots of benches for a relaxing sit down. When Covid is over, they will be starting up many concerts and festivals that they were famous for before the pandemic. There is a band shell too. Lots to see and do at Gage Park.

Our visitors accessed Gage Park by City bus and I later joined them. They enjoyed the grounds throughly.

This park is a must see for a picnic, a long walk, or one of many festivals that take place in this amazing city. The stone fountains and greenhouses were part of my childhood, and are now a place I love to take my own family. The smell of chrysanthemums always takes me back to the mum show, and the festival of friends is always a great time. Picnics under shady trees, fun in the waterpark, a visit to the children's museum, and afternoons at the pride festival are only a handful of reasons to visit this beautiful greenspace. A must do.

Gage Park is very old and is a welcome sight in that area of town. Here for the 99th year is the Mum show in the new building. This building is much nicer than the old one and as usual the Mum Show is fun. Every year it's a different theme. This year the theme is bugs. This is a small venue. It doesn't take more than an hour to go through but they have a few vendors, demonstrations,
activities for kids and a little snack bar. Go earlier than later as it gets busier as the day goes on. This is an annual event for me. I look forward to it every year. Free parking and the lot is almost at the entrance. Very reasonable entry fees.

Gage Park is a really lovely place - it has a great splash pad for kids, flowerbeds, architectural features, paths, and large grassy areas. I'd totally recommend a stop by! There's a beautiful tropical greenhouse as well with plants from around the world.

Gage Park, easily one of the biggest and oldest parks in the city is by far my favorite. Ample parking off of Lawrence Rd. makes for easy accesibility and from there a smooth cinder stone path leads you around. And there's plenty to see. The park is adorned with many flower beds and gardens, huge trees, the lovely water fountain in the middle plus the newly renovated greenhouse. Ample picnic tables abound for those wishing to picnic plus a large splash pad for the little visitors in the summer. Of course the large area is made great use of during various festivals as is the bandshell. But you need not visit during those times to take in the beauty. When it comes to city parks, Gage Park is welcoming in all aspects.

Is Gage Park now open? Is there a phone number for current information as the web site seems to be very out of date?

How do you get into the greenhouse from the parking? Is it a long walk? I would like to take an elderly person. I was there once before with a friend, but we couldn't find the entrance to the show and left.

All you do is go down main and make a right on gage and go to lawrence(gage ends there). Make a left onto lawrence and then make a left into the parking lot where the lawn bowling is (just shortly after you get onto lawrence). It is a short walk from the parking lot. There is a walkway, just follow it and the entrance to the bulb show is on the left. Worth going to, you get a touch of spring.
