Greater Sydney Parklands brings together some of Sydney’s most iconic parks: Centennial Parklands (including Moore Park and Queens Park), Western Sydney Parklands, Parramatta Park, Callan Park and Fernhill Estate.

Combined, Greater Sydney Parklands oversees more than 6,000 hectares of parklands across Sydney, and hosts over 40 million visits each year. 

The priority for Greater Sydney Parklands is to develop new ways to involve Sydneysiders to meet local community needs, and to expand and improve public green space and parklands. In partnership with communities, state and federal government agencies, and local councils, it will champion the NSW Government’s new 50 Year Vision for Sydney’s Open Space and Parklands.

Our corporate plan provides clear direction on what we want to achieve and how we will operate. As part of the annual cycle of strategic and financial planning for our activities over the next five years, the plan clarifies how we will add value to the community, beneficiaries and the NSW Government.
