Regional Skate Park

Construction works is well underway on the Albury Regional Skate Park in David Street.

About this project

The new Albury Skate Park is now complete with the official opening held on 11 December 2021.

Construction of the new Albury Regional Skate Park commenced in April. During the construction the skate park will be closed. Other skate facilities available for use are:

The skate park proposal has been guided by skate park users and the wider community through a ‘Have a Say’ process and other feedback channels in 2018 and 2019.

The plan includes:

  • Two covered bowls – one for beginners, the other advanced
  • An extensive street skating section
  • An outdoor half basketball court
  • A fitness/parkour area

We’ve worked with skate park design specialists, PLAYCE, and skate/BMX enthusiasts to create concept designs for a skate park that will put Albury on the map as a destination for skaters and riders from far and wide.

The NSW Government, through Stronger Country Communities Fund Round three, will contribute $636,511 towards the project.
