The new undercover pavilion and water play at Regatta Park will open this afternoon.
The 112-metre-long pavilion is the final stage in the Regatta Park project and features a sandpit with slide and diggers, water play equipment, toilet amenities and kiosk.
The park is a focal point for recreation, leisure and nature on the banks of the Nepean River. It features an adventure playspace, junior cricket oval, outdoor fitness equipment, picnic and BBQ areas, green space, 90-space car park and an amenities building.
A central staircase and pathways lead to the river foreshore, with over-water viewing platforms and kayak launch areas.
Penrith City Council will seek to award an operator for the kiosk in the new year to further boost the appeal of the park and give people more dining options along the river.
A community event to celebrate the completion of Regatta Park is planned for 2025.
