During the World War I, red poppies were among the first plants to spring up in the devastated battlefields of northern France and Belgium. The poppy soon became widely accepted throughout the allied nations as the flower of remembrance.

Our 'Poppies' sculpture features four poppies standing over and protecting their fallen comrade. This is a dedication to all service personnel, resting here in Derrick Gardens as well as the family and friends who visit.

We welcome you to our annual Remembrance Day service commencing at 10.30am on Wednesday 11 November.

Join official guests, veterans and current service personnel as we commemorate and remember the brave people who served in war, conflict and peacekeeping operations.

🐾 Introducing Dogs of Centennial Park!

We love seeing so many four-legged visitors enjoying Centennial Park with their humans. They’re part of our Park community too, so we’d love to get to know them a little better.

If you’d like your pup to be part of our Dogs of Centennial Park wall and feature on our socials, pop into the Gift Shop, fill out their 'pawfile' and we’ll snap a Polaroid for the wall.

As a little thank you, you’ll receive a complimentary hot drink for you and a puppacino for your pup.

Come and join our growing dog community. 🐶💚

🐦 How many different birds can you spot at Centennial Park?

The Aussie Bird Count starts today and runs until the 25 October, inviting people across Australia to spend just 20 minutes observing and recording the birds around them.

If you’re visiting Centennial Park this week, why not take part? Find a quiet spot, keep an eye and ear out for our feathered visitors, and record what you discover.

Every count contributes to a national snapshot that helps BirdLife Australia understand how Australian bird populations are faring over time.

So, while you’re walking through the Park this week, look up and see who you can spot. 🌿🐦
