What Is Frew Park?

Built on the former site of the Milton Tennis Centre and Milton Bowl, Frew Park pays homage to its roots with unique design features, including the iconic ‘Arena’ playground. This architectural masterpiece blends play and history, with elements inspired by the old tennis court grandstands. The playground is one of Brisbane’s most impressive, offering:

• Climbing Walls & Ledges: Ideal for adventurous kids ready to tackle new heights.
• Huge Slides: Perfect for adrenaline-filled fun.
• An Enclosed Mesh Cage: Suspended a thrilling 8 metres off the ground for a bird’s-eye view of the park.
• Swings, Balance Beams & Smaller Slides: Perfect for younger children who need safer spaces to play.

The playground’s surfaces range from rubber to concrete, making it safe and versatile for all kinds of activities.
