Western Star Park

Fun & Recreation

Located in the heart of Phoenix, Western Star Park offers a variety of amenities. The newly renovated playground is a hit with families, featuring separate equipment for the little ones and older kids alike. Plenty of happy faces sliding and climbing on weekend afternoons!

If you're into sports, you'll appreciate the lighted basketball courts and tennis courts that let you keep the game going even after sunset. There's also a large open field that's well-suited for impromptu soccer matches, frisbee games, or just letting the kids run wild and burn off some energy.

Chill-Out Spots

Need a more relaxed vibe? The park offers several picnic options, including two covered ramadas and three uncovered picnic areas scattered throughout the grounds. These spots are ideal for family gatherings, birthday celebrations, or just enjoying a peaceful lunch outdoors.

Many areas benefit from generous tree shade, however you might want to bring a hat for those sections that catch full sun. Clean restrooms are available, which is always a plus when you're planning to spend a few hours outdoors.

What Makes It Special

One feature that sets Western Star apart is its lighted sand volleyball court - a rare find that allows for evening games when the Arizona heat is more forgiving. The lighting around the park really extends its usability well into the evening.

The park also offers views of South Mountain that make for a nice backdrop to your activities. Kids learning to ride bikes particularly enjoy the circular path that loops through the park. Being surrounded by residential neighborhoods gives the whole place a safe, community-oriented atmosphere.

Community Hub

Western Star has been a neighborhood gathering spot for decades. Throughout the year, various community events take place here. The open areas accommodate many types of gatherings.

Dog lovers, you can bring your furry friends along, but remember they need to stay leashed at all times - this isn't a designated dog park. The well-maintained grounds and diverse amenities at Western Star Park make it a popular spot for neighbors to meet and socialize.
