About Marie Kerr Park
A Green Oasis in Palmdale
Located on the northeast corner of 30th Street West and Rancho Vista Boulevard, Marie Kerr Park spreads across 57 acres of Palmdale's landscape. The park offers a refreshing escape from the desert surroundings with its green lawns and shade trees that dot the grounds. If you're visiting, you'll find easy parking on the west side, conveniently located across from the Vons shopping plaza.
Where Palmdale Comes Alive
The Palmdale Amphitheater is a main feature of the park, hosting music performances and community events. Throughout the year, you can catch performances by artists like Chris Lane and Skillet, or join locals for special events such as the spectacular July 4th fireworks, the uplifting Gracefest, or the moving AV Vietnam memorial ceremonies.
Softball enthusiasts will appreciate the Best of the West Softball Complex, featuring multiple well-maintained fields where both competitive games and casual play unfold against Palmdale's blue skies.
Stay Active, Stay Cool
When summer temperatures climb, the community pool becomes a magnet for those looking to cool off. For those who prefer to keep their feet on solid ground, the park's winding walking and jogging paths offer a peaceful route through the grounds - ideal for your morning run or an evening stroll.
Family Fun at Every Turn
Marie Kerr Park is well-suited for families. The sprawling green spaces and picnic areas make it ideal for weekend gatherings and birthday celebrations. The playgrounds are designed with separate areas for different age groups so younger children can play safely away from older ones.
On days when outdoor play isn't in the cards, the indoor recreation area opens its doors, offering sports equipment to borrow and hosting free arts activities that spark creativity in visitors of all ages.
For the Sports Enthusiast
The park doesn't skimp on sports facilities. Basketball courts (including an indoor gymnasium), tennis courts, and soccer fields cater to athletes of various interests. Skateboarding fans have their own dedicated skate park where they can practice tricks and build community.
The large, open grassy areas accommodate many activities - from frisbee games to picnics. The park maintains a neighborhood feel despite its size.
The Practical Stuff
You'll come across clean restrooms centrally located in the park, making quick pit stops convenient no matter where your adventures take you. Dog lovers, take note - your furry friends are welcome, but you'll need to keep them under control while visiting.
Marie Kerr Park is a popular outdoor space in Palmdale, offering both natural features and useful amenities for various activities from basketball to concerts to relaxation.
