About the Location

A Unique Space-Themed Destination

Los Arboles Rocketship Park, located in Torrance, California, is a unique urban retreat that offers visitors an elevated view of the Los Angeles basin. The park, which spans 6.3 acres, was established in the 1960s and has since become a local favorite for families.

The park's most distinctive feature is its iconic 28-foot high rocket ship play structure, which gives the park its popular nickname "Rocketship Park". This four-level metal rocket and lunar module replica creates a one-of-a-kind setting that harkens back to the space age enthusiasm of the 1960s.

Spectacular Views

Situated on a hilltop, Los Arboles Park provides breathtaking panoramic views stretching from the ocean to downtown Los Angeles. This vantage point makes it an especially popular location for watching fireworks displays on the Fourth of July, when visitors can see numerous shows across the L.A. area.
