Our 185 acres of Grade II* listed parkland has been awarded Green Flag and London In Bloom Gold and holds an abundance of riches with wild flower meadows, heritage parkland, ornate lakes, interactive playgrounds for families and natural habitats for a huge range of species.
Gunnersbury Park & Museum launched onto London’s cultural scene in 2018 as the destination in West London for music concerts, outdoor cinema and a host of other exciting events… but that’s not even half our story.
We could also tell you about our rich history, our local history museum winning NPO status, the 21 listed buildings and structures within our park, our brand-new sports facilities, our education and community programmes and Putt in the Park - but we’d rather show you. Watch our highlights video here.
