The new Kingsmeade Park is located in the Kingswood neighbourhood along Kingswood Boulevard.

The City gathered input from the community in 2020 and a concept design for Kingsmeade Park was completed.

In February 2021, a site amenities survey was conducted to help finalize the park design. You can find the final design on the side under key documents or in the video below.

The park will have a playground area, walking trails with interactive play elements, a boarded rink, multi-sport court area, open spaces for unstructured play, a social ice surface, an all-season social hub, and various trees and shrubs to complete the landscaped area. We are excited to move to construction in late Spring with the anticipation of some park amenities opening by the end of 2021.

This short video provided will give you an overview of the park design and introduce you to the Kingsmeade Park Playground options that were submitted through our playground tender process. A survey on the playground was open from April 15-22, 2021 to gather public feedback on possible designs.

We thank everyone who submitted their thoughts and ideas through the survey, and remember to click the Stay Informed button to the right to sign up for project updates.

    The City of St. Albert is happy to announce the completion of our newest community park – Kingsmeade Park in the Kingswood neighbourhood!

    The park is intended for use in all seasons, and has an incredible nature-themed playground area, walking trails with interactive play elements, a boarded outdoor rink, multi-sport court area, open spaces for unstructured play and an all-season social hub.

    Some park components are still to come in December 2021, including completion of the heating and lighting systems in the social hub shelter, and two pieces of playground equipment (playhouse and teeter totter) which are scheduled to be installed in spring 2022. The City is also installing some temporary park furniture as we wait for the permanent furniture to arrive.

    Enjoy the park! Plans are in the works for a grand opening event in the new year.

    • The desire to incorporate pour-in-place rubber surfacing for the playground
