Located just North of Charlotte in Kannapolis, Village Park offers multiple different attractions for kids of all ages (and their parents too. Starting April 2, 2023 most attractions will be open on the weekends only so we recommended visiting the Park on a Saturday or Sunday. Village Park offers a splash pad, Rotary Train, double decker Carousel, and multiple playgrounds grouped by age. You will definitely spend multiple hours here so pack and lunch and enjoy on the multiple picnic tables or bring a blanket and sit in the open area near the Amphitheater. We love that all attractions are handicap accessible!
