ThingsToDoA park-led family visit →
Build a flexible outing around outdoor play, with swimming only on a separately confirmed seasonal booking.
Anthem heritage and room to play / PONTYPRIDD
Ynysangharad War Memorial Park
Make the park a breathing space in a town day: follow tree-lined paths, look for the anthem memorial and leave time for outdoor play. The garden and bandstand setting rewards a slower visit, while the Lido Play playground gives children a clear destination. Swimming next door is a separate seasonal activity with its own tickets.
Before you go
Free access to the park and playground does not mean free access to the poolside area. Keep the park visit useful even when the Lido has no suitable sessions.
