Cultural park in downtown Charlotte
Dec 2019
The Romare Bearden Park in downtown Charlotte is a fitting tribute to the African-American artist. It's well maintained, the sculptures are great and there's a section for children. There are also kiosks and plaques that provide background on the artist.

Great place to hang out in downtown Charlotte
Dec 2021
This park is where the ACC Fan Fest was held and it was the perfect spot for it. The park is close to the baseball and football stadiums and there are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Would love to come here on a regular day and hang out.

Great for wedding
Apr 2015 • Friends
We had a wedding here on April 11th and it was beautiful. Almost feel as if you are in another city. The park is clean, well maintained and the city personnel were very helpful in getting everything set up. Wonderful for wedding pictures too.

Charlotte Christmas Village a Bust
Nov 2016 • Couples
We went to this well advertised attraction. Admittedly it was Thanksgiving afternoon, but it was advertised to be open then. There were only a few vendors and little to eat. They advertised that it would be like a German Christmas village with vendors in wooden huts. They were all in white rental tents. As one lady said to us, "For as much as this was advertised, this is the biggest nothing I have seen." Maybe they will get better as the season progresses, but we will not waste our time to go back.

nice place to stroll
Mar 2019 • Solo
I was visiting Charlotte, and the first place I stopped was this park. It was a great spring day in March, and I strolled around taking photos of the artwork, waterfall, flowers and people that were enjoying the park. There are also several restaurants that are next to the park and you can sit outside and enjoy a view of the park while you're dining. This was a nice place to spend a bit of time relaxing and enjoying the outdoors and views.

Charlotte Uptown park
Jul 2018
Yes, in Charlotte, it's officially Uptown (vs. Downtown). Romare Bearden Park is named in honor of a Charlotte native, Romare Bearden. The park is surrounded by apartments, condos, and office buildings. It is a 5-minute walk from Bank of America Stadium and across the street from the BB&T Ballpark, home of the Charlotte Knights. BTW, Parks & Recreation sponsors free summer jazz concerts with big-name artists!

Beautiful park with many festivals for adults and children. Close to the stadiums. A lot of prom pictures in the gardens as well as wedding pictures, ball fields, Italian ice cream, concerts. Beautiful flowers, safe site.

Cool quick stop
Jun 2018
Water features to cool off, cute musical activities for little kids. Nice stop to see, with beautiful plants. Large waterfall where kids can get soaked- bring a change of clothes if you plan to go somewhere after.

Not family friendly after sun sets
Sep 2017 • Family
This park is in a great location with an open area for kids to run free. However, there are lots of dogs running around too which I felt was not appropriate as some children aren't use to animals. Don't try to take young children to the park when the sun sets. It seems as if the park turns into a nightclub. It's definitely not for little ones. Great atmosphere for adults.
