A bit of a let down. Unless there is an event, you can not go inside the Worlds Fair Globe. Plus, the fountains around the stage have been drained. Doesnt make for the best scenery. Other than that, there is plenty of free parking, and clean public restroom. Beautiful walkways and lawns to spend time with your friends and family. There is even a playground area for the little ones.

Makes me proud to live in Knoxville, TN. The mountains are Gods great landscape and the parks and lay out shows the cities quality management and love for its city. So proud to be here, live and work here. Jill Stone

You got to be there, the 1982 Worlds Fair!. I remember the jingle, first time here. Its cool, will be nice once sunsphere reopens and fountains on.

Just a beautiful landscape green lawns waterfalls Creeks,with plenty of places to sit and to observe. They have a small playground for younger children. Just a gorgeous place to sit and just unwind.

The view from the Sunsphere is amazing! You can see most of Knoxville from the observation deck. The water feature at the end of the lawn is very impressive and a great place to bring the kids!

I love it! Clean and peaceful!

One of the best parks Ive been to. It has a beautiful clean family friendly environment. The playground is nice and the splash water area is alot of fun. Would recommend some swim wear or shorts on hot days. There are many different events held in the park as well. The (free) art museum is in walking distance as well as the sunsphere you can go up into to see the park below you. The restrooms were clean and stocked. Nice walking areas also.

I absolutely LOVE this spot!!! One of the best ideas Knoxville ever had was to put the fountains and playground downtown. This is a great spot to bring your family for a family friendly experience. And did I mention the best part of all, ITS FREE!!! Also, another very fun thing to do is to go in the sunsphere. Happy times, happy day!!!!

A large green area in the city. Great venue for large crowds or many activities at once. While grateful it had not been developed, I was a little disappointed in what I saw.

Beautiful park. Veterans memorial was awesome! Thank you Knoxville.

Wonderful place to take kids and family to just relax. Lots of downtown green space to throw a frisbee or have an outdoor event. Love going there!

My kids love this park/ playground. The equipment is in good condition and its an open area. I would take a friend or a cousin with you or go in a group with other kids they know because they get lonely if they dont have anyone to play with or siblings. Keep an eye on them at all times because there are people going by from every angle in a car or walking. Take water and a snack as well if you plan to stay long. I also let the kids play in the open field beside the playground where you can have a picnic or just hang out.

If youre visiting Knoxville its definitely worth your time to take a stroll here.

Its a great place to have events. Lots of space.

Even with covid lingering it is nice to see some people around the Worlds fair area. They have been managing the grass, because it is greener.

Nice park.it is not being used because of covid19

Nice park! I was volunteering at Burger Bash, which is an event to raise money for East Tennessee Childrens Hospital. The area the fundraiser was in was well kept, easily accessible, and had clean restrooms nearby. Parking was a little tricky because of the event but I was still able to find a free spot to park.

One of the most unique and interesting buildings in the country. The park around it is beautiful and well kept.

Asian Festival was today. Great event!

Great venue for all events. Beautifully surrounded by the Sunsphere,Downtown, Convention Center and the University of Tennessee.

Great venue. Most recent visit was the Great Llama race.

The City has done a fantastic job renovating this area of town. Absolutely beautiful park! Great to visit in spring and summer. Great way to keep your kids cool and entertained!

Splash pad is insane.... so much fun to play here. everyone was very friendly. we also went into the sunsphere and saw the whole city. best free day ever. really enjoyed this summer day at world fair

Great park to visit. Wide open space for pretty much anything, free parking nearby, clean restrooms, 360 view from the tower.

This place is so nicely taken care of. The observation deck is air conditioned! The parking is a little tricky.

Great place to brings the kids! They love the water. Perfect place for a picnic. Theres plenty of space to throw a blanket.

So many amazing great events, 5k, Buddy Walk, Pride Parade, and other events are our favorites. Parking is easy and accessible!

This is a pretty park in the center of Knoxville. Very pleasant to walk through and see the fountains and playground. We went to the top of the Sunsphere and saw a small exhibit about what was going on in the world in 1982.

A good place for family and friends to meet. in the summer a great place to take the kids, theres a small water fountain play area that brings a lot of Joy to the kids

Nice place to take a good look of downtown Knoxville and a great area for a family walk.

1st time here, but I loved it! Its a beautiful spot to have a festival. We were here for the Bourban, Beer, and BBQ festival. Will be back next year, and I will bring family and friends. Thanks Knoxville!

We love going to worlds fair park. The sprinklers are so fun. This area is always nice and clean. Family area. Going up in the sun sphere is always a thrill. They have Festivals and event here. Its just a great area.

The best free place in Knoxville to take your kids, meet new people, meet new animals, and just spend time with the family! My son loves this place and could spend all day here! Dont forget sunscreen!

This is one of the best place to visit with your family and friends various kinds of city view available from building with full accessibility for Disabled and senior citizens beautiful garden outside and inside washroom facilities available for disabled and senior citizens. Life is available inside to go on top.

Fun place to visit, had a lot to see!

I loved it! You can have a nice and peaceful walk. You can sit to watch the vegetation and relax, read a book, run, etc.

This place is AWSOME and its free. Theres multiple places to park. I would get there as early as possible for closer parking to fountains. Another good thing about here is that you can enjoy a family picnic or a romantic outing, or just to blow off some stress. Me and my family have been going for years!

Breath taking views, no matter the weather!

Great park, good scenery, wonderful place to walk around.

The worlds fair park is a great place to spend time. In close proximity there is the Knoxville Museum of Art, the Knoxville Downtown and the University of Tennessee campus.

Work out and/or run at this park multiple times a week, usually early in the morning. One of my favorite parks, as there are so many places completely open to be used.Lots of options and is kept well lit and well maintained.

Love taking the dogs to walk around. Kids love the splash pad.

Nice atmosphere to hang out at for a while.

Nice view. Pretty place.

Sunsphere is pretty.

Great place to just relax

Was nice place to have a wedding

Great place to visit. Playground for kids. They can play in the fountains during the summer. Go up in the worlds fair ball observation deck and see all of Knoxville, UT, Neyland Stadium, downtown, etc. There is a museum. Plus it is in walking distance of most of these places. And its free.

Small, covered outdoor venue. Stadium style seats.

Its a really cool park, definitely entertaining. We meet some cool local people. And its free you cant beat that.

Came for fire work show. Great time.

I wish there were more events here. Such a nice park! I love the water fountains. Theres a short walking trail around the park.

One of Knoxvilles best parks, water park, childrens park, walking and biking trails.

Ran at 10k here with some buddies for a guys weekend. Really awesome area

Really cute park! I love the public interactive fountains. Very good public park with a lot to see and do.

I enjoy this great area to walk in and certainly enjoy gathering downtown for a party yall.

What is that concrete track they put in? Sad

I love Knoxville Tennessee. The city is big enough to impress, with shopping and food galore, yet small enough to feel safe and somewhat quaint. We spent most of the time on foot, taking in the local offerings. You must check out the sphere in the center of downtown. There is an elevator and it is air conditioned, a saving Grace in Tennessee in the summer.

Really pretty venue. Permanent stage and the panorama obversarion was free! Thats great. Seems to have to many activities over there. I would rather to be able to see more grass.

Beautiful. Free playground, splash pad and trip up the Sunsphere.

There is never a full moment at Worlds Fair Park! From the amazing Sunsphere, to the water fountain and gorgeous landscape. You cant go wrong visiting this gorgeous park. Everyone is so friendly and you feel so safe. Free parking, free to visit the Sunsphere, & free to cool off in the HUGE water fountain/oversized splash pad. I take my toddler daughter a few times a week to play in the water and enjoy our beautiful hidden park. Its always a big hit. The art museum is also right there. :)Pokemon Trainer?? Youre in luck! Worlds Fair Park is a hot spot for rare Pokemon and Pokemon nests. Jynx, Magicarp, Magmar, Psyduck, Eevee, Nidoran, Gyarados, Polliwag, Clefairy, Jifflypuff, etc. There are around 11 Pokestops in the park and also a gym. A large portion of the day, you will find almost half of the Pokestops have continuous Lures going.All in all, its an amazing place to go as a family or all by yourself. Youre guaranteed to have a blast all year round.

Downtown Knoxvilles great green space. Always entertaining and fun as theres multiple events always scheduled throughout the summer. Avoid mid afternoon heat though as theres little shade !

My kid loves the distance from the water and the playground. Great place to lay in grass with or without a blanket. I hate walking from parking lot to general area cause its not a direct walk, but Im lazy too. There is always something going on around this area

The highlight of the park is going to the top of the Sunsphere, so make sure to come at a time when its open. The playground and splashpad/fountain areas are great for kids. There is a large bathroom facility in the middle of the park. There are now bicycles available to rent for about a dollar to ride around the park and around downtown. The park has a bike path and sidewalk that provide quick access to the river walk. Also, the parking lot usually has plenty if spaces except during major events.

Disappointing park. No benches yet big, flat rocks aplenty. Who designed this place?

Very interesting place to go. Right by the Convention Center.

This is a pleasant park.

Watched the fireworks and and this Symphony on 4th of July I had plenty Room to maneuver park was re sodded and everyone seemed to get along fabulously well. Its a nice place to go to chill out

Little over a year ago the whole family went to back to school fair. The fountain were on and my two kids had a great time. To help dry off there is a little park to run and play at. My 3 year old still yells she wants to go back to The big Gumball! Weve returned several times and I smile now thinking of all the wonderfully fun memories.

My son & I go here more than any other splash pad, its by far his favorite. About an hour before we leave, we will cross the street to the playground until we dry off. Perfect for those hot, dog days of summer & you are looking for a fun place to cool off!

Fun area with a large, grassy area and fountains, along with other interesting things to see.

So much fun! Great place to visit, picnic, hangout, especially during summer months!

The Worlds Fair Park is so beautiful but the most beautiful thing I think about it is besides the greenery and The Big Field is that they have free Wi-Fi and that helps so many people that are out here on the streets of Knoxville way to go...

Many events here, like Knoxville Symphonys free 4th of July concert.

Great place to take the kids, free fun..

I heard this is where cherry coke came from so its my favorite place on earth because as we all know cherry coke is vastly superior to all other ingestible fluids. Besides water. You need water or you will die.

Its a Ghost town today normally more people around

Well maintained park with multiple places to enjoy being outside. Grassy field, fountains, kids playset. Perfect for our family.

I love the water spouts and the play areas. The rest rooms were clean and stocked.

Amazing piece of history!! Wish we couldve stayed longer.

Nice clean park, clean bathrooms. Going up to the sunsphere was cool and free

Nice place to a walk or picnic. They have a nice playground and water splash pad. The amphitheater is a great place to catch a show. The Sunsphere is located next to the park and is free to visit. Very nice and safe place for a day or evening visit.

Asian Festival was fantastic. Had a great meal from Bombay Palace.

Must see if you are a visitor to knoxville. Huge area with a park for kids. Also, a water fountain for kids and adults to play at.

Very busy ... but still doable with young children. Older kids dont need to be sitting on the splash pad jets aiming the water at unsuspecting people. One such older (Im talking 12-14) got this one poor little boy right in the face. Scared him pretty badly. Im sure the force of the water hurt his face.

Awesome views

My daughter had the best birthday party known to man she could not stop having fun

Great place to walk around or run. Often hosts events. Very clean and safe

Great venue. Ive been to beer festivals and a wedding here. The sunsphere and Veterans Memorial are very nice and also interesting.

So much fun for the children! Clean and kid friendly but a hike from the parking lot!

Nice park but the new scooters made walking and driving impossible. Haszardous to make me never want to come back . Was ran into twice. I had my 8,5,and 3 year old son with me. Very upset !

Went to the splash pad. We had a great time. The grounds were clean. Theres no charge for the splash pad.

The worlds Fair Park is always a blast. Weve got the art museum and fort kid right there and we also have the fountains, the playfield, the park, and it all has convenient parking. On this particular day we were off on an adventure to take a four-year-old to see the sunsphere for the first time. So much fun!

Large grassy area to sit for picnics or just watch the kids play. I love the splashpad and playground.

Such a wonderful area of this city to visit

My wife and I went to the Asian Festival here and it was really nice

Definitely come by and take a load off. Its a fun relaxing place to spend some time with a partner.

It is very nice .

Beautiful place

Nice place, wish it had swings for babies.
