The council recognises the importance of play as part of children's development, which is shown in the range of equipment in the city's 45 playgrounds.

The largest play areas in Brighton and Hove are at Hove Park, St Ann's Well Gardens, Preston Park and Queens Park. There are also play areas along the seafront, all with water play, at Hove Lagoon, West Pier and Madeira Drive.

Use this link for public transport information.

Cityparks manages and maintains the play areas to ensure they are clean and safe to use, whilst still challenging for those who use them. All playgrounds are inspected on a regular basis.

The council is undertaking a two year development programme to improve the quality of the city's play spaces, making them more challenging and innovative for children and teenagers in Brighton and Hove.  For more information on this project go to the my play space pages.

The Brighton & Hove Playbus provides exciting and safe play and welcomes children from across the city. We aim to strengthen communities by providing an opportunity for children and adults to interact and make new friends.

We can only act promptly if incidents and problems are reported to us.  Please use our online form to tell us of any accidents or "near misses" that occur to help prevent any further incidents.
