Key Features of the Regatta Park Emu Plains upgrade Final Design Include:

Stage one will focus on the riverbank, from River Road to the river foreshore, and deliver:

a 112-metre pavilion
undercover play space with water activities
a new amenities building
an accessible pathway to the river foreshore, and
several over-water viewing platforms.

With bench seats and over-water viewing platforms on the river foreshore, more natural shade (with 400 trees to be planted!), large open areas for events, and other activities, kiosk with outdoor dining space, junior cricket oval and BBQ and picnic areas throughout, we are certainly looking forward to this significant community space being completed – predicted to be complete by mid-2023.

How Will The Regatta Park Emu Plains Upgrade Be Funded?

The Regatta Park Emu Plains transformation is being jointly funded with $9 million contributed by Penrith City Council and $15 million from the Australian and NSW governments through the Western Sydney City Deal’s Western Parkland City Liveability Program.

The delivery of Regatta Park and Council’s ongoing program of work to revitalise the Nepean River is set to strengthen Penrith’s position as Western Sydney’s most liveable city.

New Cafe and Restaurant – The Police Cottage

An exciting element of the Regatta Park Emu Plains upgrade is the design reuse of the Old Police Cottage. Penrith City Council is working to restore this heritage building and bring it to life with a NEW café and restaurant that offers magnificent views of the Nepean River.

Comments pertaining specifically to the use and management of the council-owned land and council-managed Crown reserves at Regatta Park Precinct can be submitted here, until 19 September 2022.
