Candler Park

Candler Park is part of Candler Park Neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia. The park is open for special events, picnics and more throughout the year. For special events one has to request approval to be held in the park such as renting the pavilions or holding a private wedding. Parks Department is available for making these requests. For those officially renting the space a $100 deposit is required.

Candler Park has a pool available throughout the summer, though it has been closed for 2011. The pool is not heated, but the warm summer months keep it at a warm enough temperature for children and adults to swim and play. The park offers a running club, PEDS advocacy group and other charity style events.

As a recreation park there are sports fields for soccer, football, baseball and other sports. There are also walkways for those who wish to stroll through the park. The grass is natural turning green with rain and the warm summer months. The park is surrounded by tall native trees and other greenery. At the pool and near the picnic areas there are facilities such as bathrooms. There are rules as to what can be brought to the park for beverages and containers.
