About the Venue

Elver Park Inclusive Playground sits inside Madison's largest community park and pairs accessible play with strong outing logistics. The official park page confirms an inclusive playground plus a free seasonal splash park, shelters, parking, drinking water, and restrooms nearby. Families who want more than a quick playground stop will appreciate the broader park setting and the ability to combine play with picnic time or a summer splash visit. It is one of the city's core all-abilities playground destinations.
