About the Venue

Landreth Park’s north playground in Joplin was procured by the City as an inclusive, ADA-compliant play area for ages 2 to 12. It sits within a larger community park that also offers parking, restrooms, picnic pavilions, tables, grills, athletic areas, and a walking trail, making it easier for families to plan a longer visit. This is a solid option for families who want an outdoor playground with practical amenities rather than a destination-scale park.
