About the Venue

Petersburg Park is one of Louisville's more practical all-abilities park options because the play area sits within a larger recreation hub. The official park page confirms both an inclusive playground and a wheelchair-accessible playground, plus a tot lot, sprayground, restrooms, picnic shelter, and other family-friendly amenities. That combination makes it especially useful for mixed-age siblings who need more than one way to stay engaged.
