COVID-19 information and updates
Updated 19 May 2022
Safeguarding the health and safety of our visitors and staff is core to what we do at Parramatta Park. We are closely monitoring and responding to Government health advice and putting in place measures to protect our community.
Restrictions have further eased in NSW, resulting in changes for visitors to Parramatta Park:
- Outdoor gatherings – there is no limit on the number of people who can attend a gathering in our Park. Our picnic spots are open for bookings.
- COVID-19 Safe QR check-ins are only required for music festivals with more than 1,000 people.
- Masks are not required in outdoor settings. Masks are still encouraged for indoor settings where you cannot maintain a safe distance from others and for customer-facing retail staff.
We urge visitors to ensure they stay informed and comply with the latest NSW Health orders.
Pop-up COVID-19 testing clinic
A pop-up, walk-up COVID-19 testing clinic was set up at Coleman Oval in Parramatta Park on Tuesday 17 August 2021.
The COVID-19 testing clinic will be operating at reduced hours over the holiday period. Please visit the NSW Health website for the latest opening and closing times.
The pop-up clinic will help relieve pressure on the COVID-19 testing clinic at Westmead Hospital and was requested by NSW Health.
Coleman Oval was identified as a suitable location for the clinic due to its proximity to Westmead Hospital, its size and its accessibility from external streets to minimise the impact on other areas of the park and maintain distance from other park users.

- Practise cough and sneeze hygiene by covering your nose and mouth with your elbow. Tissues should be placed in bins provided.
- If you have been asked to self-isolate or have any cold or flu symptoms please respect NSW Health advice and delay your visit.
