Why it's worth checking out
Stage 88 sits in Commonwealth Park in Parkes, by the lake in central Canberra. With 105 reviews behind its 4.6 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely outdoor venue for events and gatherings — a stage and green space in the beautiful Commonwealth Park that hosts concerts, festivals and community events, a genuine favourite for a day out by Lake Burley Griffin. Its location makes it an easy and welcoming stop.
Events, programs and conditions change over time and can be seasonal (Floriade and other festivals use the park). To make the most of your visit, it's worth checking what's on and the current details directly before you go, and the surrounding park is free to enjoy any time.
