The Green, first established in 1879, has been brought back to life as part of the revitalisation of Parramatta North, an emerging Western Sydney destination. This space responds to Parramatta North’s history, including the stories from the Burramattagal people of the Dharug Nation, and of other Aboriginal people who have new and enduring connections to this place.
In collaboration with our partners, the City of Parramatta Council and the Office of Sport, The Green has accessible amenities, a rejuvenated turf playing surface, new temporary changeroom facilities and sustainable LED lighting.
Boosting participation in grassroots sport, The Green at Parramatta North will be open to the general public and local sporting groups to enjoy.
The revitalisation of Parramatta North will deliver a diversity of education, research, commercial, cultural and residential outcomes and provide key social and community infrastructure.
