About Storybook Gardens: Storybook Gardens is a unique family-centred park owned and operated by the City of London. Built in 1958, Storybook Gardens is within 20 acres, located in the middle of beautiful Springbank Park. A cherished favourite family destination since 1958, Storybook is an enchanted storybook environment for young children, themed around storybooks, fairy tales and nursery rhymes.
During the spring and summer season, park features include several large themed play structures; an interactive splash pad; a large sand and water play area; six family-friendly amusement rides; as well as daily entertainment including puppet shows, stage presentations, storytellers, music, and more.
Costumed characters and mascots roam the park to delight park visitors.
On site concessions are available and parking is free.
In the winter, the park features a beautiful outdoor 250 meter skating trail. The trail is refrigerated for excellent skating conditions as the trail winds its way through the trees, filled with holiday lighting.
After your skate, enjoy a hot chocolate and a Beavertails pastry from our new Beavertails concession outlet.
Hours, admission rates, and dates of operation vary by season. For more information, please visit their website or call.
