A number of public and sporting facilities are located in the park: a major AFL stadium, a secondary football oval, a cricket field, an open air swimming pool, a number of netball courts, various sporting clubrooms, and a senior citizens centre.
The park originally stretched north to Kilgour Street until the extension of the Geelong railway to Winchelsea in 1876 isolated the north-east corner.
The clubrooms for the St Marys team are located on the western side of the oval beside Latrobe Terrace.
The third oval, whilst primarily used for cricket, is also used as the training venue for the Geelong Football Umpires association.
The Kardinia swimming pool is located on Park Crescent, and was opened by the then City of Geelong in the mid-1960s.
It also sees a number of lap swimmers due to being one of the few full length swimming pools in Geelong.
In the 2007/08 season the club made the First XI Grand Final for the first time, going down to the Ringwood Rams.
Super Rugby sides Melbourne Rebels and Waikato Chiefs played a pre-season trial at the ground on Friday February 3, 2012.
A children's playground also exists in the north-west corner, along with outdoor barbecue facilities, picnic areas and public toilets.
