There are two large ponds and a stream, the Gilcomston Burn,[2] flows through the south of the park.

There is a skatepark that was originally built in the 1970s and was refurbished in 2018 following an award of £105,000 to the Friends of Victoria and Westburn Park from Aberdeen City Council.

Westburn House, a Victorian A-listed building located in the centre of the park, has been derelict for almost twenty years.

In 2022, Westburn Park was host to Mela, a traditional Asian celebration of culture and community.

Aberdeen City Council cited that the venue cost too much to run,[citation needed] although it is still available for special bookings.
