Railroad Park is celebrating Birmingham's community!
Family-Friendly Fun, Good Food, Music and more!
Railroad Park Foundation hosted a picnic celebration & fundraiser at the Park on Sunday, September 28, 2025. The event was FREE to the public to welcome all Birmingham residents for a festive & fun day at Railroad Park.
Picnic at Railroad Park incorporated live music, children's activities, food & drink and more to enjoy our 19 acres - all activities were specifically designed to create excitement about Railroad Park & Birmingham!
We've experienced how important access to greenspace is for emotional & physical well-being, as well as maintaining a sense of community. Your support has a big impact in helping Railroad Park thrive as a vibrant, unifying greenspace now and for many years to come.
