About the Venue

Citizens Park Playground is one of the clearest officially documented inclusive playgrounds in Northwest Arkansas. The City of Bentonville identifies it as a fully inclusive playground with wheelchair-accessible play decks, adaptive swings, and an adaptive zipline, all within a larger community park that also includes restrooms, picnic tables, a pavilion, parking, and a one-mile loop trail. It works well for mixed-age outings and for families who want a destination with both play value and practical basics already on site.
