About the Venue

The Waukee EPIC Inclusive Playground at Triumph Park is one of the largest inclusive playgrounds in the country and feels built for full-family outings rather than a quick stop. The 15,000-square-foot play area includes mobility device access at multiple levels, rubberized surfacing, sensory features, STEM panels, shade structures, and seating walls. It sits beside the Greater Iowa Credit Union Miracle League Field and an accessible fishing pier, with year-round restrooms next to the playground. Families across the metro use it as a destination park because it combines serious inclusive design with enough variety to keep different ages engaged.
