City Park, Bradford

City Park is Bradford Council's brilliant high-tech water feature, the largest of its kind in the UK.

City Park has many moods.

It can be a cool, tranquil and misty space, a huge, reflective watery mirror, a bubbling, squirting, popping and splashing fountain display, a brilliantly lit aqueous interactive laser artwork or a thunderous water spout, shooting over 30 metres into the air.

The Park’s computer plays 100 fountains, laser lights, mist and water effects like a maestro conducting a glorious watery symphony.

Millions of different combinations of effects can be produced.

City Park is a great place to relax, meet friends or family and enjoy a breath of fresh air.
