Join us for the official opening of Hosken Reserve

5 September 2024

Please join Mayor Adam Pulford and Councillors at the official reopening of Hosken Reserve. Over the past two years, we have worked hard to bring the Hosken Reserve Masterplan to life. The new and renewed spaces for play, connection and exercise are great assets the whole community can enjoy.

The state-of-the-art active recreation area offers diverse options for youth, families, and senior citizens to relax and exercise.

Key highlights include:

  • A Park Warrior Course and bouldering wall for adventurous spirits.
  • A basketball half court and specialized equipment for senior citizens.
  • New community shelters and a nature play area for families to enjoy.
  • A Tennis Pavilion along with two refurbished courts for tennis enthusiasts.
  • The North Field, shared with the Pascoe Vale Soccer Club (available from February 25).
  • A South Pitch equipped with a new scoreboard, spectator area, and sports lighting.
  • Ample car parking with 115 spaces, featuring new entry and exit points.
  • Extensive landscaping, including 242 new trees, enhanced path lighting, signage, and fencing throughout the reserve.
