Queen's Park, Invercargill, Botanical garden and park complex in Invercargill, New Zealand.

Queen's Park covers 200 acres (0.81 km2) just north of Invercargill's centre, bounded by Queens Drive, Kelvin Street, Gala Street and Herbert Street. Within it are the Southland Museum and Art Gallery site, the Southland Astronomical Society Observatory, an animal reserve with an aviary, an 18-hole golf course, a botanical garden and sports grounds, including the cricket ground used by Southland and Otago.

Queens Park was laid out as part of the original plan when Invercargill was founded in 1856, covering 200 acres just north of the city centre. The Feldwick Gates at the Gala Street entrance were built in 1924 and named after John Feldwick, brother of MP Henry Feldwick. The park later became home to the Southland Museum and Art Gallery, an astronomical observatory, and sports grounds.

The park reflects Invercargill's links to British traditions through its name and formal garden design. Visitors can see monuments and planted areas that tell stories about the region's past.

The park covers 200 acres just north of the city centre, bounded by Queens Drive, Kelvin Street, Gala Street and Herbert Street. Enter through the Feldwick Gates on Gala Street. The Saturday parkrun starts here weekly, and the cricket ground hosts Southland and Otago matches.

In 2024 tuatara from the Southland Museum, including Henry, the oldest known living tuatara, were moved into a new habitat in the animal reserve called Te Moutere – Tuatara Island. The reserve also keeps wallabies, alpacas, ostriches, rabbits and guinea pigs, and has an aviary.
