Wentworth Park

Wentworth Park, Public park in Glebe, Australia

Wentworth Park lies about two kilometres from Sydney's central business district, between Glebe and Ultimo. It holds several multi-purpose sporting pitches, cricket nets and fitness installations, with a playground in the southern part and picnic seating. In the centre stands the Wentworth Park Sporting Complex, whose grandstand hosts trade shows, conferences and a monthly antiques fair.

The site was originally a swamp called Blackwattle Cove before being filled with dredged harbour material between 1876 and 1880. This reclaimed land became parkland in 1882, marking the start of public use at this location.

Greyhound racing began at Wentworth Park in October 1932, with meetings held on Wednesday and Saturday nights over 520 and 720 metres. The track was converted from grass to sand in the 1990s, and hurdle racing continued until the early 1980s. The New South Wales government announced in December 2025 that the track will close by late 2027.

Public toilets stand next to the sports field, and the park is about two kilometres from Sydney's central business district. The grandstand hosts trade shows, conferences and a monthly antiques fair on the third Sunday, so parts of the grounds can be busy on those days.

On 5 October 1935 Wentworth Park hosted Sydney's first speedcar race, part of a speedway era that ran from 21 April 1928 to 28 November 1936. Riders there included future world champions Lionel Van Praag and Bluey Wilkinson. The final meeting, set for 5 December 1936, was cancelled after track damage and noise complaints.
