Will Rogers Memorial Park

Will Rogers Memorial Park is a small green space in Beverly Hills centered on a fountain and fish pond, with pathways leading through rose gardens and under tall palm trees. The layout includes various areas for walking and sitting.

Originally established in 1915 as Sunset Park, it was renamed in 1952 to honor Will Rogers, who held the title of Honorary Mayor of Beverly Hills. The name change reflected the city's recognition of his importance.

The grounds served as a film set during Hollywood's early decades, hosting productions that shaped cinema history. This cinematic connection remains part of the place's local identity and links it to the entertainment world around it.

The park sits along Sunset Boulevard with restroom facilities, benches, and paved pathways suitable for wheelchairs and strollers. Its flat design and good access make it easy for everyone to navigate.

In 2014, the park received around 160 specially bred roses to mark the centennial celebration of Beverly Hills. These plantings continue to add color to the grounds each year.
