Jackson Park, Public park in Windsor, Ontario, Canada

Jackson Park is a 59-acre municipal space in Ontario, Canada, featuring formal gardens, sports fields, walking paths, and war memorials. The grounds contain cricket pitches, baseball diamonds, tennis courts, and picnic areas set alongside planted garden zones.

The city purchased the land in 1929 from a horse racing club and named it after Mayor Cecil E. Jackson. This acquisition established the foundation for the public park.

Jackson Park's Emancipation Day celebrations grew from small gatherings of Windsor citizens, some descendants of enslaved African Americans who came north via the Underground Railroad, into multi-day events peaking in the 1950s and 1960s. They drew hundreds of thousands of visitors from across North America, including Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, The Temptations, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks and Eleanor Roosevelt.

Jackson Park lies south of Downtown Windsor, with its 1931 entrance gates at the southeast corner of Ouellette Avenue and Tecumseh Road. Many walkways are lit and open, but some lead into shade or to spots tucked between bushes and tall plants. Washrooms and a concession are on site, and the lighted tennis courts and lawn bowling greens were upgraded in 1991.

The World War II memorial was originally an Avro Lancaster bomber, FM212, removed in 2005 after four decades of exposure to the elements. Two fibreglass aircraft, a Hawker Hurricane and a Supermarine Spitfire, now stand above a garden laid out in the shape of the Lancaster.
