People's Park, Dún Laoghaire, Public park in Dún Laoghaire, Ireland

People's Park is a 1.6-hectare public park in Dún Laoghaire, County Dublin, bounded by Summerhill Road, Park Road and the DART railway cutting. It has a central bandstand, two fountains, a children's playground, a Garden for the Blind with a tactile walking trail, and a café in the Victorian shelter. The gate lodge stands at the main entrance where Upper George's Street becomes Summerhill Road.

A Martello Tower stood on this site in 1805, shown on maps of 1817 and 1821. The land later became a quarry and was acquired by the Kingstown Town Commission in 1889. The park, designed by J. L. Robinson, opened on 29 September 1890. A revised path system replaced the formal layout by 1937.

The name reflects a philosophy of creating shared spaces for ordinary people. Today visitors see locals gathering here with family and friends, particularly for the Sunday markets that bring the grounds to life throughout most of the year.

The park is easily reached on foot from nearby Sandycove and Glasthule train stations, with entrances on Summerhill Road and Park Road. Mornings offer quieter moments, while Sunday afternoons bring crowds for the markets, so plan your visit timing based on whether you prefer solitude or activity.

The tearooms sit within an extended Victorian shelter that was carefully restored by architects Howley Hayes to maintain its original character. Today the building still displays period design details that reveal how the structure evolved from a simple seating shelter into a functioning refreshment space.
