About Barossa Park
Rate
Barossa Park, officially known as the Lyndoch Recreation Park, is an Australian football and cricket facility located in the regional South Australian town of Lyndoch in the Barossa Valley. A $45 million redevelopment of the facility was completed in 2025 ahead of Gather Round, where two AFL matches will be played in April.
Works included a new multi-purpose building comprising a 300-seat event space and clubrooms with commercial kitchen, multi-sport change facilities and gym. The venue includes a mini Adelaide Oval replica bar and service area to support events and the cricket club, plus new netball courts, a recreation green and second oval, athletics track, shelters, a new playground and family garden, more carparks and a formalised roadway.
For Gather Round, Barossa Park's 5,000 capacity was doubled to 10,000 in 2025 with the installation of temporary grandstands and then further to 12,000 for 2026, while other infrastructure will be brought in including video screens, spectator and corporate facilities.
